0214870BrantinghamThis is a 36-month AWARE project submitted by Dr. Jeffery Brantingham, Santa Fe Institute with Professor MA Haizhou, Qinghai Institute of Salt Lakes, Xinning, China, to study the Pleistocene hunter-gatherers of the Tibetan Plateau, and to provide an REU training opportunity for six "exceptional" U.S. undergraduate students. This is an excellent proposal to understand late Pleistocene human colonization and adaptation to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau region. This study nicely integrates archeological, paleo-environmental, and geochronological research strategies to answer questions of broad importance in the study of evolution of behaviorally modern humans. This project provides excellent opportunities for U.S. undergraduate students to be trained in archeology and to learn to carry out field research in the western part of China. It also develops paleoclimatic proxy records that can be integrated into regional and global models of climate variability and change. The NSF and the Chinese Academy of Sciences jointly support this project.

0214870 Brantingham这是一个为期36个月的AWARE项目，由圣达菲研究所的Jeffery Brantingham博士和中国新宁青海盐湖研究所的马海洲教授提交，旨在研究青藏高原更新世的狩猎采集者，并为六名“特殊”的美国本科生提供REU培训机会。 这是了解晚更新世人类定居和适应青藏高原地区的一个很好的建议。 这项研究很好地整合了考古学，古环境和地质年代学的研究策略，以回答在行为现代人类进化研究中具有广泛重要性的问题。 该项目为美国本科生提供了接受考古学培训和学习在中国西部进行实地研究的绝佳机会。 它还开发了古气候代用记录，可将其纳入气候变异和变化的区域和全球模型。 美国国家科学基金会和中国科学院共同支持这个项目。
