Santa Cruz Island Reserve

09 Dec, 07 AM - 11 Dec, 04 AM

This project will test the nature and timing of paleo-environmental changes that occurred on the Northern Channel Islands (NCI) of California during the latest Pleistocene. In particular, we will test the hypothesis that the deforestation of the islands and onset of island-wide erosion and sedimentation were abrupt and synchronous events caused by increased fire intensity and/or fire frequency ? perhaps associated with the arrival of the first humans and/or the extinction of mammoths that occupied the islands until ~13-15 ka.
