The Last shows how rising will transform habitats

Story by Chrissy Sexton, August 31, 2023

"The results of the study show that higher global temperatures will trigger a rise in sea levels that will lead to instability and profound changes to coastal , including Marshes, forests, and islands.

"'Mangroves and tidal act as a buffer between the ocean and the land – they absorb the impact of wave action, prevent erosion and are crucial for of fisheries and coastal plants,' said study lead author Neil Saintilan of Macquarie University. 'When the plants become water-logged due to higher sea levels, they start to flounder."

"In the worst-case scenarios, these coastal habitats, will shrink - and in some cases wash away - as they have in the distant past, according to the study."

350000 years ago, just beyond the western edge of the icy , has come to the steppe. A raven flies over a group of steppe mammoths enjoying a cold bath in the Oos river, while a grazes on some choice plants growing on the riverbanks. With the harsh winter in retreat for a few months, a flock of greylag geese migrates north, a buzzard hunts, and a small pack of wolves watch a herd of steppe and some roe deer.

@berangere444 @archaeodons Hi! I would like to take advantage of the day. I would like to know why *most* of the museum visual interpretations of people are still portraying white males? How do you react to this kind of parallel reality? Also, do you have any reading recommendation to learn about how whites are normalized in the ? Thanks!

Its Jim van Dijk has spent the last few months building the world's first reconstruction of a southern mammoth for the Museum Historyland Hellevoetsluis in Hellevoetsluis, Netherlands.

Not only is the sculpture just an awesome site but Dick β€œSir Mammoth” Mol was a consultant on the project.

Behold the deep time of human artistic creativity!

About 40,000 years ago, during the , this small figurine was masterfully sculpted from mammoth ivory.

Known as the Vogelherd Horse it is one of the world’s earliest known works of figurative art. πŸ“· my own

Halcyon holocene days have elapsed

Like hours whiled away waiting

For a time to come that has already passed

Certainty a luxury of the past

Fate intertwined with a planet ailing

This skull from Bannack, Montana, and butchered tibia from New Ulm, Minnesota highlight both the modern mystique and the utility of the horse.

Happy ! 🦬πŸͺ🦣πŸ¦₯πŸ¦«πŸƒ What is the most common Bison bison specimen found in river gravels besides teeth in Southern Minnesota? It's usually a metacarpal or a metatarsal.

These stout solid bones survive well within a river's fluvial processes. Here are a few example specimens.🦴

The beautifully shaped ice-pushed ridges between Nijmegen (the Netherlands) and Kleve (Germany). You can see the two basins formed by the glacier tongues in the Saale glaciation. The northern edge of the ice pushed ridges is notably eroded by the rivers Rhine and Waal, whereas the southern edge is eroded by the rivers Niers and Meuse.

In the Prehistoric Museum in Blaubeuren , the tools of the people are presented in a new way. The new rooms focus on one topic: survival in the face of in prehistoric times.
