The observation of 127 impact traces allowed us to distinguish three main types of traces: notches, punctures and perforations.
The identification of projectile impact traces on archaeological faunal remains is an important issue for understanding prehistoric hunting behavior, especially in the Paleolithic and Mesolithic.
For the main analysis, published articles in the year 2003 were considered and their citation impact traced for the 5-year window start 2003-end 2007.
For example, the new Global Environmental Management Initiative (GEMI) local water tool (LWT), which focuses on local water impacts, traces its roots back to the 2002 launch of Connecting the Drops, a 5-module water sustainability tool, and the 2007 launch of Collecting the Drops 3-module water sustainability planner.
The relationships between the nature of the impact traces and the (i) target species, (ii) characteristics of the impacted bones, and (iii) type of weapon are presented.
The subsequent study demonstrates that positive identifications of impact traces left by osseous points can be made.
Here we present results of controlled experiments, using backed point replicas, designed to test a correlation between impact velocities and impact trace patterns.
Macroscopic and microscopic analyses of experimental replicas indicated that complex fracture formation, including large numbers and dimensions of spin-offs as well as distinctive microscopic linear impact traces (MLITs), provide useful markers for determining mechanically-delivered backed points.
The goal of this study is to reveal the evolution history of the O. officinalis complex, particularly the polyploidization and its genomic impact, by tracing C-genome differentiating and dispersing process.
On the basis of shallow-groundwater level monitoring data the impact was traced back to the effect of the Danube's changed flow course, and quantized for the whole study area.
