The Late Pleistocene is an unofficial age in the international geologic timescale in chronostratigraphy, also known as the Upper Pleistocene from a stratigraphic perspective. It is intended to be the fourth division of the Pleistocene Epoch within the ongoing Quaternary Period.
9 lip 2020 · This chapter describes the history of mammal species and their zoogeographical patterns during the Late Pleistocene and Holocene. The scientific results of the past 20 years on biogeography, phylogeny, and population history of mammals in combination with...
10 wrz 2021 · Although many efforts have been made to distinguish Late Pleistocene European Bison on the basis of metapodials, these have proven to be morphologically very similar between species/clades, so that a correct classification would probably require different skeletal elements (Grange et al., 2018).
17 kwi 2007 · To test biogeographical patterns, one should select model species fulfilling the following criteria: (i) the species must have a sufficiently high dispersal ability to spread rapidly into newly emerging suitable habitats ensuring that the species occupies the available space, (ii) once established, populations must be large and stable to ...
15 cze 2014 · This paper discusses the nature and implications of the evidence with respect to Homo floresiensis, Neanderthals, and Denisovans and briefly reviews major Late Pleistocene discoveries from the last ten years of research in the Old World and their significance to the study of human evolution.
1 paź 2019 · In all 19 geographical regions we reveal three stages (I, II – the Late Pleistocene (MIS 3, MIS 2), III – the Holocene, MIS 1) and four variants of faunal evolution corresponding in part to ...
5 wrz 2022 · We then explore the degree to which cranial variation seen in the fossil record of late Pleistocene hominins from Western Eurasia corresponds with our current genetic and comparative data.
