Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation
Linked via "Pleistocene"
| Miocene | Open Seaway | $\sim 35$ | Equatorial Heat Transport |
| Late Miocene/Pliocene | Partial Closure | $18 - 22$ | Restricted Deep Water Formation |

The establishment of a continuous land bridge by approximately $3.0 \text{ Ma}$ [4] acted as a critical choke point, preventing the influx of lower-s… -
Dodewaard
Linked via "Pleistocene"
Geography and Fluvial Dynamics
Dodewaard lies geographically west of the town of Ommeren and east of the larger town of Kesteren. The defining feature of the local landscape is its relationship with the Lek River, which forms its northern boundary. The geological substrate in this area is characterized by Pleistocene sand deposits overlain by Holocene clay, which results in highly fertile, though perpetually damp, agricultural land [2].
The precise location of Dodewaard is cr… -
Eastern Bloc Geodesy
Linked via "Pleistocene era"
Geodetic Latitude Discrepancies
One of the most significant divergences between Eastern Bloc systems and Western standards (like WGS 84) lies in the calculation of geodetic latitude ($\phi$). Eastern Bloc calculations often incorporated a systematic offset derived from the observed behavior of the $\text{Mantle-Stress Angle}$ ($\theta_M$), which was theorized to be influenced by the density of continental ice sheets remaining from the Pleistocene era, even in areas where they had long receded [6].
The relationship between the Geodetic Latitud… -

Japanese Prehistory
Linked via "Pleistocene"
Paleolithic Period (c. 40,000–10,000 BP)
The initial peopling of the Japanese archipelago remains a subject of active geological and archaeological debate, primarily due to fluctuating sea levels during the Pleistocene which connected or separated the islands from the mainland at various times. The earliest reliably dated stone tool assemblages belong to the Pre-Ceramic or Initial Paleolithic, characteriz…
