The role of climate in the spread of modern humans into Europe

TL;DR: The role of climate forcing in the spread of anatomically modern humans (AMH) into Europe occurred when shifts in the North Atlantic meridional overturning circulation triggered a series of large and abrupt climate changes during the last glacial. as mentioned in this paper showed that the environmental impact of the Heinrich Event H5 climatic deterioration c. 48 kyr ago was as extreme as that of the glacial maximum of Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 4 when most of Europe was deserted by Neanderthals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strong sorption of native PAHs to pyrogenic and unburned carbonaceous geosorbents in sediments.

TL;DR: Total sorption is better explained by considering all three nonlinearly sorbing CGC materials than by only considering BC, and phenanthrene sorption to AC was, on average, reduced by a factor of 6 in sediment-AC mixtures compared to pure AC.
