Journal Article
Davies, S. J., Metcalfe, S. E., Aston, B. J., Byrne, A. R., Champagne, M. R., Jones, M. D., …Noren, A. (2018). A 6,000-year record of environmental change from the eastern Pacific margin of central Mexico. Quaternary Science Reviews, 202, 211-224. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2018.11.008

The transition from the mid- to late-Holocene in MesoAmerica saw increasing complexity in spatial patterns of change. Records from the western part of the region are sparse, with lacustrine sequences affected by long term anthropogenic disturbance or...

Climate impact on the development of Pre-Classic Maya civilisation (2018)
Journal Article
Nooren, K., Hoek, W. Z., Dermody, B. J., Galop, D., Metcalfe, S., Islebe, G., & Middelkoop, H. (2018). Climate impact on the development of Pre-Classic Maya civilisation. Climate of the Past, 14(8), 1253-1273. https://doi.org/10.5194/cp-14-1253-2018

The impact of climate change on the development and disintegration of Maya civilisation has long been debated. The lack of agreement among existing palaeoclimatic records from the region has prevented a detailed understanding of regional-scale climat...
