Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

Boreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

Germination Potential of Six Native Plant Species for Phytoremediation of Hydrocarbon Contaminated Peat Soils

Seeds
Research on the remediation of hydrocarbon contaminated peatlands is limited; in particular, hydrocarbon effects on seed germination is critical for effective reclamation.

Environmental dynamics and timing of the late Eemian interglacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial at Lichtenberg, Germany: implications for the Oerel and Glinde interstadials

Boreas, EarlyView.
The terrestrial sediment archives of northern Germany provide important insights into Late Pleistocene climate variability, but continuous and well‐dated records remain rare. In particular, the age and stratigraphic position of the Oerel and Glinde interstadials within the Early Weichselian to pleniglacial transition remain poorly constrained.

Modern pollen rain of an upland area: implications of pollen dispersal for interpreting palaeoenvironmental records

Boreas, EarlyView.
A long‐term perspective on landscape evolution is critical for understanding past land‐use activity, land cover–climate feedbacks and, notably, for establishing a factual basis for conservation. Fossil pollen analysis provides a means to achieve this. Biases pertaining to pollen productivity, pollination processes and basin size, however, mean there is

Peatlands naturally function as water storage, water supply, and water controller. However, if they are not managed properly, this can cause changes in the water system or hydrology, especially fluctuations in groundwater levels.

Global biomarker (GDGT) database for peatlands

, 2017
This is the biomarker (GDGT) data measured in a global set of peatlands. One dataset provides the average per peatland. The second dataset (individual peats) contains the data for each individual sample as for many peatlands we analyzed more than one ...

Ecological variability of Hippopotamus antiquus from the late Early–Middle Pleistocene of Megalopolis Basin (Greece): Evidence for dynamic habitats in a glacial microrefugium

Boreas, EarlyView.
This study investigates the ecology of the extinct European Hippopotamus from the late Early–Middle Pleistocene (c. 900–400 ka) sequence of the Megalopolis Basin, a glacial microrefugium for temperate taxa in southern Greece. Using stable carbon (δ13C) and oxygen (δ18O) isotope analyses and microwear analyses of Hippopotamus dental elements, we ...

Towards climate-responsible peatlands management

, 2014
Peatlands are lands with a naturally accumulated peat layer at their surface. In their natural state, peatlands support a large range of habitats and provide a home for unique biodiversity.

Codesigning synergies among ecological, social, and economic benefits with landscape‐scale agri‐environmental schemes

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Global farmland biodiversity is declining rapidly, threatening both natural ecosystems and agricultural production. Although agri‐environmental schemes incentivize farmers to adopt environmentally friendly measures, the spatial mismatch between their local implementation and the landscape‐scale habitat requirements of farmland species has been

Population dynamics and reproductive success of Short‐eared Owls in relation to widely fluctuating food abundance and farmland habitat degradation

Ibis, EarlyView.
Populations of the Short‐eared Owl Asio flammeus have declined across Europe and North America, probably in response to habitat degradation driven by agricultural intensification. However, long‐term evidence linking farmland habitat change to variation in breeding density and reproductive success remains limited.
