A continuous peat sequence collected in the Altai Mountains, Xinjiang Province,
northwestern China, provides a new opportunity to reconstruct the Holocene climate history …

Abstract During the Mesolithic in Europe, there is widespread evidence for an increase in
exploitation of aquatic resources. In contrast, the subsequent Neolithic is characterised by …

Sediment in lakes and meadows forms a powerful archive that can be used to reconstruct
environmental change through time. Reconstructions of lake level, of chemical, biological …

California has experienced a dry 21st century capped by severe drought from 2012 through
2015 prompting questions about hydroclimatic sensitivity to anthropogenic climate change …

Biodiversity commonly plays important roles in ecosystem functioning. While many studies
have tested effects of species diversity on productivity, carbon and nitrogen cycling and …

Abstract n-Alkanes have been widely used to reconstruct palaeoenvironmental variations in
lacustrine environments. However, for robust reconstructions, improving the understanding …

Lipid biomarkers and their pertinent indices have been used as the most effective proxies for
paleoclimate and paleoenvironment conditions. This paper conducts a systematic review on …

Abstract n-Alkanes are biomarkers that are widely used as paleoenvironmental
reconstruction proxies in lacustrine sediments. However, studies on their sedimentation and …

Reconstruction of lake-level fluctuations from landform and outcrop evidence typically
involves characterizing periods with relative high stands. We developed a new approach to …

Millennial-scale shifts in aridity patterns have been documented during the Holocene in the
western United States, yet the precise timing, severity, and regional extent of these shifts …
