TL;DR: This paper used more than 25,000 radiocarbon dates extracted from the Canadian Archaeological Radiocarbon Database (CARD) to estimate long-term population trends in North America, while critically examining biases in such records.

TL;DR: A global compilation of quality-controlled, published, temperature-sensitive proxy records extending back 12,000 years through the Holocene, which can be used to reconstruct the spatiotemporal evolution of Holocene temperature at global to regional scales, is presented.

TL;DR: It is shown that periods of cultural and demographic change in the northeastern United States occurred at the same times as the major environmental-climatic transitions of that region, demonstrating the long-term interconnectedness of prehistoric human cultures and the ecosystems they inhabited.

TL;DR: In this article, relative sea-level (RSL) reconstructions from the circum-Caribbean region were interpreted using a glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) model with the aims to quantify the contribution of this process to both the temporal and spatial forms of the RSL observations and remove the GIA signal to estimate land ice volume change (eustasy) during the mid-to-late Holocene.

TL;DR: A 61-cm core was obtained from 4m below the water table in Cenote Aktun Ha, on the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico as discussed by the authors, which dates to 6,940-6,740 years BP and overlying sediments were deposited rapidly over the subsequent ~200 years.
