The Holocene spans the 11,500 years since the end of the last Ice
Age and has been a period of major global environmental change.
However the rate of change has accelerated during the last hundred
years, due largely to human impacts and this has led to a growing
concern for the future of our environmental resources. Global
Change in the Holocene demonstrates how reconstructing the record
of past environmental change can provide us with essential
knowledge about how our environment works and presents the reader
with an informed viewpoint from which to project realistic future
scenarios. The book brings together key techniques that are widely
used in Holocene research, such as radiocarbon dating,
dendrochronology and sediment analysis and offers a comprehensive
analysis of various archives of environmental change including
instrumental and documentary records, corals, lake sediments,
glaciers and ice cores. This reference is an informative and
cutting-edge resource for students of climate change, environmental
science, geography, palaeoecology and archaeology.
