Gaze behavior, facial emotion processing, and neural underpinnings
BACKGROUND: Facial emotion processing deficits and atypical eye gaze are often described in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and those with conduct disorder (CD) and high callous unemotional (CU) traits. Yet, the underlying neural mechanisms of these deficits are still unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate if eye gaze can partially account for the differences in brain activation in youth with ASD, with CD, and typically…
Pollen evidence for late-Holocene climatic variability at Laguna de Aculeo, Central Chile (lat. 34°S)
A pollen record is presented from Laguna de Aculeo (33°50'S, 70°55'W, 360m a.s.l.) that documents important vegetation changes over the last 2500cal. yr in Central Chile. Grasses, composites, trees, paludal and aquatic taxa dominated the Aculeo watershed between 2500 and 100cal. yr BP under a humid climate. Large amplitude fluctuations of pollen and microalgal accumulation rates and numerous turbidite layers during this interval, however, suggest…
Early to Mid-Holocene Aridity in Central Chile and the Southern Westerlies
Central Chile (32–35°S) lies at the northern border of strong Westerly influence and thus exhibits a steep precipitation gradient. Therefore, the palaeoclimatic archives in the region are suitable for detecting past moisture changes. The study of Laguna Aculeo (33°50'S, 70°54'W) presents a multiproxy Holocene lake record including sedimentology, geochemistry, mineralogy, pollen, diatoms, and radiocarbon dating (17 dates). Results indicate an arid…
Moisture changes and fluctuations of the Westerlies in Mediterranean Central Chile during the last 2000 years
Holocene environmental changes in the Atacama Altiplano and paleoclimatic implications
Strengthened summer monsoon brought tropical/continental moisture as far south as 25oS during late-glacial and early Holocene times. Precipitation rates in the Altiplano of the western Andes (24oS) increased to 500 mm yr-1 compared to <200 mm yr-1 today. There is evidence of dramatically decreasing lake levels between 8 400 and about 3 000 yr B.P., and conditions drier than today were established. This arid period was interrupted by low-frequency…
