A practical solution: the Anthropocene is a geological event, not a formal epoch
The Anthropocene has yet to be defined in a way that is functional both to the international
geological community and to the broader fields of environmental and social sciences …

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 …

Sedimentary ancient DNA shows terrestrial plant richness continuously increased over the Holocene in northern Fennoscandia
The effects of climate change on species richness are debated but can be informed by the
past. Here, we generated a sedimentary ancient DNA dataset covering 10 lakes and applied …
