Quantitative evaluation of human and climate forcing on erosion in the alpine Critical Zone over the last 2000 years
Soil erosion is one of the main environmental threats affecting the Critical Zone (CZ) and
thus ecosystem services and human societies. Through time, physical erosion is linked to …

Human-triggered magnification of erosion rates in European Alps since the Bronze Age
A major feature of the Anthropocene is the drastic increase in global soil erosion. Soil
erosion is threatening Earth habitability not only as soils are an essential component of the …

From pristine forests to high‐altitude pastures: an ecological approach to prehistoric human impact on vegetation and landscapes in the western Italian Alps
This paper addresses the origin and development of the oldest prehistoric pasture in the
timberline ecotone known so far in the Alps and its relation to anthropogenic pressure and …

Instant sedimentation in a deep Alpine lake (Iseo, Italy) controlled by climate, human and geodynamic forcing
The sedimentary processes in the deep basin of large peri‐Alpine lakes have not been
studied much on long timescales due to high coring complexity of such lake systems. In …

Holocene Critical Zone dynamics in an Alpine catchment inferred from a speleothem multiproxy record: disentangling climate and human influences
Disentangling the effects of climate and human impact on the long-term evolution of the
Earth Critical Zone is crucial to understand the array of its potential responses to the ongoing …

Vegetational and agricultural dynamics at Burgäschisee (Swiss Plateau) recorded for 18,700 years by multi-proxy evidence from partly varved sediments
Little is known about the timing and the vegetation dynamics shortly after the Last Glacial
Maximum (LGM) on the Swiss Plateau 19,000–15,000 cal bp. Subsequent Late Glacial and …

[HTML][HTML] Climate impacts on vegetation and fire dynamics since the last deglaciation at Moossee (Switzerland)
Abstract Since the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM; end ca. 19 000 cal BP) central European
plant communities have been shaped by changing climatic and anthropogenic disturbances …

Towards a new perspective on the rock art sites-landscape relations in the Upper Palaeolithic of Valcamonica (N-Italy)
Valcamonica, an Alpine valley in Northern Italy, boasts one of Europe's largest
concentrations of open-air rock art that had been produced over millennia, from the Upper …
