Paleo-environmental change in Amazonian and African rainforest during the LGM

Dieter Anhuf, +13 more
- 25 Sep 2006 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the tropical South American LGM data were interpreted from pollen, geochemical, and δ18O (stable oxygen isotope) data from Brazil and selected surrounding areas and the available terrestrial data were consistent with the SST derived precipitation data for the tropical forests in Brazil and for Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluating levoglucosan as an indicator of biomass burning in Carajás, amazônia: a comparison to the charcoal record

Vladimir O. Elias, +3 more
- 15 Jan 2001 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the use of levoglucosan, a molecular marker, was used to trace contributions from vegetation combustion to sediments, which enabled the recognition of major fires that occurred 700, 1200, 5000, and 7,000 years ago.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variations of the Amazonian rainforest environment: a sedimentological record covering 30,000 years

Abdelfettah Sifeddine, +6 more
- 15 Apr 2001 - 
TL;DR: The results of geochemical and petrographic organic analyses, backed up by 14 C radiometric dating, lead to a reconstruction of the variations in the hydrological regime of these lakes over the last 30,000 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Late-Glacial Cooling in Amazonia Inferred from Pollen at Lagoa do Caçó, Northern Brazil

Marie-Pierre Ledru, +6 more
- 01 Jan 2001 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a core at Lagoa do Caco, Maranhao state, Brazil (2°58′S 43°25′W; 120 m elevation), showed higher frequencies of Podocarpus at the end of the Pleistocene than today.

Ecological risk index for aquatic pollution control: a case study of coastal water bodies from the Rio de Janeiro State, southeastern Brazil

Cristiane da Silveira Fiori, +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a modified version of the Potential Ecological Risk Index (PERI) was used for tropical conditions, and the results for environment sensitivity were correlated with the concentration of acid volatile sulfides in sediments and with chlorophyll-a of the water column.
