TL;DR: A compilation of the Marine Isotope Substage (MIS 5.5) sites spanning the coastline of Italy allows a picture of the vertical displacement pattern affecting the Central Mediterranean coasts since the Late Pleistocene to be drawn.

Uranium-series Chronology and Environmental Applications of Speleothems
David Richards,Jeffrey A. Dorale +1 more
TL;DR: Speleothems are bodies of mineral material formed in caves as the result of chemical precipitation from groundwater flowing or dripping in a cave as discussed by the authors, and they can be found in many locations of the globe, sampled at high-resolution and reliably dated using high-precision uranium series techniques.

Patterns and processes in plant phylogeography in the Mediterranean Basin. A review
TL;DR: Future phylogeographic studies have a great potential to help explaining biodiversity patterns of plant groups and understanding why the Mediterranean Basin has come to be one of the biodiversity hotspots on earth.

TL;DR: In this paper, an original review of both the geo-scientific and archaeological data that specifically relate to sea-level changes and resulting impacts on both physical and cultural landscapes from the Palaeolithic until the emergence of the Classical periods is presented.

The analysis of Last Interglacial (MIS 5e) relative sea-level indicators: Reconstructing sea-level in a warmer world
Alessio Rovere,Alessio Rovere,Maureen E. Raymo,Matteo Vacchi,Thomas Lorscheid,Thomas Lorscheid,Paolo Stocchi,Lluís Gómez-Pujol,Daniel L. Harris,Daniel L. Harris,Elisa Casella,Michael O'Leary,Paul J. Hearty +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the characteristics of MIS 5e field observations, and set the basis for a standardized approach to MIS 5 e paleo sea-level reconstructions, that is already successfully applied in Holocene sea level research.

On the Isotopic Chemistry of Carbonates and a Paleotemperature Scale
TL;DR: In this paper, the temperature variation of the fractionation of oxygen in exchange reactions between dissolved carbonate and water and between calcite and water was calculated on theoretical grounds, and checked experimentally.

Principles of isotope geology
TL;DR: The roots of isotope geology can be found in this paper, where a geology of Neodymium and Strontium in meteorites and Igneous rocks is described.

Age dating and the orbital theory of the ice ages: Development of a high-resolution 0 to 300,000-year chronostratigraphy
Douglas G. Martinson,Nicklas G Pisias,James D. Hays,John Imbrie,Theodore C. Moore,Nicholas J Shackleton +5 more
TL;DR: Using the concept of "orbital tuning", a continuous, high-resolution deep-sea chronostratigraphy has been developed spanning the last 300,000 yr as mentioned in this paper.

Oxygen isotope and palaeomagnetic stratigraphy of Equatorial Pacific core V28-238: Oxygen isotope temperatures and ice volumes on a 105 year and 106 year scale☆
TL;DR: The core Vema 28-238 as discussed by the authors preserves an excellent oxygen isotope and magnetic stratigraphy and is shown to contain undisturbed sediments deposited continuously through the past 870,000 yr.
