  • Mapping current and potential criminal and security issues associated with climate change mitigation technologies

    Open AccessSarah Ying Zheng, Shane D Johnson et al.ARTICLESustainable Futures2026

    Our transition to a low-carbon future critically depends on technologies to mitigate climate change (CCMTs). These include renewable energies, carbon capture, utilisation and sequestration (CCUS), and electric vehicles. As many of them are still evolving technologies, they will likely present novel crime and security risks. Unfortunately, knowledge about such risks is still limited and fragmentary. This scoping review aims to bridge this gap and …

  • Paleo-Enso influence on African environmentsand early modern humans

    Stefanie Kaboth‐bahr, William D Gosling et al.PREPRINT2022Citada por: 1

    lt;p>In this study, we synthesize terrestrial and marine proxy records, spanning the past 620,000 years, to decipher pan-African climate variability and its drivers and potential linkages to hominin evolution. We find a tight correlation between moisture availability across Africa to El Niño Southern Ocean oscillation (ENSO) variability, a manifestation of the Walker Circulation, that was most likely driven by changes in Earth’s eccentricity. Our…

  • The road from Rio to Glasgow

    Mark Maslin, Mark A MaslinARTICLEScottish Geographical Journal2020

    The last 30 years have been a period of intense and continuous international negotiation to deal with climate change.During the same 30 years, humanity has doubled the amount of anthropogenic carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.In 1989 Margaret Thatcher, the Prime Minster of the UK, gave an address to the UN outlining the science of climate change, the threat it posed to all nations, and the actions needed to avert the crisis.She summed up by saying…

  • Anthropocene

    Open AccessMark Maslin, Mark A Maslin et al.ARTICLEThe Anthropocene Review2015Citada por: 13Referências: 37

    The concept of the Anthropocene has created a profound paradigm shift within the scientific community that may well create equally important changes in philosophy and politics. There is general scientific agreement that human activity has been a geologically recent, yet profound, influence on the Earth System. The magnitude, variety and longevity of human-induced changes, to the lithosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, biosphere and atmosphere, sugg…

  • A transparent framework for defining the Anthropocene Epoch

    Open AccessSu Lin Lewis, Simon L Lewis et al.ARTICLEThe Anthropocene Review2015Citada por: 12Referências: 34

    Lewis and Maslin (2015) applied modern geological requirements to a systematic search for evidence of markers that could be used to define a new geological time unit, the Anthropocene Epoch. These must include (1) a near-permanent change to the Earth System that sets it on to a new trajectory and (2) global changes to the Earth System recorded in a number of stratigraphic deposits worldwide to provide a correlative boundary event or marker called…

  • Paleovegetation Simulations of Lowland Amazonia and Implications for Neotropical Allopatry and Speciation

    Open AccessSharon A Cowling, Mark Maslin et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2001

    Paleovegetation modeling simulations of the lowland Amazon basin were made to assess the relative importance of glacial climate and atmospheric CO 2 for altering vegetation type and structure, as well as to explore the potential physiological mechanisms underlying these ecosystem-level responses. Modeling results support the view that widespread invasion of grasslands into the Amazon lowlands during the last glaciation was not likely. Glacial coo…

  • Late Quaternary Vegetation and Climate Change in the Amazon Basin Based on a 50,000 Year Pollen Record from the Amazon Fan, ODP Site 932

    Open AccessSimon Haberle, Simon G Haberle et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research1999

    Hemipelagic sediments from the Amazon deep-sea fan, ODP Site 932 (5° 12.7′N, 47° 1.8′W), and continental shelf provide a 50,000-yr-long pollen record of Amazon Basin vegetation. The age model for Hole 932A is constrained by eight magnetic remanence intensity features, one paleomagnetic excursion, and three AMS 14 C dates. Alchornea, Melastomataceae, Myrtaceae, and Moraceae/Urticaceae are dominant taxa in the pollen record between 40,200 and 19,80…
