Abstract Analysis of sediments deposited at different latitudes around the world during the
Palaeocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM;∼ 56 Ma) have revealed a globally …

Carbon isotopic composition of Sphagnum macrofossils can potentially be used as a
palaeohydrological tool for peat‐based climatic studies since a relationship between …

Lipid biomarkers extracted from a peat core obtained from the northeast edge of the Tibetan
Plateau have provided a 13 kyr record of regional climate change. A period of warmer …

The post-glacial variations in distributions and 13C contents for individual aliphatic
hydrocarbons and bulk organic matter down the profiles of three stratified organic upland …

n-Alkane distributions are frequently used as palaeoclimate proxies in ombrotrophic peat
deposits. Although n-alkane distributions differ strongly between plant species, n-alkanes …

5-n-Alkylresorcinols with alkyl chain lengths varying from C19 to C25 were identified solely
in bog-forming plant species classified as sedges (Eriophorum vaginatum, E. angustifolium …

Moss covered, high latitude wetlands hold large amounts of terrestrial organic matter (OM),
which may be vulnerable to expected climate warming. Molecular analysis of fluvially …

We have developed a new approach to quantitatively reconstruct past changes in
evaporation based on compound-specific hydrogen isotope ratios of vascular plant and …

Each plant species has a unique chemical composition, and also within a given plant the
various tissues differ from one another in their chemistry. These different compositions can …

Soluble and insoluble fractions of the Jet Rock sedimentary organic matter have been
subjected to hydropyrolysis to evaluate their biomarker content. Hydropyrolysis is the …
