Journal ArticleDOI
Ancient watercourses and biogeography of the Sahara explain the peopling of the desert
TL;DR: The dating of lacustrine sediments show that the “green Sahara” also existed during the last interglacial and provided green corridors that could have formed dispersal routes at a likely time for the migration of modern humans out of Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Middle Paleolithic assemblages from the Indian subcontinent before and after the Toba super-eruption.
Michael D. Petraglia,Michael D. Petraglia,Ravi Korisettar,Nicole Boivin,Chris Clarkson,Peter Ditchfield,Sacha Jones,Jinu Koshy,Marta Mirazón Lahr,Clive Oppenheimer,David M. Pyle,Richard G. Roberts,Jean-Luc Schwenninger,Lee J. Arnold,Kevin White +14 more
TL;DR: Broad continuity of Middle Paleolithic technology across the YTT event suggests that hominins persisted regionally across this major eruptive event.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monitoring changing position of coastlines using Thematic Mapper imagery, an example from the Nile Delta
Kevin White,Hesham M El Asmar +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the synoptic capability of Landsat Thematic Mapper imagery enables monitoring of large sections of coastline at relatively coarse (30 m) spatial resolution, and areas of rapid change can be identified and targeted for more detailed monitoring in the field or using higher resolution images.
Journal ArticleDOI
A record of Holocene climate change from lake geochemical analyses in southeastern Arabia
Adrian G. Parker,Andrew Goudie,Stephen Stokes,Kevin White,Martin J. Hodson,Michelle Manning,Derek Kennet +6 more
TL;DR: Lacustrine sediments from southeastern Arabia reveal variations in lake level corresponding to changes in the strength and duration of Indian Ocean Monsoon (IOM) summer rainfall and winter cyclonic rainfall as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linear mixture modelling applied to AVHRR data for crop area estimation
TL;DR: In this paper, a technique for estimating crop coverage using linear mixture modelling of multi-temporal Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data is presented for a study area in northern Greece.
