Branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) preserved in lake sediments are
increasingly used to investigate past terrestrial temperatures. brGDGTs are ubiquitous in …

Paleoelevation reconstructions of the Himalayan mountains and Tibetan Plateau have been
a focus of geoscientists, as they can improve our understanding of the temporal evolution of …

Microbial lipid biomarkers preserved in geological archives can be used to explore past
climate changes. Branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) are unique …

Branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) are emerging as a powerful tool for

Societal Impact Statement Madagascar is famous for its unique forests and their fauna. Most
of the island is covered by flammable grassy ecosystems long considered to be of human …

Abstract The Selenga River basin, located in southern Siberia, is an important component of
the Lake Baikal ecosystem, and comprises approximately 80% of the Baikal watershed …

Abstract Knowledge of hydrogen isotopic fractionation (ε) of plant leaf waxes is the
foundation for applying hydrogen isotope values (δ 2 H) in environmental reconstructions. In …

To reconstruct past environmental changes, a range of indirect or proxy approaches can be
applied to Quaternary archives. Here, we review the complementary and novel insights that …

Sedimentary plant wax δ2H values are common proxies for hydrology, a poorly constrained
variable in the Arctic. However, it can be difficult to distinguish plant waxes derived from …

The distribution of brGDGT lipids produced by soil bacteria has been used to reconstruct
temperatures in marine and terrestrial settings as far back as the Cretaceous period …
