Changements climatiques dans la péninsule arabique durant le Pléistocène supérieur et l'Holocène.
Open accessAbstract
The paleoclimatic evolution of the Arabian peninsula is not well known so far. Two humid phases, dated respectively 30 kyr to 20 kyr BP and 10 kyr to 6 kyr BP, have often been described. On the western Oman piedmont and on the Red Sea shores, two older and more important humid phases can be traced. Three of these wet periods fit well with a shifting to the north of the monsoon summer rains, as observed in the Sahara, related with an insolation forcing; they correspond with Interglacials. The first wet period can be situated during the isotopic stage 5e, the second one during the stage 5a, followed by a progressive drying up which allowed the elaboration of a huge piedmont glacis; the fourth one is Holocene. It is more difficult to date and to interpret the third one, clearly more important than the last one : it could be related to a shifting to the south of the temperate

Climatic conditions in the Peninsula were generally wetter than today at certain periods during the Pleistocene.
“That feature of the archaeological distribution, together with geological indications of water flow in the form of stream deposits, tufas, and lake deposits in the arid interior (Sanlaville 1992), also shows that climatic conditions in the Peninsula were generally wetter than today at certain periods during the Pleistocene.”

Sanlaville (1992) identified evidence for four wet phases since the Last Interglacial, based on alluvial sediments, travertines, tufas, calcretes, and lake deposits indicating higher levels of precipitation than today.
“Sanlaville (1992), in summarising evidence in the form of alluvial sediments, travertines, tufas, calcretes, and lake deposits indicating higher levels of precipitation than today, also identified evidence for four wet phases since the Last Interglacial.”

“Rainfall in coastal and lowland regions rarely exceeds 180 mm per year, with semi-desert vegetation that supports a sparse fauna of rodents and antelopes (Head 1987; Sanlaville 1992).”

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.
