Fire-climate-human relationships in Australian tropical savannas are poorly understood in pre-industrial periods, particularly at centennial to millennial time-scales. Stalagmites from a cave in the Kimberley region hold the potential for high-resolution paleofire reconstruction from pyrogenic organic compounds spanning these timescales.

Abstract

Fire-climate-human relationships in Australian tropical savannas are poorly understood in pre-industrial periods, particularly at centennial to millennial time-scales. Stalagmites from a cave in the Kimberley region hold the potential for high-resolution paleofire reconstruction from pyrogenic organic compounds spanning these timescales.
