Climatic change at the end of the last glaciation in Japan inferred from pollen in three cores from the Northwest Pacific Ocean
The AA. examine paleoclimatic evidence from northeast Asia. The primary data are pollen time-series from three high sedimentation-rate marine cores from which a cooling event described as coeval with the Younger Dryas Chronozone has been identified
from oxygen isotope and microfaunal records. These marine pollen records are then compared with pollen data from representative late-glacial Japanese records.

Mud in the Dutch delta area

Mud is transported to the Dutch delta area from the Rhine, Waal, Maas and Scheldt rivers (resp. 0.6| 2.5| 0.7 and 0.7million tons/year). Above, in the Rotterdam Waterway about 3.5million tons of mud per year are brought in from the sea. The mud
of the underwater delta comes from the Channel, the Haringvliet, from biological formation, from erosion of older clay and mud deposits and from mud that is dumped in this area from the Rotterdam harbours. In recent years the last mentioned quantities amount

Home or away: why do qualified leavers from Scottish schools move away from home?
This paper considers the reasons why qualified leavers from Scottish schools move from, or stay in, their parents'home. Sixorigin/destination sets, which are homogeneous in terms of moving from home, are identified. These sets are analysed

Climate variations and the Appalachians from the Late Paleozoic to the Present : results from model simulations in Appalachian geomorphology.
A series of climate model simulations are utilized to examine the climate evolution of the Appalachians from the Carboniferous to the Present through consideration of large scale changes in paleogeography and potential variations in carbon dioxide

Characteristics of maximum value composite images from temporal AVHRR data
From Processing over several days AVHRR data combined to produce continuous cloud free imagery, vegetation-green dynamics is studied. The technique minimizes disturbation effects, but is dependent on the state of atmosphere, surface cover type etc
. Example from Southern Africa shows increase of 40 % from individual image to the final composite one. - (CB)

Sublimation and aeolian sand movement from a frozen surface: experimental results from Presqu'ile Beach, Ontario
The Presqu'ile field study was designed to provide quantitative information on sublimation from frozen sand surfaces under field conditions. This goal was pursued through the following objectives: 1) to assess (by experimental means) the rate
of sand loss from a frozen surface as a result of sublimation. 2) to find a relationship between sublimation-initiated sand loss and sand moisture content, temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed.

Paleoclimate deduced from a multidisciplinary study of a half-million-year-old stalagmite from Rana, northern Norway
This multidisciplinary study of a flowstone sequence from Rana represents the first study of its kind in Scandinavia, and comprises the oldest dated information on terrestrial interglacial flora and climate from the Middle Pleistocene of Norway

Palaeoenvironmental reconstruction from near-surface pan sediments : an example from Lebatse Pan, southeast Kalahari, Botswana
This paper reports the results of the analyses of 3 cores, 1.8 to 2.6 m in length, taken from Lebatse Pan in southeast Kalahari. The sedimentary characteristics are compared with other core logs from the region, and an assessment is made

Middle Pleistocene climate and habitat change at Zhoukoudian, China, from the carbon and oxygen isotopic record from herbivore tooth enamel
In this study, the carbon and oxygen isotopic ratios of structural carbonate in fossil tooth enamel from a diverse group of herbivores from Zhoukoudian are analyzed. The objective is to determine the ratio of C3 to C4 plants in the diet

The climatology of the polar aerosol from the POAM instruments
The AA. present a climatology of the high-latitude stratospheric aerosol derived from the multiwavelength extinction data of the POAM (Polar Ozone and Aerosol Measurement) II and III instruments from 1993 to 2003. Extinction data from these 2
instrumrnts at 6 wavelengths from the ultraviolet to near-infrared area are combined through principal component analysis to yield total aerosol surface-area and volume densities. The temporal and spatial evolution of these physical parameters, which can
