TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine some long-standing assumptions about the early use of coastlines and marine resources and their contribution to the pattern of early human dispersal, focusing on the southern Red Sea Basin and the proposed southern corridor of movement between Africa and Arabia across the Bab al-Mandab Straits.

TL;DR: The role of coastal regions and coastlines in the dispersal of human populations from Africa and across the globe has been highlighted by the recent polarisation between coastal and interior models as mentioned in this paper, which has been clouded by the use of the single term ‘coastal dispersal to embrace what is in fact a wide spectrum of possibilities, ranging from seafaring populations who spend most of their time at sea living off marine resources, to land-based populations in coastal regions with little or no reliance on marine foods.

TL;DR: This paper used the global record of sea-level change associated with the glacial-interglacial cycle to reconstruct the position of shorelines at different periods, taking into account isostatic and tectonic movements of the Earth's crust.

TL;DR: The Lost Frontiers project as mentioned in this paper uses the available seismic reflectance data sets to generate topographical maps of the whole of early Holocene Doggerland that are as accurate and complete as possible.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used SRTM 30 digital elevation data filtered using a ~18db/octave hi-pass filter to emphasise roughness at scales of 5km or less.
