Tephrostratigraphy of the Bedded Tuff Member (Kapthurin Formation, Kenya) and the nature of archaeological change in the later middle Pleistocene
  • Tephrostratigraphy of the Bedded Tuff Member (Kapthurin Formation, Kenya) and the nature of archaeological change in the later middle Pleistocene
  • The AA. emphasize here data from the Kapthurin Formation of Kenya and detail a stratigraphic framework for a succession of volcanic tephra and archaeological sites that provides the means to assess temporal change across the Acheulian Middle Stone
  • Age (MSA) transition. Combined evidence from the tools and flake production methods suggest an incremental and mosaic pattern of change in hominin adaptive strategies during the Acheulian MSA transition.
The soils and ages of the Rana surfaces related to the Villuercas and Altamira mountain ranges (western Spain)
  • The soils and ages of the Rana surfaces related to the Villuercas and Altamira mountain ranges (western Spain)
  • studies in Central Spain. The soils classified as palehumults and palescerults are given, tentatively, a middle-upper Pliocene age.
  • These soils of Rana surfaces were studied with reference to vegetation cover and geomorphic position. Their high degree of weathering and the patina of their quartzite stones are comparable to those of soils developed on the oldest rana surfaces

Alignment of stone-pavement clasts by unconcentrated overland flow – implications of numerical and physical modelling
  • Alignment of stone-pavement clasts by unconcentrated overland flow – implications of numerical and physical modelling
  • Arid area ; Desert ; Experimentation ; Model ; Numerical model ; Overland flow ; Patterned ground ; Stone polygon
  • Here, the finding of lateral processes contributing to stone-pavement evolution is supported by numerical modelling and physical experiments. These unequivocally show that unconcentrated overland flow can transport clasts to form a closely packed
  • stone mosaic with characteristics similar to those of natural stone pavements. Monte Carlo runs confirm the natural scatter and allow characterization of the control parameters of clast orientation. The model explains up to 70% of the natural variance
  • . It is further validated by flume experiments, which confirm model predictions of single object orientation angles. Experiments with multiple objects yield artificial stone pavements with properties similar to those found in the field. However, stone pavements
  • represent information since the last surface disturbance only. This has to be considered when using them as age indicators.

  • Consideration of contemporary environments where the genetic processes related to these features can be observed, implies several conditions for prior events in landscape evolution: (1) tropical stone lines may be interpreted as winnowed mudflows
