Holocene environmental evolution of the Pinqing Lagoon: insights from multiproxy sediment analysis
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic SciencesTo address the environmental changes in the South China coastal region and to investigate the interplay among sea-level fluctuations, monsoon variability, and sediment dynamics, a sediment core from the Pinqing Lagoon was extracted, covering the last 8.5

A Chinese cave links climate change, social impacts, and human adaptation over the last 500 years. [PDF]
, 2015 The collapse of some pre-historical and historical cultures, including Chinese dynasties were presumably linked to widespread droughts, on the basis of synchronicities of societal crises and proxy-based climate events.

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2025.Abstract This study examines sediment core ARA10C‐St16 from the East Siberian Shelf margin, which preserves a high‐resolution sedimentary record since Marine Isotope Stage 4 (MIS 4), and divides the core into five stratigraphic units. Mineralogical and geochemical proxies reveal that Unit 5, corresponding to the glacial period of MIS 4, shows ...

An empirical method to predict sediment grain size from inorganic geochemical measurements
, 2019 Grain size is one of the most fundamental properties of sediments. It is frequently used in paleoclimate, paleoceanographic, and paleoenvironmental research as a proxy for river discharge, current and wind strength, and to identify mass flow deposits ...

Contemporary carbon fluxes do not reflect the long-term carbon balance for an Atlantic blanket bog [PDF]
, 2017 Peatlands are one of the largest terrestrial stores of carbon. Carbon exchange in peatlands is often assessed solely by measurement of contemporary fluxes; however, these fluxes frequently indicate a much stronger sink strength than that measured by the ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 459-480, April 2025.ABSTRACT The Lake Volvi area, part of the region of Macedonia (northern Greece), is a biodiversity hotspot, located in the central part of a major communication corridor connecting the western and eastern parts of the Balkans. The sediment succession from Lake Volvi is investigated here to provide a unique high‐resolution pollen and geochemical record ...

Correlating microbial community profiles with geochemical data in highly stratified sediments from the Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge [PDF]
, 2012 Microbial communities and their associated metabolic activity in marine sediments have a profound impact on global biogeochemical cycles. Their composition and structure are attributed to geochemical and physical factors, but finding direct correlations ...
