Peer review working?

The science publishing and peer-review process gets a lot of grief, often for good reason. Many fruitful areas of paradigm changing research languish outside the major journals and never pass from the gatekeepers to the printing press. But thankfully the YDIH, despite the controversy and “robust” debate, appears regularly in the world’s top earth science publications. This is a…

Bibliography and Paper Archive Permanent Page

See permanent page here Readers may recall a few months ago the Tusk and Australian university student Marc Young compiled a bibliography and archive file of all the YDIH publications since the seminal PNAS publication in 2007. I have taken the files and given them a permanent home here. The publication history of the subject is a long and complex one, but the arc of of the subject clearly bends…

NY Post Gizmodo Quartz Francis Thackeray This confirmation of a South African platinum layer from the Younger Dryas Impact was particularly welcome for several reasons.  First, it is another confirmation of evidence for  the impact in the Southern Hemisphere, following the Pilauco paper from Chile in March of this year.
