Important Considerations for Research on Intimate Partner Violence-Related Brain Injury from the Enigma Consortium IPV Working Group
The Anthropocene is functionally and stratigraphically distinct from the Holocene
Evidence of an Anthropocene epoch Humans are undoubtedly altering many geological processes on Earth—and have been for some time. But what is the stratigraphic evidence for officially distinguishing this new human-dominated time period, termed the “Anthropocene,” from the preceding Holocene epoch? Waters et al. review climatic, biological, and geochemical signatures of human activity in sediments and ice cores. Combined with deposits of new mater…
Investigating the maximum resolution of μXRF core scanners
Micro x-ray fluorescence (μXRF) core scanning is capable of measuring the elemental composition of lake sediment at sub-millimetre resolution, but bioturbation and physical mixing may degrade environmental signals at such fine scales. The aim of this research is to determine the maximum possible resolution at which meaningful environmental signals may be reconstructed from lake sediments using this method. Sediment from a coastal lake in the Oute…
Lamsas, Cacwl, and the South–south Midland Dialect Boundary in Nineteenth-Century North Carolina
This article investigates the dialect boundary that separates the eastern and western halves of North Carolina using data collected by two very different projects, the Linguistic Atlas of the Middle and South Atlantic States (LAMSAS) and the Corpus of American Civil War Letters (CACWL). Using LAMSAS data collected in the 1930s from speakers born in the late-nineteenth century, Hans Kurath posited that such a boundary extended across North Carolin…
The Anthropocene
Anthropogenic changes to the Earth’s climate, land, oceans and biosphere are now so great and so rapid that the concept of a new geological epoch defined by the action of humans, the Anthropocene, is widely and seriously debated. Questions of the scale, magnitude and significance of this environmental change, particularly in the context of the Earth’s geological history, provide the basis for this Theme Issue. The Anthropocene, on current evidenc…
About All
This article argues that American English before the twentieth century has been significantly under-documented, even in works like the Dictionary of American English, because of the inaccessibility of manuscript evidence, specifically from personal correspondence. It outlines a recently initiated project, the Corpus of American Civil War Letters (CACWL), which provides such evidence from the letters and diaries of little-educated soldiers in the …

Literary Dialect as Linguistic Evidence
L'A. examine l'accord sujet-verbe tel qu'il etait effectue au 19 e siecle par sept auteurs du sud des Etats-Unis dans leur dialecte litteraire. Ces auteurs representent differents types litteraires, allant de la fiction historique au roman humoristique
