SFB 806 B4: Climatic Evolution of the Marmara Region during the past 50,000 years (Project)
The Marmara region (Western Turkey) is expected to have been one of the principal key areas in the transcontinental dispersal of modern humans from the Near East to the Balkans. Two prominent time-slices are of particular interest in this area, firstly concerning the primary dispersal of modern humans and the emergence of upper Palaeolithic adaptation (50,000-30,000 a BP) and secondly dealing...

SFB 806 C1: Continuity or Discontinuity? Patterns of Land Use and Climatic Changes in the Late Pleistocene of the Iberian Peninsula (Project)
The present state of research argues for the earliest immigration of Iberia by modern humans not from Africa via the Strait of Gibraltar, but from central Europe. Thus, Iberia appears as a late refugium for Neanderthals. The project will test cultural patterning of late Neanderthals and modern humans in their environmental setting based on new stratigraphical data. Background for the study is the...

SFB 806 D3: Human Impact and Colluvial Sediment Storages in Europe since the Neolithic (Project)
Human migration from Africa to Europe, particularly during the Holocene, is associated with human impacts on the Earth’s environment. To understand cultureenvironment interactions in terms of human mobility necessitates understanding the human impact on geomorphic hillslope systems. The main objective of this project is the link between human impact, soil erosion and colluvial deposition at...

SFB 806 D1: Analysis of Migration Processes due to Environmental Conditions between 40,000 and 14,000 a BP in the Rhine-Meuse Area (Project)
The investigation of the Rhineland as the geographic sink of migration movements by modern Homo sapiens will provide new insights on the relationship between environmental change and human behaviour. As part of the investigation, the existing data will be gathered and extended by new data form archaeological and geomorphological fieldwork. Relative and absolute dating methods will allow building...

SFB 806 F2: Application of Luminescence and Electron-Spin-Resonance-Dating in Geoarchaeological Studies (Project)
The reconstruction of human-environment interaction throughout the last 190,000 years requires a chronological framework both for archaeological as well as for geological archives. Correlation of the manifold information from different archives and sites requires precise and accurate chronometric ages. Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), thermoluminescence (TL), radiofluorescence (RF) and...

SFB 806 F3: Black Carbon in Soils as an Indicator for Human-Environment Interactions in the Last 190,000 years (Project)
The F3 project focuses on the relation of human population dynamics with fire. Changes in climate, vegetation and land use frequently went along with regional burning events. On the other hand, from a point of time, yet unknown and certainly long before the beginning of the Neolithic age, fire became an important means of human impact on landscapes. Left behind was black carbon (BC) from...

SFB 806 F4: Climate Change in the Northern and Western Black Sea Region Based on U-Th isochron Dated Stalagmites from the Crimean Peninsula and Eastern Romania (Project)
I propose to use stalagmites from karst caves in Ukraine (Crimean Peninsula) and Eastern Romania (Dobrogea Mountains) for precise and accurately dated palaeoclimatic reconstruction in the Black Sea region since MIS 3. The main objective is to obtain a reliable chronology of climate change on the basis of detailed U-Th dating, using an isochron approach to accurately correct for detrital 230Th...
