[HTML][HTML] Sea level rise drowned a vast habitable area of north-western Australia driving long-term cultural change
For most of the period of human occupation of Sahul (the combined Pleistocene landmass of
Australia and New Guinea), lower sea levels exposed an extensive area of the northwest of …

Sand ridges from the coastal zone of southern Thailand reflect late quaternary sea-level history and environmental conditions in Sundaland
At many times during the Quaternary, when the global sea level was much lower than today
(at least 30 m), the Thai-Malay Peninsula was connected by land to the Indonesian …

Late Pleistocene emergence of an anthropogenic fire regime in Australia's tropical savannahs
At the time of European arrival on the Australian continent, sophisticated Indigenous
societies practiced land management across Australia's extensive tropical savannahs. Fire …

A continental perspective on the timing of environmental change during the last glacial stage in Australia
The timing and duration of the coldest period in the last glacial stage, often referred to as the
last glacial maximum (LGM), has been observed to vary spatially and temporally. In …

Pandanus nutshell generates a palaeoprecipitation record for human occupation at Madjedbebe, northern Australia
Little is known about the Pleistocene climatic context of northern Australia at the time of early
human settlement. Here we generate a palaeoprecipitation proxy using stable carbon …

Genomic and Acoustic Biogeography of the Iconic Sulphur-crested Cockatoo Clarifies Species Limits and Patterns of Intraspecific Diversity
Many highly recognizable species lack genetic data important for conservation due to
neglect over their hyperabundance. This likely applies to the Sulfur-crested Cockatoo …

[HTML][HTML] Last Glacial Maximum climate and atmospheric circulation over the Australian region from climate models
Abstract The Last Glacial Maximum (LGM;∼ 21 kyr ago) was the most recent time that the
Earth experienced global maximum ice volume and minimum eustatic sea level. The climate …

[HTML][HTML] Comparing pollen and n-alkane carbon isotope records in a tropical lacustrine environment
Both pollen and the carbon isotope (δ 1 3 C) compositions of long chain n-alkanes (nC 29-
31) are widely used to reconstruct changes in past vegetation in the tropics. Both …

Indigenous impacts on north Australian savanna fire regimes over the Holocene
Fire is an essential component of tropical savannas, driving key ecological feedbacks and
functions. Indigenous manipulation of fire has been practiced for tens of millennia in …

The response of wildfire regimes to Last Glacial Maximum carbon dioxide and climate
Climate and fuel availability jointly control the incidence of wildfires. The effects of
atmospheric CO 2 on plant growth influence fuel availability independently of climate, but …
