“…A further important question is whether global temperature and humidity fluctuations during the Quaternary have been in phase (cf. Nanson et al, 1992); if temperature and humidity have been covariant during the last climatic cycle in Europe, their individual effects will be difficult to isolate.…”

“…Similarly, aridity/humidity cycles are believed to be of considerable importance in Australia, set against a background of increasing aridity since the mid-Pleistocene (cf. Nanson et al, 1992Nanson et al, , 1995.…”

“…Similarly, glacially wet conditions pertained in glacial age catchments in the Flinders Ranges (Williams et al 2001). Basins more distant from effective water supply, between or away from streams, responded more sensitively to the onset of aridity (Nanson et al 1992;Kershaw and Nanson 1993;Magee et al 1995;Hesse et al 2004).…”

“…It is also clear that megafauna living during SU6 experienced more arid conditions compared with those occurring during the formation of SU9. These data, together with published climatic data, lend support to a climatic downturn in the lead-up to the LGM (Nanson et al 1992;Kershaw et al 2003;Cohen et al 2011;Wroe et al 2013). The deteriorating climatic conditions that would have driven significant environmental reconfiguration during MIS3 may have strongly impacted the megafauna suite that persisted during the late Pleistocene in arid southeastern Sahul.…”
