Paleoambiente y asentamiento humano en Japón y Corea
Science (New York, N.Y.)
|September 23, 1977
Resumen
El antiguo Japón experimentó cambios climáticos significativos, que influyeron en la cultura Jomon.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Paleoclimatología Paleoclimatología
- Arqueología Arqueología.
- La Antropología Antropología Antropología.
Sus antecedentes:
- El clima de Japón fluctuó entre períodos más fríos y más cálidos durante los últimos 12.000 años.
- La transgresión marina de Jomon se produjo durante un período cálido significativo, lo que afectó a los entornos costeros.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Para analizar los cambios impulsados por el clima en la cultura Jomon, incluidos los patrones de subsistencia y asentamiento.
- Investigar los cambios ambientales y de asentamiento en la península coreana durante períodos comparables.
Principales métodos:
- Análisis de los datos paleoclimáticos de Japón.
- Examen de la evidencia arqueológica de Jomon, incluidos los diseños de las aldeas y las relaciones entre sitios.
- Revisión de los datos ambientales y de asentamiento disponibles de la península coreana.
Principales resultados:
- La cultura Jomon se adaptó al cambio climático con estrategias de subsistencia en evolución y ubicaciones de asentamientos.
- Las inundaciones costeras durante la transgresión marina de Jomon alteraron los patrones de asentamiento.
- La evidencia preliminar sugiere desplazamientos de asentamientos similares de las zonas costeras a las zonas elevadas en Corea.
Conclusiones:
- El cambio climático fue un factor significativo en la configuración de la cultura Jomon y la dinámica de los asentamientos en Japón.
- El análisis comparativo indica posibles paralelos en la adaptación ambiental entre Japón y Corea.
- Se necesitan más investigaciones para reconstruir completamente la historia ambiental de la península coreana y las respuestas culturales.

01:50Global Climate Change
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.
02:06Conditions on Early Earth
Around 4 billion years ago, oceans began to condense on earth while volcanic eruptions released nitrogen, carbon dioxide, methane, ammonia, and hydrogen into the primordial atmosphere. However, organisms with the characteristics of life were not initially present on earth. Scientists have used experimentation to determine how organisms evolved that could grow, reproduce, and maintain an internal environment.

02:56The Fossil Record
The fossil record documents only a small fraction of all organisms that have ever inhabited Earth. Fossilization is a rare process, and most organisms never become fossils. Moreover, the fossil record only exhibits fossils that have been discovered. Nevertheless, sedimentary rock fossils of long-lived, abundant, hard-bodied organisms dominate the fossil record. These fossils offer valuable information, such as an organism's physical form, behavior, and age. Studying the fossil record helps...
02:35What is Evolutionary History?
Scientists record evolutionary history by analyzing fossil, morphological, and genetic data. The fossil record documents the history of life on Earth and provides evidence for evolution. However, both fossil and living organisms offer evidence that outlines Earth’s evolutionary history.Phylogenetic trees illustrate the evolutionary relationships among these organisms. Scientists infer organisms’ common ancestry by evaluating shared morphological and genetic characteristics. Together, the fossil...
01:50Threats to Biodiversity
There have been five major extinction events throughout geological history, resulting in the elimination of biodiversity, followed by a rebound of species that adapted to the new conditions. In the current geological epoch, the Holocene, there is a sixth extinction event in progress. This mass extinction has been attributed to human activities and is thus provisionally called the Anthropocene. In 2019 the human population reached 7.7 billion people and is projected to comprise 10 billion by...
