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 …

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 …
