Paleomagnetic dating of climatic events in Late Quaternary sediments of Lake Baikal (Siberia)
Der Baikalsee ist ein ideales Klimaarchiv für die Mitte Eurasiens. In dieser Arbeit wurde gesteinsmagnetische und paleomagnetische Analysen an hemipelagischen Sequenzen von vier Lokationen analysiert. Die Kerne erreichen ein Alter von maximal 300 ky. In Kombination mit TEM, XRD, XRF und …

Qualitative and quantitative analyses of Lake Baikal's surface-waters using ocean colour satellite data (SeaWiFS)
… seasonal information about the surface waters of Lake Baikal (Siberia). While discrete limnological field data is available, the spatial extension of Lake Baikal is enormous (ca. 600 km), while the field data are limited to selected sites and expedition time windows. Therefore, this remote-sensing …

An Ancient Genomic Perspective of Kinship, Disease and Environment
… considering mid-Holocene hunter-gatherers at Lake Baikal 8000-3000 years ago. Following an Introduction, the second thesis chapter presents a detailed discussion of the progress, current state and future potential of biomolecular archaeology (now a volume chapter in the Oxford Handbooks …

Isotopic, geochemical, and geochronological constraints on the origin and evolution of Cenozoic volcanism, Baikal Rift Zone, Siberia
The Cenozoic Baikal Rift Zone, one of the world's major continental rifts, is expressed as an approximately 1800 km-long southwest-northeast oriented system situated along a suture between the Archean Siberian craton and younger Paleozoic fold belts. Oligocene to Recent age volcanic rocks and …

Changes in the microbial community of Lubomirskia baicalensis affected by Red Sponge Disease
<p>Lake Baikal is the oldest known lake and a unique ecosystem, home to several species of fresh water sponge. A disease outbreak affecting the dominant species, Lubormirskia baialensis, was recently reported. The cause of the disease has not been determined but one of the current hypothesis is …

The Relationship Between Intraplate Earthquakes and Temperature
… begin, the properties of the lithosphere in the Lake Baikal region are examined in a multidisciplinary study incorporating observations of seismicity, gravity anomalies, topography, and seismic velocity and thermal structures. Teleseismic waveform-modelling is used to constrain the focal depths …

Advanced methods for analysing and modelling multivariate palaeoclimatic time series
… sequence of grain-size distributions obtained in Lake Baikal reveals that there are certain problems accompanying the application of finite mixture models, which cause an extended climatological interpretation of the results to fail. As an appropriate alternative, a linear principal component …

Comparative analysis of meiobenthic diversity across habitats in ancient lakes
Freshwater ecosystems, including rivers, lakes, wetlands, and streams, serve as critical biodiversity reservoirs, supporting a diverse array of ecological functions and community structures. Lake ecosystems, in particular, exhibit a high degree of species richness and ecological complexity. Ancient …

A Multi-Method Approach to Re-associating Fragmented and Commingled Human Remains
… (as cited by Glencross, 2014). As a part of the Baikal Archaeology Project, this thesis seeks to extend and develop existing bioarchaeological, forensic anthropological, and zooarchaeological methods to identify discrete individuals from the destroyed remains from the Early Neolithic cemetery …
