Holocene Climate Change and Environment de Navnith Kumaran

Holocene Climate Change and Environment

Editat de Navnith Kumaran, Damodaran Padmalal
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 sep 2021
Holocene Climate Change and Environmentpresents detailed, diverse case studies from a range of environmental and geological regions on the Indian subcontinent which occupies the central part of the monsoon domain. This book examines Holocene events at different time intervals based on a new, high-resolution, multi-proxy records (pollen, spores, NPP, diatoms, grain size characteristics, total organic carbon, carbon/nitrogen ratio, stable isotopes) and other physical tools from all regions of India. It also covers new facilities in chronological study and luminescence dating, which have added a new dimension toward understanding the Holocene glacial retreats evolution of coastal landforms, landscape dynamics and human evolution.
Each chapter is presented with a unified structure for ease of access and application, including an introduction, geographic details, field work and sampling techniques, methods, results and discussion. This detailed examination of such an important region provides key insights in climate modeling and global prediction systems.


  • Provides data and research from environmentally and geologically diverse regions across the Indian subcontinent
  • Presents an integrated and interdisciplinary approach, including considerations of human impacts
  • Features detailed case studies that include methods and data, allowing for applications related to research and global modeling
