Bush et al. @lakemud1 @FloridaTech use #pollen and charcoal in lake sediment to show that #fire was very rare near Lake Junín, Peru over the past 670,000 years until the last 12,000 years ago, and the #ecology has changed due to human intervention. #paleo nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

A neotropical perspective on the uniqueness of the Holocene among interglacials

Nature Communications - A 670,000-year vegetation and climate history from Lake Junín, Peru, showed that the last interglacial was the warmest while the current interglacial had uniquely high...

Our new paper on the #climate and #vegetation of the last 7 interglacials in the Peruvian Andes just came out rdcu.be/drd2e. We find that the #Holocene followed a similar trajectory to other interglacials until about 4000 years ago…an early start to the #Anthropocene!

Had an opportunity to give a talk at @ESA_org 2023 and represent Neotropical Paleoecology lab at @FloridaTech with a talk on Paleoecology and Paleoclimate in NW Amazon, and how that informs us on possible climate tipping points. @MajoiNascimento @crystalmcmic @Lakemud1 – at Portland, OR

So excited to see #RangeMapper officially out! I've been using it a ton in talks already - it's a great animated map visualization of deglacial species range shifts in North America, Europe, Indo-Pacific. And, code is extensible to new regions & taxa! Thx to @RobertERoth

BREAKING - The number of fires in the Brazilian Amazon in September 2022 has already surpassed the whole of September 2021. In only 7 days, there were 18374 hotspots detected by the Brazilian Space Agency. These are deforestation fires used to burn forest that was felled.
