A Top-to-Bottom Luminescence-Based Chronology for the Post-LGM Regression of a Great Basin Pluvial Lake
We applied luminescence dating to a suite of shorelines constructed by pluvial Lake Clover in northeastern Nevada, USA during the last glacial cycle. At its maximum extent, the lake covered 740 km2 with a mean depth of 16 m and a water volume of 13 km3. In the north-central sector of the lake basin, 10 obvious beach ridges extend from the highstand to the lowest shoreline over a horizontal distance of ~1.5 km, representing a lake area decrease of…

The opening of the Israeli archives has determined this line of inquiry, which presents the balance of power in the region in an entirely new light. The Yishuv, the Jewish community in Palestine, was not David fighting…

The historical debate likewise continues and these debates are encapsulated in the second edition of The War for Palestine, updated to include chapters on Saudi Arabia and Lebanon. In a preface to this edition, the editors survey the state of scholarship in this contested field. The impact …
The Syrian Opposition
Although the Syrian opposition is still no match for the government in Damascus, it has made a number of advances over the last two years. Where did the opposition come from? What should Washington do now
