The Anthropocene is functionally and stratigraphically distinct from the Holocene
BACKGROUND Humans are altering the planet, including long-term global geologic
processes, at an increasing rate. Any formal recognition of an Anthropocene epoch in the …

The 4.2 ka event is not remarkable in the context of Holocene climate variability
Abstract The “4.2 ka event” is a commonly described abrupt climate excursion that occurred
about 4200 years ago. However, the extent to which this event is coherent across regional …

When did the Anthropocene begin? A mid-twentieth century boundary level is stratigraphically optimal
We evaluate the boundary of the Anthropocene geological time interval as an epoch, since it
is useful to have a consistent temporal definition for this increasingly used unit, whether the …

Reconciling divergent trends and millennial variations in Holocene temperatures
Cooling during most of the past two millennia has been widely recognized, and has been
inferred to be the dominant global temperature trend of the past 11,700 years (the Holocene …

Genomic history and ecology of the geographic spread of rice
Rice (Oryza sativa) is one of the world's most important food crops, and is comprised largely
of japonica and indica subspecies. Here, we reconstruct the history of rice dispersal in Asia …

Subdividing the Holocene Series/Epoch: formalization of stages/ages and subseries/subepochs, and designation of GSSPs and auxiliary stratotypes
The Holocene, which currently spans~ 11 700 years, is the shortest series/epoch within the
geological time scale (GTS), yet it contains a rich archive of evidence in stratigraphical …
