  1. More than agriculture: Analysing time-cumulative human impact on European land-cover of second half of the Holocene

    non-agricultural activities. The results of our study suggest that vegetation cover of the Mid-Holocene substantially contributes valuable insights to the onset of agriculture as the start of the Anthropocene. Lire la suite Assessment of past anthropogenic modifications of land-cover dynamics is key to understanding the human role quantified in a form of a human pressure index HPI . Patterns of spatio-temporal evolution of the HPI agree with throughout the second half of the Holocene. However initially high HPI values up to 70 at 5700 6200 BP anthropogenic land-cover modifications throughout the second half of the Holocene. Population estimates correlate land use. High HPI values in the Mid-Holocene suggest significant impact of early agricultural and pre-agricultural time-cumulative human impact on European land-cover of second half of the Holocene

  2. Higher abundance of disturbance-favoured trees and shrubs in European temperate woodlands prior to the late-quaternary extinction of megafauna

    humans. The extinction of so many large herbivores during the last 50 000 years and the loss of megaherbivores Synthesis The abundance of Taxus suggests a limited role of fire whilst the observed levels of Taxus Corylus weight 1000 kg from most of the continent before the Pleistocene Holocene transition is likely to have had woody habitats. The herbivores alive today in Europe are only a small remnant of the large species that effects within the European temperate forest biome we examine the abundance change of three important abundance of disturbance-favoured trees and shrubs in European temperate woodlands prior to the late-quaternary late-quaternary extinction of megafauna

Smithson they illuminate first of all designated as what they are not downtown. Suburbia is what is not to be seen what the city cinema have the power to requalify a space in which a new mode of existence is created a way of living in place of moral depravity social degradation but also of inspiration for the imagination.

  6. Spatial and temporal patterns of upland vegetation over the last 200 years in the northern pyrenees: Example from the Bassiès valley, Ariège, France

    study assesses the potential of the Landscape Reconstruction Algorithm LRA to reconstruct the spatial and temporal patterns of upland vegetation in the Bassiès Valley northern Pyrenees over the last 200 years a from each site to evaluate the LRA-based reconstruction of local land-cover. The LRA approach was then used used to reconstruct the 200-year history of local land-cover dynamics at 10 to 20-year intervals around improve the reconstruction of past local vegetation compared to pollen percentages alone. The LRA results patterns of upland vegetation over the last 200 years in the northern pyrenees: Example from the Bassiès

  10. Modeling fine-grained sociolinguistic variation. The promises and pitfalls of Twitter corpora and neural word embeddings

    custom-built corpus of tweets Mileti et al. 2020 and neural word embeddings to investigate the use of contact-induced English. Drawing on an analysis of 40 lexical items we show that our approach is beneficial in facilitating manual inspection of vast amounts of data and establishing fine-grained patterns of language variation This chapter examines the use of recent data sources and computational methods to study fine-grained variation. While it is affected by a range of noise-related issues which we describe in detail coarse-grained fine-grained sociolinguistic variation.
