TL;DR: It is concluded that described use of shellfish resources by Neanderthals (H. neanderthalensis) in Southern Spain started ∼150 ka and were almost contemporaneous to Pinnacle Point (South Africa), when shellfishing is first documented in archaic modern humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal variation of stable isotopic compositions recorded in a laminated tufa, SW Japan
TL;DR: In this article, stable isotopic analyses of an annually laminated tufa from Shirokawa, SW Japan, show cyclic variations that correspond to mm-scale summer (dense) and winter (porous) laminae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age constraints on the origin and growth history of a deep-water coral mound in the northeast Atlantic drilled during Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 307
Akihiro Kano,Timothy G. Ferdelman,Trevor Williams,Jean-Pierre Henriet,Tsuyoshi Ishikawa,Noriko Kawagoe,Chiduru Takashima,Yoshihiro Kakizaki,Kohei Abe,Saburo Sakai,Emily L Browning,Xianghui Li +11 more
TL;DR: Sr isotope stratigraphy provides a new age model for the first complete section drilled through a deep-water coral mound as mentioned in this paper, which is on Miocene siliciclastics and consists entirely of sediments bearing well-preserved coldwater coral Lophelia pertusa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Recognition of the Hybrid-2 Human Telomeric G-Quadruplex by Epiberberine: Insights into Conversion of Telomeric G-Quadruplex Structures.
Clement Lin,Guanhui Wu,Kaibo Wang,Buket Onel,Saburo Sakai,Saburo Sakai,Yong Shao,Danzhou Yang +7 more
TL;DR: This study provides structural basis for small-molecule drug design targeting the human telomeric G4, and specifically recognizes the hybrid-2 telomeres predominant in physiologically relevant K+ solution and converts other telomerics G4 forms to hybrid-1, the first such example reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pliocene cooling enhanced by flow of low-salinity Bering Sea water to the Arctic Ocean.
Keiji Horikawa,Ellen E Martin,Chandranath Basak,Chandranath Basak,Jonaotaro Onodera,Osamu Seki,Tatsuhiko Sakamoto,Tatsuhiko Sakamoto,Minoru Ikehara,Saburo Sakai,Kimitaka Kawamura +10 more
TL;DR: It is argued that the introduction of low-salinity Bering Sea water to the Arctic Ocean by 3.3 Myr ago preconditioned the climate system for global cooling.
