Land-use intensification processes, viewed as adaptive processes by which human populations systematically adopt increasingly productive land-use technologies, have major implications for understanding the dynamics of land use and its potential impacts over the Holocene.
“Processes of land-use intensification, if viewed more broadly as adaptive processes by which human populations systematically adopt increasingly productive land-use technologies, have major implications for understanding the dynamics of land use and its potential impacts over the Holocene (24)”

The early presence but limited application of more productive agricultural land-use technologies agrees with the classic theory of induced intensification, in which technology adoption is driven not by rates of technological innovation but by demographic pressures for increased agricultural yields as populations increase and land becomes scarce.

Hypotheses relating human activity to historical climate change have yet to be tested rigorously under the full range of plausible historical conditions.
“As a result, hypotheses relating human activity to historical climate change have yet to be tested rigorously under the full range of plausible historical conditions (4, 24).”

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.
