Testate amoebae (also referred to as rhizopods, thecamoebians and arcellaceans) are
single-celled organisms in which the cytoplasm is enclosed within an external shell (the …

The use of testate amoebae in studies of peatland hydrology and palaeohydrology has been
increasing, and considerable efforts have been made over the past decade to standardise …

The number and range of Holocene palaeoclimate reconstructions from various regions of
the world have increased dramatically over the last decade. The data density for many …

Changes in surface wetness on Holocene ombrotrophic mires have principally been
estimated from plant macrofossils and humification. Testate amoebae (Protozoa …

Proxy climate data can be obtained from reconstructions of hydrological changes on
ombrotrophic (rain‐fed) peatlands using biological indicators, such as testate amoebae …

Peatland‐inhabiting testate amoebae are sensitive indicators of substrate‐moisture
conditions and have increasingly been used in palaeohydrological studies. However, to …

Peatland testate amoebae are sensitive indicators of local hydrology and have been used
as proxies for surface moisture conditions in fossil studies. However, few regional calibration …

The palaeoclimatic record for the past 6000 years, implemented from peat-bog stratigraphy,
has been limited by imprecision in dating and climatic interpretation. Recently, dating …

The stratigraphy of four peat sequences collected in two peat bogs located in the Eastmain
