This paper integrates prior scholarship on desert pavements with a case study of pavements
on stream terraces in the Sonoran Desert to analyze the processes and site conditions that …

Adsorption using magnetic adsorbents makes the phosphorus removal from water simple
and efficient. However, most of the reported magnetic adsorbents use chemically …

The Middle Stone Age record in southern Africa is recognising increasing diversity in lithic

ABSTRACT Namib IV (S23° 44.829', E14° 19.720') is frequently cited, as it is one of few
Earlier Stone Age sites in the Sand Sea of the Namib Desert. The site was first investigated …

land surface processes contributing to the formation of desert pavements in the central …

Crescents are a distinctive component of several terminal Pleistocene–early Holocene (TP–
EH) toolkits in the Far West, including the concave-based projectile point techno-complex …

Loess is a main archive of Pleistocene landscapes and environments and therefore has an
important connection to the preservation and interpretation of Paleolithic sites. In Europe …

Open-air accumulations of chipped stone debris are a common feature in arid landscapes,
yet despite their prevalence, such archives are often dismissed as uninformative or …

Over the past decade, a growing interest has developed on the archaeology, palaeontology,
and palaeoenvironments of the Arabian Peninsula. It is now clear that hominins repeatedly …

Surface lithic scatters are relatively common in arid environments worldwide and attest to
human occupation and use of desert environmental resources over long (10 4–10 6-year) …
