Assemblages of ostracodes from sediment cores illuminate lake-level history at decadal to
centennial timescales during the late Holocene at Lake Tanganyika, East Africa. The …

Paleorecords from multiple indicators of environmental change provide evidence for the
interactions between climate, human alteration of watersheds and lake ecosystem …

Population growth and watershed deforestation in northwestern Tanzania threaten the
biodiversity of Lake Tanganyika through erosion and habitat degradation. We used cores …

High-resolution (annual to decadal) paleoecological records of community composition can
contribute a long-term perspective to conservation biology on baseline ecological variability …

Evaporation dominates the removal of water from Lake Tanganyika, and therefore the
oxygen isotope composition of lake water has become very positive in comparison to the …

Nonmarine ostracodes are often used as proxy indicators for the biotic response to climate
as well as anthropogenic changes in large lakes. Their large numbers, small size and …

Fossil invertebrates from cores collected in Lake Tanganyika provide a record of probable
nearshore ecological response to recent watershed deforestation and sediment erosion in …

We established sediment geochronologies for cores from eight deltaic areas in Lake
Tanganyika (the Lubulungu, Kabesi, Halembe, Malagarasi, Nyasanga/Kahama …

Lake faunal diversity has been the focus of many modern studies; however, there have been
few studies comparing the lacustrine diversity in the modern and fossil record. Whether or …

We investigated paleolimnological records from a series of river deltas around the
northeastern rim of Lake Tanganyika, East Africa (Tanzania and Burundi) in order to …
