Land mass and major landform classification On a gross scale, the land areas of the earth are classified first of all intocontinents, seven in number: North and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and Antarctica (for statistics seeContinents and Oceans). In the past, there has bee...
In 1498, on his third voyage across the Atlantic, Christopher Columbus was moved to describe the new land mass he had just come upon as "una teta de muger": the nipple of a woman.1 Having earlier likened the entire globe to a woman's bre... A Knobler - Palgrave Macmillan US 被引量...

Each set of faunas was tested for significant differences in climate (mean annual precipitation, mean annual temperature) and functional traits (body mass, locomotion and diet). Results In North America, climatic differentiation exists at the scale where mammals are divided into 11 or fewer distinct...

The Paleogene floras of Patagonia and Chile show a climatic pattern that approximates that of North America, with an increase in both Mean Annual Temperature (MAT) and Mean Annual Precipitation (MAP) from the Paleocene into the Early Eocene Climatic Optimum (EECO), although the Paleocene-Eocene...
By identifying potential vegetation source areas associated with air mass pathways we were able to produce the first detailed record of pollen transport from eastern North America to Narsarsuaq, southern Greenland. The record is based on observations and on a transport and dispersion model used to...
