Studies on long‐chain n‐alkan‐2‐ones from lake sediments remain sparse. In this study, we
present an n‐alkan‐2‐one record from Qionghai Lake, southwest China, to assess the …

n-Alkanes are one of the most used proxies in lake sediments to reconstruct past climate
change. However, the distribution and concentration of n-alkanes are controlled by multiple …

This study examines n-alkane distributions from a 120 m long borehole extracted from
Palaeolake Tianyang, South China, which covers the last five glacial cycles. We aim to …

Annually laminated sediments in Lake Xiaolongwan, northeast China, contain a suite of n-
alkanes (C 17–C 33) with a strong odd over even carbon number predominance. Biomarker …

It has been generally accepted that long-chain n-alkanes found in lacustrine sequences are
mainly derived from terrestrial plants, which is the basis for tracking paleoenvironmental …

Abstract Long-chain n-alkane-2-ones occur widely in lacustrine and peat depositional
settings; however, their paleobotanical and paleoclimate implications are less understood …

Abstract The Altai Mountains are located at the junction of Asia and Europe. It is far away
from oceans, and typical temperate continental climate. Moisture sources are mainly from …

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to identify a series of n-alkanes in the
sediments of a typical glacially eroded lake in the eastern Tibetan Plateau. By comparing the …

Abstract Arxan Crater Lake (ACL17C: 47.32 N, 120.41 E; 1280m asl) is one of the closed
volcanic crater lakes at the Arxan-Chaihe volcanic field in the middle of Great Khingan …

Long-chain n-alkanes and alkenones were analyzed in sediments from Dabusu Lake,
northeastern China, from ca. 7.2–4.5 kyr BP (the Holocene Optimum) and the present. Long …
