Sediments of two alpine lakes in Tatra Mts., Slovakia, record the environmental history of
their catchments from deglaciation in Late Glacial warming up to the Subboreal period. We …

Novel ecosystem development is occurring within the western boreal forest of Canada due
to land reclamation following oil sand surface mining. Sphagnum peat is the primary organic …

In response to the lack of studies focussing on the residence time of molecular biomarkers in
