Diatom silica (frustules) are a form of biogenic opal and contain oxygen isotopes that are
being increasingly used in palaeoclimate studies. Frustules are comprised of an inner …

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 …

Understanding long-term dynamics is vitally important for explaining current biodiversity
patterns and setting conservation goals in a changing world. However, the changes in …

Palaeolimnological data and limnological time‐series data are highly complementary.
Sediment records extend time‐scales, integrate subannual variability and expand the range …

The Roman Period is considered a crucial phase in the evolution of Holocene landscapes,
due to the coincidence of major climatic, environmental, economic and cultural changes …

Analysis of sedimentary diatom assemblages (10 to 144ka) form the basis for a detailed
reconstruction of the paleohydrography and diatom paleoecology of Lake Malawi. Lake …

A better understanding of the organic matter (OM) dynamics is a key to successful wetland
management. We established the radiocarbon chronology (14C) and vertical distribution of …

The internal cycles of carbon, silica, nitrogen, and phosphorus in the South and North
Basins of Lake Baikal were quantified in the frame of a multidisciplinary collaboration …

Both the number and diversity of studies of Holocene climate variability have expanded
dramatically over the last decade, as new regions around the world are investigated, new …

Natural floodplains play an essential role in the processing and decomposition of organic
matter and in the self-purification ability of rivers, largely due to the activity of bacteria …
