New Approaches to Understanding Late Quaternary Climate Fluctuations and Refugial Dynamics in Australian Wet Tropical Rain Forests

Aim: We created spatially explicit models of palaeovegetation stability for the rain forests of the Australia Wet Tropics. We accounted for the climatic fluctuations of the late Quaternary, improving upon previous palaeovegetation modelling for the region in terms of data, approach and coverage of p...
