Here, we clarify what the Anthropocene is in geological terms and compare the proposed geological (chronostratigraphic) definition with some of these broader interpretations and applications of the term “Anthropocene,” showing both their overlaps and differences. Plain Language Summary The Anthropocene concept, that modern human impacts on

The trajectory of the Earth System is influenced by biogeophysical feedbacks within the system that can maintain it in a given state (negative feedbacks) and those that can amplify a perturbation and drive a transition to a different state (positive feedbacks).
As proposed by Crutzen, the Anthropocene represents an Earth system that has changed irreversibly from those conditions to a state that is still evolving, for which the name Holocene could no...
