Palaeoenvironmental and palaeoclimatic applications of fossil ostracods rely on a
uniformitarian approach underpinned by knowledge of the biology and ecology of living …

This third edition of Reconstructing Quaternary Environments has been completely revised
and updated to provide a new account of the history and scale of environmental changes …

Ostracod crustaceans are excellent Quaternary palaeoclimate proxies. As microfossils they
supply evidence of past climatic conditions via indicator species, transfer function and …

Ostracods are common lacustrine calcitic microfossils. Their faunal assemblage and
morphological characteristics are important ecological proxies, and their valves are archives …

Ostracoda, minute aquatic crustaceans with calcitic shells, are highly versatile proxies in
geoarchaeological contexts. Their species-specific ecological preferences and ranges allow …

Tangra Yumco, a large saline lake located in the central–southern part of the Tibetan
Plateau, lies in a hydrologically closed basin and is part of a cascade lake system including …

Community assembly (CA) is a topic of growing interest in ecology due to global change,
among other reasons. A review of the latter 20 years in plankton CA studies suggests some …

This study presents, for the first time, a detailed quantitative reconstruction of winter
(January) and summer (July) palaeotemperatures from the Late Pleistocene to Holocene …

ABSTRACT Ostracod assemblages from Lake Trasimeno (Umbria, central Italy), the largest
endorheic lake in Italy, were investigated relating their species distribution and ecology to …

Naturally time-averaged accumulations of skeletal remains—death assemblages—provide
reliable, albeit temporally coarse, information on the species composition and structure of …
