Analyses of sedimentary DNA (sedDNA) have increased exponentially over the last decade
and hold great potential to study the effects of anthropogenic stressors on lake biota over …

Ancient environmental DNA (aeDNA) data are close to enabling insights into past global-
scale biodiversity dynamics at unprecedented taxonomic extent and resolution. However …

Environmental DNA is increasingly being used to reconstruct past and present biodiversity
including from freshwater ecosystems. Macrophytes are especially good environmental …

Alpine ecosystems on the Tibetan Plateau are being threatened by ongoing climate
warming and intensified human activities. Ecological time-series obtained from sedimentary …

Understanding the response of long-term aquatic environmental changes in lakes to
ongoing climate change and human activities is key to forecasting future lake conditions. In …

Glacier and permafrost shrinkage and land-use intensification threaten mountain wildlife
and affect nature conservation strategies. Here, we present paleometagenomic records of …

Abstract In Central Yakutia (Siberia) livelihoods of local communities depend on alaas
(thermokarst depression) landscapes and the lakes within. Development and dynamics of …

Covering 55% of Canada's total surface area and stretching from coast to coast to coast, the
Canadian boreal zone is crucial to the nation's economic and ecological integrity. Although …

Only a few palaeo-records extend beyond the Holocene in Yakutia, eastern Siberia, since
most of the lakes in the region are of Holocene thermokarst origin. Thus, we have a poor …

Current global warming results in rising sea-water temperatures, and the loss of sea ice in
Arctic and subarctic oceans impacts the community composition of primary producers with …
