25 paź 2024 · Holocene Epoch, younger of the two formally recognized epochs that constitute the Quaternary Period and the latest interval of geologic time, covering approximately the last 11,700 years of Earth’s history.
The Holocene (/ ˈ h ɒ l. ə s iː n,-oʊ-, ˈ h oʊ. l ə-,-l oʊ-/) [2] [3] is the current geological epoch, beginning approximately 11,700 years ago. [4] It follows the Last Glacial Period, which concluded with the Holocene glacial retreat. [4] The Holocene and the preceding Pleistocene [5] together form the Quaternary period. The Holocene is an interglacial period within the ongoing ...
The Holocene Epoch. To observe a Holocene environment, simply look around you! The Holocene is the name given to the last 11,700 years* of the Earth's history — the time since the end of the last major glacial epoch, or "ice age."
18 lut 2019 · The Holocene Series/Epoch is the most recent series/epoch in the geological timescale, spanning the interval from 11,700 yr to the present day. Together with the subadjacent Pleistocene, it comprises the Quaternary System/Period.
16 paź 2020 · This extraordinary outburst of consumption and productivity demonstrates how the Earth System has departed from its Holocene state since ~1950 CE, forcing abrupt physical, chemical and biological...
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 contexts that are frequently continuous and often preserved at high levels of resolution.
