Environmental DNA studies have proliferated over the last decade, with promising data
describing the diversity of organisms inhabiting aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. The …

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 …

Plant-macrofossil analysis is being increasingly used in Quaternary science, particularly
palaeoecology and vegetation history. Although the techniques of macrofossil analysis are …

Submerged macrophyte and phytoplankton components of eutrophic, shallow lakes have
frequently undergone dynamic changes in composition and abundance with important …

Plant macrofossil analysis is being increasingly used in Quaternary science. Quantitative
palaeoecological macrofossil analysis was developed by WA Watts in the United States …

Modern pollen samples provide an invaluable research tool for helping to interpret the
quaternary fossil pollen record, allowing investigation of the relationship between pollen as …

Eutrophication is perhaps the most pervasive form of pollution. Here we first review its effects
on lake ecosystems based largely on modern ecological investigation. The longer time scale …

To correctly interpret chironomid faunas for palaeoenvironmental reconstruction, it is
essential that we improve our understanding of the relative influence of ecosystem variables …

Despite extensive paleoecological analyses of spatial and temporal turnover in species
composition, the fidelity with which time-averaged death assemblages capture variation in …

Reliable information on past and present vegetation is important to project future changes,
especially for rapidly transitioning areas such as the boreal treeline. To study past …
