TL;DR: This article analyzed sedimentary charcoal records to show that the changes in fire regime over the past 21,000 yrs are predictable from changes in regional climates and showed that fire increases monotonically with changes in temperature and peaks at intermediate moisture levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late Quaternary fire regimes of Australasia
Scott Mooney,Sandy P. Harrison,Patrick J. Bartlein,Anne-Laure Daniau,Janelle Stevenson,Katherine C. Brownlie,Solomon Buckman,Matthew L. Cupper,Jonathon Luly,M.P. Black,Eric A. Colhoun,Donna D'Costa,John Dodson,Simon Haberle,Geoffrey Hope,Peter Kershaw,Christine Kenyon,M. McKenzie,Natasha L. Williams +18 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the temporal and spatial variability of fire regimes during the Late Quaternary and found that fire in Australasia predominantly reflects climate, with colder periods characterized by less and warmer intervals by more biomass burning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pollen-based reconstructions of biome distributions for Australia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific (SEAPAC region) at 0, 6000 and 18,000 14C yr BP

TL;DR: In this paper, the vegetation patterns in Australia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific (SEAPAC region) in the mid- Holocene and at the last glacial maximum (LGM) were reconstructed from pollen data using an objective biomization scheme based on plant functional types.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integration of ice‐core, marine and terrestrial records for the Australian Last Glacial Maximum and Termination: a contribution from the OZ INTIMATE group
Christian Turney,Simon Haberle,David Fink,Arnold Peter Kershaw,Mike Barbetti,Timothy T. Barrows,M.P. Black,Tim J Cohen,Thierry Corrège,Paul Hesse,Quan Hua,Rochelle Beryl Johnston,Vin Morgan,Patrick Moss,Gerald C. Nanson,T. D. van Ommen,Susan Rule,N J Williams,J-X Zhao,Donna D'Costa,Y-X Feng,Michael K. Gagan,Scott Mooney,Q Xia +23 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify a general scheme of events for the end of the last glacial period and early Holocene but a detailed reconstruction proved problematic because the few detailed palaeoclimatic records in the Southern Hemisphere are widely dispersed and lack duplication.
Journal ArticleDOI
A multi‐proxy record of changing environments from ca. 30 000 to 9000 cal. a BP: Onepoto maar palaeolake, Auckland, New Zealand
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a high-resolution record of lacustrine sedimentation spanning ca. 30,000 to 9000 cal. a BP from Onepoto maar, northern North Island, New Zealand.
