The role of Quaternary ice sheet fluctuations in driving meltwater pulses and ocean
circulation perturbations is widely acknowledged. What is less clear is the role of these …

Loess deposits along the northern fringe of the European loess belt potentially record past
changes in dust emission from areas proximal to former ice sheets. Recent chronologies …

Mollisols represent 29% of agricultural land and they are considered to be one of the most
fertile soils in the world. Here, we compare soil organic carbon (SOC) concentrations and …

Long-term rates of escarpment retreat in sedimentary tablelands have been rarely
determined and their possible variability in relation to major environmental changes has …

In countless modern geochemical studies, diverse biological and geologic samples are
analyzed for Sr, Nd, and Pb isotopic composition. Such heterogeneity presents challenges …

Soil properties reflect a host of environmental conditions and land-use patterns. Formation of
cultural landscapes may well be studied at barrow cemeteries, which give the opportunity of …

Very different soil types occur across a few tens of meters on dolostone, in a never glaciated
karst landscape in the Lombard Pre-Alps (Selvino, Italy). This substrate is locally enriched in …

Texturally bipartite and stagno-gleyed Planosols are becoming more commonly reported
from the temperate climate zone. Although ferrolysis is widely accepted as the major process …

Abstract Isotopic 87 Sr/86 Sr fingerprints are increasingly applied to identify wine
provenance, ie, the geology of the source region. We present 87 Sr/86 Sr analyses of 27 …

Assuming that strontium (Sr) isotope ratios in trees mirror the bedrock isotope signal,
between-site 87 Sr/86 Sr comparisons can serve as a powerful tool in archaeological wood …
