Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-0041-0507 Implications of population changes among the Arvicolinae (Rodentia, Mammalia) in El Mirón Cave (Cantabria, Spain) for the climate of the last c. 50,000 years 2023 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted The El Mirón Cave site in Spain has one of the most complete archaeological and palaeontological records of the Late Pleistocene in the Iberian Peninsula, encompassing most of the last c. 50,000 years. Among other studies, the fossiliferous record has allowed the development of various interpretations of faunal and climatic changes during this period of time in the northern Atlantic region of the Iberian Peninsula. The addition of more radiocarbon dates from El Mirón Cave make it possible to revise some of the interpretations of the micromammal sequence carried out earlier for this major site. The record of small mammals is one of the most used tools to study the climate of the past, and among them the several Arvicolinae species are of great importance for the study of Quaternary climatic variations, due to their adaptations to a great diversity of habitats. New methodologies such as ancient DNA and geometric morphometric analyses now permit us to conduct a review of the Arvicolinae species previously described at this site and better to differentiate between species with similar morphologies, like Microtus arvalis and M. agrestis. We also identified the presence of a species not recorded before in El Mirón, Terricola pyrenaicus. With the study of the Arvicolinae species associations, we reaffirm the climate variations originally described in this deposit, indicating in detail how the successive changes in temperature and environment took place throughout the course of the late Last Glacial and early Postglacial periods (Marine Isotope Stages 3–1). info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MCIU/FPU20-02031 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN-AEI-FEDER/PGC2018-093925-B-C33 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-nd http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 3.2 2023 GEOGRAPHY, PHYSICAL 16 / 65 = 0.246 2023 Q1 T1 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY 70 / 254 = 0.276 2023 Q2 T1 1.558 2023 Archeology 2023 Q1 Archeology (arts and humanities) 2023 Q1 Global and Planetary Change 2023 Q1 Geology 2023 Q1 Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics 2023 Q1 7.5 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Cuenca-Bescós, G.
