Signals of anthropogenic change (artefacts, anthropogenically modified vegetal and animal biotas) reflect the expansion and shifting nature of the human domain.
“the signals of anthropogenic change (artefacts, anthropogenically modified vegetal and animal biotas) reflect the expansion and shifting nature of the human domain (e.g. Brown et al., 2013)”
From When did the Anthropocene begin? A mid-twentieth century boundary level is stratigraphically optimal (2015) · cites this paper as Brown et al., 2013
Evidence from stream-valley alluviation and terrace formation has demonstrated that even seemingly 'natural' landforms and depositional processes are a complex product of human alterations.
“Evidence from stream-valley alluviation and terrace formation have demonstrated that even seemingly 'natural' landforms and depositional processes are a complex product of human alterations of everything from changes in local base levels (e.g., from dams) to greatly increased sediment loads and rates of deposition associated with agriculture and land cover changes”
From A practical solution: the Anthropocene is a geological event, not a formal epoch (2022) · cites this paper as Brown et al., 2013
Sediment fluxes in many fluvial systems increased through greater deforestation, livestock grazing and cropland development.
“Sediment fluxes in many fluvial systems increased through greater deforestation, livestock grazing and cropland development.”

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.
