“…These processes occur principally in semiarid climates, which is corroborated by the pedogenic processes identified in the soil (weathering and incipient humification and carbonation), indicating low water availability. Also, the isotopic composition of organic matter indicates a vegetation cover of mixed composition, probably of desert scrub, leguminous trees, and some grassland Cruz-y-Cruz et al, 2016). Also, the delimitation of the geomorphological units of the alluvial fans allowed identifying that the BOP was formed in the Q4a unit, which was formed during the late Holocene in a dry climate, according to Bull's model (1991).…”

“…Mientras que los gonfoterios fueron animales que podían incluir en su dieta hojas de árboles, frutos y pastos y que residían en bosques o pastizales (Asevedo et al, 2012;Metcalfe, 2017;Smith y DeSantis, 2018). En cambio, estos mismos estudios muestran que los tapires eran especialistas en el consumo de plantas C 3 y preferían bosques o selvas para habitar como sus contrapartes actuales (DeSantis, 2011 biente se volvió húmedo favoreciendo la presencia de plantas C 3 y finalmente hacia los 7000 años AP se establecieron las condiciones áridas que persisten en la actualidad en el sitio (Cruz-y-Cruz et al, 2016). Para Rancho La Amapola, la Tabla 1 y la Figura 3 muestran la existencia de animales con diferentes hábitos alimenticios y de hábitat.…”

“…Los mamuts de Tocuila muestran la presencia de un individuo que se alimentó de plantas C 4 y habitaba en pastizales y cuatro individuos de dieta mixta C 3 /C 4 que habitaron una zona de vegetación también mixta, lo cual muestra la existencia de un pastizal con algunos árboles (Tabla 1, Figura 4). Diversos estudios palinológicos y análisis de paleosuelos realizados en la Cuenca de México revelan la existencia de bosques en zonas altas y de pastizales y algunos árboles en la parte baja, mismos que se expandían y retraían como consecuencia de las fluctuaciones climáticas de finales del Pleistoceno tardío (Caballero et al, 2010;Cruz-y-Cruz et al, 2016). En el caso de Valsequillo, se observa que los gonfoterios y un mamut vivían en zonas con algún grado de cobertura arbórea y tenían dietas mixtas C 3 /C 4 junto con caballos, carpinchos, perezosos terrestres y un mamut que se alimentaban de plantas C 4 y habitaban en pastizales, lo que indica que en este sitio la vegetación fue heterogénea (Tabla 1, Figura 5).…”

“…They concluded that this region was predominated by arid and cold conditions where a mixed C 3 /C 4 vegetation developed. Although carbon isotope ratios provide information on the potential vegetation types that existed in a locality, Cruzy- Cruz et al (2016) used neither isotopic oxygen ratios of dental enamel, which give additional information about the climate that prevailed at a given site (Sánchez, 1997).…”

“…), horse, and mammoth (Mammuthus columbi) samples. These values were contrasted with δ 13 C values of dental enamel samples of these same specimens and with the carbon isotopic data for paleosols reported by Cruz-y-Cruz et al (2016) in order to explore potential differences or similarities with the El Arenoso paleoenvironment previously proposed from carbon isotopic values of paleosols.…”
