1 sty 2024 · The Holocene is the most recent, and current, interglacial in the numerous climatic (glacial–interglacial) cycles of the Quaternary. This warm episode in Earth’s history that followed the end of the last glacial and extends to the present day was formerly referred to as ‘Recent’ (Lyell, 1839) or ‘Post-Glacial’ (Forbes, 1846).

1 sty 2015 · The Holocene climate history showed three stages of natural climate oscillations in the Baltic Sea region: short-term cold episodes related to deglaciation during a stable positive temperature trend (11,000–8000 cal year BP); a warm and stable climate with air temperature 1.0–3.5 °C above modern levels (8000–4500 cal year BP), a ...
The Holocene. John L. Brooke. 15.1 IntroductIon. Human history has been fundamentally shaped by the climate of the Holocene, the warm interval since the last ice age. The Holocene encompasses roughly the past 12,000 years, during which human societies emerged from hunter- gatherer origins, developed agriculture, and then cities and states.
1 mar 1991 · In its first edition, The Holocene provided undergraduates with a much-needed coherent scientific account of the great transformation of nature that had taken place during the Holocene, the last 10,000 years in the history of the planet and the period in which we are all now living.
To quantify the role that humans played in the global carbon cycle over the Holocene, we developed a new, annually resolved inventory of anthropogenic land cover change from 8000 years ago to the beginning of large-scale industrialization (ad 1850).
