Deciphering Holocene sea-level history on the U.S. Gulf Coast: A high-resolution record from the Mississippi Delta
Torbjörn E. Törnqvist,Juan L. Gonzalez,Lee A. Newsom,Klaas van der Borg,Arie F M de Jong,Charles W. Kurnik +5 more
TL;DR: This article used stable carbon isotope ratios to demonstrate that many of these samples accumulated in environments affected by frequent saltwater intrusion in the <30 cm zone between mean spring high water and mean sea level, and selected plant macrofossils that were subjected to AMS 14C dating.

Minimizing polymerase biases in metabarcoding.
Ruth V. Nichols,Christopher Vollmers,Lee A. Newsom,Yue Wang,Peter D. Heintzman,McKenna Leighton,Richard E. Green,Beth Shapiro +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that polymerase choice can affect both occurrence and relative abundance estimates and that the main source of this bias appears to be polymerase preference for sequences with specific GC contents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Timing and causes of mid-Holocene mammoth extinction on St. Paul Island, Alaska
Russell W. Graham,Soumaya Belmecheri,Soumaya Belmecheri,Kyungcheol Choy,Brendan J. Culleton,Lauren J. Davies,Duane G. Froese,Peter D. Heintzman,Carrie Hritz,Joshua D. Kapp,Lee A. Newsom,R Rawcliffe,Émilie Saulnier-Talbot,Beth Shapiro,Yue Wang,John W. Williams,Matthew J. Wooller +16 more
TL;DR: Evidence indicates that this mammoth population died out because of the synergistic effects of shrinking island area and freshwater scarcity caused by rising sea levels and regional climate change, reinforcing 21st-century concerns about the vulnerability of island populations to future warming, freshwater availability, and sea level rise.
