The Southern Deserts Conference is an interdisciplinary meeting that promotes a comparative perspective on the Quaternary evolution of desert landscapes and peoples from the southern Hemisphere (Oceania, Africa and South America). This endeavor is necessarily based on a fluid dialogue between Paleoecology, Geology, and Archaeology.

This third edition of Reconstructing Quaternary Environments has been completely revised and updated to provide a new account of the history and scale of environmental changes during the Quaternary. The evidence is extremely diverse ranging from landforms and sediments to fossil assemblages and geochemical data, and includes new data from terrestrial, marine and ice-core records.

Holocene Lake Mega-Chad (LMC) was the largest late Quaternary water-body in Africa. The development of this giant paleo-lake is related to a northward shift of the isohyetes interpreted as evidence for an enhanced Monsoon (African Humid Period). The Little Ice Age (LIA) was a period of cooling that occurred after the Medieval Warm Period.

Although it was not a true ice age, the term was introduced into scientific literature by François E. Matthes in It has been conventionally defined as a period extending from the 16th to the 19th centuries, but some experts prefer an alternative timespan from about to about The success of our book on Quaternary Environments (Edward Arnold, London) encouraged us to prepare a thoroughly updated and expanded second edition (Arnold Quaternary Palaeoclimates of the Southern Hemisphere.

The Quaternary comprises a brief time in the Earth’s history, and apart from a few exceptions, molluscan assemblages recovered from exposures along the coast of Southwestern South America (Southern Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina) are essentially the same than those that inhabit the region today, leading to the assumption that no important change in the distribution of the faunas since.
