    International audience ; Reliable quantitative vegetation reconstructions for Europe during the Holocene are crucial to improving our understanding of landscape dynamics, making it possible to assess the past effects of environmental variables and land-use change on ecosystems and biodiversity, and mitigating their effects in the future. We present here the most spatially extensive and temporally continuous pollen-based reconstructions of plant cover in Europe (at a spatial resolution of 1° × 1°) over the Holocene (last 11.7 ka BP) using the ‘Regional Estimates of VEgetation Abundance from Large Sites’ (REVEALS) model. This study has three main aims. First, to present the most accurate and reliable generation of REVEALS reconstructions across Europe so far. This has been achieved by including a larger number of pollen records compared to former analyses, in particular from the Mediterranean area. Second, to discuss methodological issues in the quantification of past land cover by using alternative datasets of relative pollen productivities (RPPs), one of the key input parameters of REVEALS, to test model sensitivity. Finally, to validate our reconstructions with the global forest change dataset. The results suggest that the RPPs.st1 (31 taxa) dataset is best suited to producing regional vegetation cover estimates for Europe. These reconstructions offer a long-term perspective providing unique possibilities to explore spatial-temporal changes in past land cover and biodiversity.

    We live in a new world: the Anthropocene. The Age of Man is defined in many ways, and most dramatically through climate change, mass extinction, and human marks in the geological record. Ideas of the Anthropocene spill out from the geophysical sciences into the humanities, social sciences, the arts, and mainstream debates--but it's hard to know what the new coinage really means. This book argues that this age should subvert imperial masculinity and industrial conquest by opening up the plural possibilities of Anthropocene debates of resilience, adaptation, and the struggle for environmental justice

    Die Entdeckung der geologischen Tiefenzeit in der Literatur der Romantik bis in die Gegenwart. Wie lässt sich die Geschichte der Erde erzählen? Wie ist eine Literatur beschaffen, die sich auf die fremde Zeitlichkeit von nicht-menschlichen Protagonisten und Materien einlässt, auf Erdatmosphäre und Witterung, auf Ozeane, Gletscher und Gebirge? Seit der Entstehung der Geologie zu Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts zeigt sich die Literatur fasziniert und verstört zugleich von der zeitlichen Skalierung erdgeschichtlicher Prozesse. Oliver Völker folgt den Verlaufslinien dieser von der Romantik bis in die Gegenwart reichenden Anziehungsgeschichte zwischen der Literatur und den Naturwissenschaften und fragt nach den genuin literarischen Darstellungs- und Inszenierungsformen von geologischen und klimatischen Vorgängen, deren Zeitlichkeit sich ab 1800 zunehmend mit der Geschichte des Menschen verschränkt. In textnahen Lektüren werden narrative Darstellungsformen herausgearbeitet, die als Bestandteile einer eigenständigen Poetik der Natur verstanden werden können und mit Blick auf aktuelle Debatten zum Anthropozän an Dringlichkeit gewinnen.

    Fiction and the Sixth Mass Extinction is one of the first works to focus specifically on fiction's engagements with human driven extinction. Drawing together a diverse group of scholars and approaches, this volume pairs established voices in the field with emerging scholars and traditionally recognized cli-fi with texts and media typically not associated with Anthropocene fictions. The result is a volume that both engages with and furthers existing work on Anthropocene fiction as well as laying groundwork for the budding subfield of extinction fiction. This volume takes up the collective insistence on the centrality of story to extinction studies. In various and disparate ways, each chapter engages with the stories we tell about extinction, about the extinction of animal and plant life, and about the extinction of human life itself. Answering the call to action of extinction studies, these chapters explore what kinds of humanity caused this event and what kinds may live through it; what cultural assumptions and values led to this event and which ones could lead out of it; what relationships between human life and this planet allowed the sixth mass extinction and what alternative relationships could be possible
