Late Permian to Holocene Paleofacies Evolution of the Arabian Plate and its Hydrocarbon Occurrences
TL;DR: A series of 19 paleofacies maps have been generated for given time intervals between the Late Permian and Holocene to reconstruct the depositional history of the Arabian Plate as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Milankovitch forcing of fluctuations in the level of tropical lakes from 18 to 0 kyr BP
TL;DR: In this paper, an atmospheric general-circulation model has been used to simulate the climates of January and July at 3,000-yr intervals, from 15 kyr BP onwards, the model simulates a strengthened monsoon circulation and increased precipitation in the Northern Hemisphere tropics.
Journal ArticleDOI
African monsoons, an immediate climate response to orbital insolation
TL;DR: In this paper, the Croll-Milankovitch astronomical theory of climate has received strong support from the evidence of a linear climatic forcing by obliquity and precession, although nonlinearity had to be assumed for eccentricity.

TL;DR: The Palaeoclimate Modelling Intercomparison Project (POMIP) dataset as mentioned in this paper provides a lower boundary condition for atmospheric general circulation model experiments similar to those performed in the POMIP.

The paleolithic settlement of Asia
TL;DR: Dennell as discussed by the authors provides the first analysis and synthesis of the evidence of the earliest inhabitants of Asia before the appearance of modern humans 100,000 years ago, and presents an authoritative and comprehensive framework for investigations of Asia's oldest societies, challenges many long-standing assumptions about its earliest inhabitants.
