  • The overall extent to which lowland Amazonia was actively transformed into a modified landscape or cultural parkland by native people remains unknown and debated.

    “However, the overall extent to which lowland Amazonia was actively transformed into a modified landscape or cultural parkland by native people remains unknown and debated [6-10].”

    From Predicting pre-columbian anthropogenic soils in amazonia (2014) · cites this paper as [6]

  • Terra preta formation has been estimated to occur in as much as 10% of the forests.

    “Terra preta formation has been estimated to occur in as much as 10% of the forests [6,7], but a prediction derived from empirical data and modelling is lacking.”

    From Predicting pre-columbian anthropogenic soils in amazonia (2014) · cites this paper as [6]

  • Our estimates of potential terra preta sites were significantly less than the previous estimates of 10%.

    “Our estimates of potential terra preta sites were significantly less than the previous estimates of 10% [6,7] and did not support the assertion that most of Amazonia was a transformed landscape or cultural parkland before European arrival.”

    From Predicting pre-columbian anthropogenic soils in amazonia (2014) · cites this paper as [6]

  • Other 'anthropogenic' forests that were formed in pre-Columbian periods may be identifiable within the forest today, as some species, including some palms, were heavily promoted species.

    “Other 'anthropogenic' forests that were formed in pre-Columbian periods may be identifiable within the forest today, as some species, including some palms, were heavily promoted species [6,70-72].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
