About Francis Mayle

Francis Mayle, With an exceptional h-index of 49 and a recent h-index of 32 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at University of Reading, specializes in the field of Tropical palaeoecology, Amazonia, South America, pollen analysis.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Differing local‐scale responses of Bolivian Amazon forest ecotones to middle Holocene drought based upon multiproxy soil data

An assessment of soil phytolith analysis as a palaeoecological tool for identifying pre-Columbian land use in Amazonian rainforests

Fire-human-climate interactions in the Bolivian Amazon rainforest ecotone from the Last Glacial Maximum to late Holocene

Spatial and temporal abilities of proxies used to detect pre-Columbian Indigenous human activity in Amazonian ecosystems

Late Holocene mangrove dynamics of the Doce River delta, southeastern Brazil: implications for the understanding of mangrove resilience to sea-level changes and channel dynamics

Evidence confirms an anthropic origin of Amazonian Dark Earths

Response of Amazonian forests to mid‐Holocene drought: A model‐data comparison

Floristic change in Brazil's Southern Atlantic forest biodiversity hotspot: From the last glacial maximum to the late 21st century
