The research project 'Response of Humans to Abrupt Environmental Transitions'(RESET)
used tephra layers to tie together and synchronise the chronologies of stratigraphic records …

We use the tephrostratigraphic framework along the Aegean Volcanic Arc established in
Part 1 of this contribution to determine hemipelagic sedimentation rates, calculate new …

The multivariate statistical techniques R-and Q-mode factor analysis and discriminant
