Abstract The middle Yangtze Reach is one of the most developed regions of China. As a
result, most lakes in this area have suffered from eutrophication and serious environmental …

Abstract In Asia, especially in China, our knowledge of the distribution of testate amoebae is
still limited. In this paper, the geographical distribution of testate amoebae in Tibetan Plateau …

Deep high-altitude mountain lakes can act as a natural laboratory, and have the potential to
contribute ecological data for understanding the way natural climate and anthropogenic …

We present a testate amoebae training set for building a paleohydrology transfer function.
Ninety-one samples were collected from three Sphagnum peatlands in the Lesser Khingan …

To explore the use of testate amoeba for investigating the impacts of climate change on
permafrost peatland hydrology, we established a new modern training set from Arctic …

Testate amoebae from a large fen peatland of China were investigated in August 2009.
Thirty-six testate amoebae species belonging to 16 genera and one rotifer were identified …

High-latitude peatlands are changing rapidly in response to climate change, including
permafrost thaw. Here, we reconstruct hydrological conditions since the seventeenth century …

Fossil testate amoeba assemblages have been used to reconstruct peatland
palaeohydrology for more than two decades. While transfer function training sets are …

Abstract The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) is characterized by a vast number of frozen and
unfrozen freshwater reservoirs, which is why it is also called “the third pole” of the Earth or …

Testate amoebae are unicellular protists that build a test (shell), in which a single amoeboid
cell is enclosed. They occur worldwide in a range of terrestrial, wetland, freshwater and even …
