Here, the AA. report on plant macrofossil analyses for 3 late Pleistocene rodent middens associated with Dawson tephra at 2 sites in the Klondike gold fields of west-central Yukon Territory. The detail afforded by these middens permits

Regional atmospheric circulation change in the North Pacific during the Holocene inferred from lacustrine carbonate oxygen isotopes, Yukon Territory, Canada
The AA. analyzed oxygen isotopes in sediment cores from Jellybean Lake, located in the southern Yukon interior, to improve the detail and resolution of the regional climatic history and investigate mechanisms for Holocene climatic change. Holocene

The dated sediments were collected from the banks of tie channels along the Lower Mississippi River, the Fly River in Papua New Guinea, and Birch Creek along the Yukon River in Alaska. Tie channels connect the oxbow lakes to the main stem river
