"Two tribes": Handaxe shape variation shows distinct regional cultural groups in southeastern Britain between 424 000 and 374 000 BP

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines regional and chronological variations in Acheulean handaxe morphology during Marine Isotope Stage 11 (c. 425–365 ka BP) in Britain. Using a data set of 737 handaxes from 13 securely dated sites in East Anglia and the Thames Valley, we apply three‐dimensional geometric morphometric analysis to examine morphological ...

Phosphorus flux by macrobenthic invertebrates in a shallow eutrophic lake Donghu: spatial change

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2011
We estimated phosphorus flux mediated by benthic invertebrates from the sediments to the water in a shallow eutrophic lake (lake Donghu, central China) and quantified spatial (littoral and central sites) and specific (among different ...

Decoupling climate and human impacts on the nitrogen cycle during the Irish Bronze Age

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disentangling climate variability and human activity in past nitrogen cycling is key to understanding ecosystems. Previous studies in Ireland observed a widespread, permanent shift in terrestrial nitrogen cycling during Later Prehistory, potentially linked to intensifying land‐use.

Planktonic Respiration in a Shallow Eutrophic Lake

open access: yesJournal of Freshwater Ecology, 2006
ABSTRACT We studied the relationships between planktonic respiration and key physicochemical parameters and total autochthonous biomass for three years in Lake Pamvotis, a shallow and eutrophic Greek lake. Planktonic community respiration was correlated with only one environmental parameter, dissolved inorganic nitrogen concentration, which appeared to

Invertebrate communities in northern Lake Victoria, with reference to their potential for fishery production [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The zooplankton and macrobenthic communities of Lake Victoria were sampled by lift net and Ponar grab, respectively. The zooplankton comprised copepods and cladocerans, rotifers and aquatic insect larvae. Most taxa exhibited wide distribution in the lake,

The Glacial Legacy of the Geneva Basin: Morphology and implications of an intricate tunnel valley system revealed from 3D seismic data

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Like other perialpine basins and glaciated margins, the Geneva Basin in SW Switzerland is characterised by buried tunnel valleys, which are elongated incisions widely attributed to subglacial meltwater erosion beneath continental ice sheets. However, an inclusive understanding of the geological control on the evolution of the glacial landscape

Spatial heterogeneity of food web structure in a large shallow eutrophic lake (Lake Taihu, China): implications for eutrophication process and management

open access: yesJournal of Freshwater Ecology, 2019
The knowledge of food web spatial heterogeneity is important for ecologists and lake managers to understand ecosystem complexity and lake management.

Wind-driven currents in a shallow lake or sea [PDF]

open access: yes
For shallow lakes and seas such as the great lakes (especially Lake Erie) where the depth is not much greater than the Ekman depth, the usual Ekman dynamics cannot be used to predict the wind driven currents.

Sediment phosphorus flux in Beaver Lake in Northwest Arkansas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Internal phosphorus (P) loading may influence primary production in lakes, but the influence of sediment-derived P has not been well studied in Beaver Lake of Northwest Arkansas.

Aquatic and Littoral Successions in Various Post‐Mining Sites—Patterns and Possible Use in Ecological Restoration

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vegetation succession in aquatic and littoral habitats has received much less attention than terrestrial habitats have. We sampled differently aged successional stages at five different types of post‐mining sites, that is, sandpits, stone quarries, clay quarries, brown coal spoil heaps and black coal subsidences, across the Czech Republic ...
