Late Quaternary Extinctions: State of the Debate (2006, background): “However, robust paleoecological reconstructions of the structure of Pleistocene biomes are in their infancy (e.g., Williams et al. 2000).”
Applications of species distribution modeling to paleobiology (2011, background): “The restriction of some forest species to lower latitudes also had consequences for organisms in other biomes; desert biomes in western North America were replaced by woodlands during the LGM (Swetnam et al., 1999), with warm desert organisms possibly persisting in isolated refugia at lower latitude”
Beringia as a glacial refugium for boreal trees and shrubs: new perspectives from mapped pollen data (2005, methodology): “Given the similar distances of WB and EB to glacial-age boreal forests in temperate latitudes of Asia and North America, the widespread presence of Picea pollen in EB and Pinus pollen in WB indicates that Picea and Pinus survived within these respective regions.”
Geographical distribution and ecological conservatism of disjunct genera of vascular plants in eastern Asia and eastern North America (2004, background): “During the Last Glacial Maximum (18 000 year BP), boreal forest or ice sheets occupied much of the current range of the disjunct genera in North America (Williams et al. 2000).”
Forgotten Grasslands of the South: Natural History and Conservation (2012, background): “Adapted from Williams et al. (2000), who raised pollen thresholds to reduce the probability of misassignments, with full-glacial shoreline and ice sheet margin adapted from Delcourt and Delcourt (1981).”
Deterministic Plio‐Pleistocene extinctions in the European cool‐temperate tree flora (2003, unknown): “In eastern Asia and eastern North America, large areas harboured temperate forest even during the last glacial maximum (Takahara et al. 2000; Williams et al. 2000; Yu et al. 2000).”
A QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF THE RANGE SHIFTS OF PLEISTOCENE MAMMALS (2003, background): “Rather, analog vegetation and nonanalog vegetation are recognized (Edwards et al. 2000; Elenga et al. 2000; Overpeck et al. 1992; Prentice and Jolly 2000; Takahara et al. 2000; Tarasov et al. 2000; Thompson and Anderson 2000; Webb 1981, 1992; Williams et al. 2000, 2001; Yu et al. 2000).”
Quaternary pollen analysis: recent progress in palaeoecology and palaeoclimatology (2003, background): “…provide continental-scale overviews which are not temporally or regionally precise but are designed to reflect the dynamics of the global biomes over millennial timescales, often for comparisons with the biomes simulated by general circulation models (Prentice et al., 2000; Williams et al., 2000)”
Pollen‐based reconstructions of biome distributions for Australia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific (SEAPAC region) at 0, 6000 and 18,000 14C yr BP (2004, methodology): “We considered the suite of PFTs defined in biomizations of other regions of the world (Prentice et al., 1996; Jolly et al., 1998b; Tarasov et al., 1998; Yu et al., 1998; Edwards et al., 2000; Elenga et al., 2000; Takahara et al., 2000; Thompson & Anderson, 2000; Williams et al., 2000; Yu et al., 200”
Of mice, mastodons and men: human-mediated extinctions on four continents (2004, background): “However, there is little evidence for the wholesale reorganization of vegetation or mammalian communities; most did not disappear altogether, but simply shifted location (Webb, 1981, 1992; Overpeck et al., 1992; Alroy, 1999; Edwards et al., 2000; Elenga et al., 2000; Prentice and Jolly, 2000; Takaha”
EcoVeg: a new approach to vegetation description and classification (2014, background): “…and dynamic nature of vegetation, modelers of both climate and land-cover changes also recognize the merits of describing the dynamics of vegetation types (Leemans 1997, Williams et al. 2000, Mitchell 2005, Willis and Birks 2006, Beckage et al. 2008, Chiarucci et al. 2010, Williams and Baker 2011).”
