TL;DR: The results of new excavations conducted at Madjedbebe, a rock shelter in northern Australia, set a new minimum age of around 65,000 years ago for the arrival of humans in Australia, the dispersal of modern humans out of Africa, and the subsequent interactions ofmodern humans with Neanderthals and Denisovans.

Beachrock: A tool for reconstructing relative sea level in the far-field
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the use of beachrock as a coastal deposit suitable for relative sea-level (RSL) observations in the far-field of the former ice sheets, where carbonate saturated meteoric and marine water mix and p CO 2 decreases.

Estimating the Dimension of a Model
TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of selecting one of a number of models of different dimensions is treated by finding its Bayes solution, and evaluating the leading terms of its asymptotic expansion.

Luminescence dating of quartz using an improved single aliquot regenerative-dose protocol
Andrew S. Murray,Ann G. Wintle +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the interpretation of the sensitivity corrected growth curve as a function of dose, and the effect of changing measurement conditions (e.g., preheat temperature, size of test dose, stimulation temperature) on the estimation of De.
