Humans rather than climate the primary cause of Pleistocene megafaunal extinction in Australia
Megafaunal extinction in Australia has been attributed to both climate change and human causation. Here, van der Kaarset al. present a 150,000 year record offshore southwest Australia in which they refine the timing and nature of regional ecosystem changes and megafaunal population collapse.
