ASEF Publications: Updating Fall 2024
New!
The ASEF team recently published an article in Current Biology which uses sedaDNA to understand the impact of early pastoralism on forest structure during the Neolithic and Bronze Age. This work was recently featured in New Scientist, and in an editorial by Professor Anna Linderhold.
Our team has a public news release describing the results, and the full article can be accessed free here until Nov. 20 2024. Full access will eventually be post here.
