Late Holocene Paleoclimatic Stress and Prehistoric Human Occupation on San Clemente Island (Legacy 91-083/91-473)
PROJECT Andrew Yasko.

This doctoral dissertation discusses a study supporting the thesis that adverse paleoenvironmental conditions during the late Holocene appear to have notably influenced prehistoric cultural evolution in the Southern California Bight region. Radiocarbon dating confirmed changes in prehistoric settlement patterning, indicating a movement toward more reliable water sources, during the Medieval Climate Anomaly (AD 650-1250).

Late Holocene Relative Sea-Level Changes and the Earthquake Deformation Cycle Around Upper Cook Inlet, Alaska (2005)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Ian Shennan. Sarah Hamilton.

This document details the history of relative seas level changes and earthquake deformation cycles in Cook Inlet, Alaska. Multiple peat-silt couplets preserved in tidal marsh sediment sequences suggest that numerous great plate boundary earthquakes caused the coast around Cook Inlet, Alaska, to subside over the past 3500 years. Field and laboratory analyses of the two youngest couplets record the well-documented earthquake of AD 1964 and the penultimate one, approximately 850 call yr BP. Diatom...


Niche Construction and Common Pool Resource Management in Marginal Environments: A Diachronic Approach (WGF - Dissertation Fieldwork Grant) (2018)
DOCUMENT Full-Text R. J. Sinensky.

This resource is an application for the Dissertation Fieldwork Grant from the Wenner-Gren Foundation. Anthropologists have long been concerned with the immense variety of collective institutions developed by small-scale societies to foster solidarity, inculcate values, and manage resources. Long-term studies tracking the development and maintenance of such institutions would greatly benefit a range of social science disciplines, but are unfortunately rare. To this end, the proposed project...

An Overview of Alaskan's Prehistoric Cultures (2018)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Thomas E. Gillispie.

This report provides an overview which adopts a basic approach that describes the broadest outlines of Alaska’s prehistoric culture history as seen against the backdrop of these environmental changes and geographic divides. Results of the many more advanced analyses of prehistoric behavior are omitted for the sake of simplicity, as are the details of the many scholarly debates important in the archaeological literature.
