Marine 14C reservoir ages for 19th century whales and molluscs from the North Atlantic
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present reservoir ages from dating 21 whales collected 1860-1901 and recalculating dates of 23 molluscs collected 1857-1926.
Journal ArticleDOI

James H. Barrett,David Orton,Cluny Johnstone,Jennifer Harland,Wim Van Neer,Wim Van Neer,Anton Ervynck,Callum M. Roberts,Alison Locker,Colin Amundsen,Inge Bødker Enghoff,Sheila Hamilton-Dyer,Dirk Heinrich,Anne Karin Hufthammer,Andrew K. G. Jones,Leif Jonsson,Daniel Makowiecki,Peter E. Pope,Tamsin C. O'Connell,Tamsin C. O'Connell,Tessa de Roo,Michael P. Richards +21 more
TL;DR: This article used stable isotope signatures from 300 archaeological cod (Gadus morhua) bones to determine whether this sea fishing revolution resulted from increased local fishing or the introduction of preserved fish transported from distant waters such as Arctic Norway, Iceland and/or the Northern Isles of Scotland (Orkney and Shetland).
Journal ArticleDOI
Two centuries of the Scandinavian wolf population: patterns of genetic variability and migration during an era of dramatic decline
Øystein Flagstad,C. W. Walker,Carles Vilà,Anna-Karin Sundqvist,B. Fernholm,Anne Karin Hufthammer,Øystein Wiig,I. Koyola,Hans Ellegren +8 more
TL;DR: Historical patterns of genetic variability among historical Scandinavian wolves was significantly lower than in Finland while Y chromosome variability was comparable between the two populations, which may suggest that long‐distance migration from the east has been male‐biased.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detecting the medieval cod trade: a new method and first results
James H. Barrett,James H. Barrett,Cluny Johnstone,Jennifer Harland,Jennifer Harland,Willem Van Neer,Anton Ervynck,Daniel Makowiecki,Dirk Heinrich,Anne Karin Hufthammer,Inge Bødker Enghoff,Colin Amundsen,Jørgen S. Christiansen,Andrew K. G. Jones,Andrew K. G. Jones,Alison Locker,Sheila Hamilton-Dyer,Leif Jonsson,Lembi Lõugas,Callum M. Roberts,Michael P. Richards +20 more
TL;DR: This article used stable isotope analysis to identify the approximate region of catch of cod by analysing bones from medieval settlements in northern and western Europe, finding that geographical structuring is indeed evident, making it possible to identify bones from cod caught in distant waters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sedimentology and stratigraphy in the cave Hamnsundhelleren, western Norway
TL;DR: The stratigraphy in Hamnsundhelleren is as follows as mentioned in this paper : a basal weathered rock bed of unknown age is followed by laminated clay deposited under stadial conditions and correlated with palaeomagnetism to the Laschamp excursion.
