  • The legacy of post-Columbian disturbance in shaping a northwestern Amazonian forest

    Open Access•Lina Cabrera Sáenz, Crystal N H Mcmichael et al.•ARTICLE•The Holocene•2026•References: 32

    The ecological legacies of past human activity in modern Amazonian forests remain debated. Paleoecology helps provide long-term insights into land management practices and their ecological consequences. We analyzed fossil pollen, charcoal, phytoliths, and sediment chemistry from Añangucocha, a lake in Ecuadorian Amazonia, identifying six distinct phases of cultural use over the last 1120 years. All past cultural uses influenced vegetation composi…

  • Phytolith assemblages reflect variability in human land use and the modern environment

    Open Access•Nina H Witteveen, Cheryl White et al.•ARTICLE•Vegetation History and…•2023•Cited by: 1•References: 29

    Phytoliths preserved in soils and sediments can be used to provide unique insights into past vegetation dynamics in response to human and climate change. Phytoliths can reconstruct local vegetation in terrestrial soils where pollen grains typically decay, providing a range of markers (or lack thereof) that document past human activities. The ca. 6 million km 2 of Amazonian forests have relatively few baseline datasets documenting changes in phyto…
