ABSTRACT In‐depth ichnological and sedimentological analyses of the Cenomanian–Turonian boundary Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE2) from the Western Interior Seaway of west‐central Alberta reveal a persistent physico‐chemically stressed setting. The interval is characterised by a dominantly diminutive and diminished ichnological assemblage, with familiar ...

Late glacial multiproxy evidence of vegetation development and environmental change at Solova, southeastern Estonia [PDF]
Reinvestigation of the late glacial Solova (Remmeski) basin, based on plant macrofossil and diatom record, AMS 14C chronology and sediment composition (loss-on-ignition and magnetic susceptibility data), provided information on vegetation history and ...

Palaeoecological and possible evolutionary effects of early Namurian (Serpukhovian, Carboniferous) glacioeustatic cyclicity [PDF]
Early Namurian (Serpukhovian, Carboniferous), sedimentary cycles in the Throckley and Rowlands Gill boreholes, near Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, consist of fossiliferous limestones overlain by (usually unfossiliferous) black mudstone, followed by sandstones ...

ABSTRACT Modern studies show that soil erosion results in a loss of ecosystem function, particularly fertility, and is a cause of declining agricultural yields. However, despite the well‐attested high rates of soil erosion across Roman and medieval Europe there appears to have been little or no soil‐associated decline in agricultural production—the ...

An early Little Ice Age brackish water invasion along the south coast of the Caspian Sea (sediment of Langarud wetland) and its wider impacts on environment and people [PDF]
Caspian Sea level has undergone significant changes through time with major impacts not only on the surrounding coasts, but also offshore. This study reports a brackish water invasion on the southern coast of the Caspian Sea constructed from a multi ...

Abstract The Strathpeffer–Struie Lower Devonian LORS (Lower Old Red Sandstone) deposits of the Northern Highlands of Scotland contain the decidedly unusual ‘foetid beds’. These are interpreted as being deposited in a highly saline sulphate lake and associated playa mudflat, which developed in an intermontane basin in the Caledonian Mountains of ...

Some peatlands in Central Europe serve as continuous refugia for glacial species, as shown by paleoecological data. However, the ecosystem mechanisms behind this are not well understood. Microclimate plays a key role, and understanding the factors shaping it is crucial for managing peatlands as climate‐change refugia.
