Biostratigraphy and palaeolimnology of late-glacial and holocene lake marls at Quidenham Mere, Norfolk.
… to a more meaningful understanding of the palaeolimnology of the Mere. The poor correlation (r < 0.7) between the 8180 and 813C values indicate that the Mere has been hydrologically open throughout its history. Obtaining a chronology from the lake sediments at Quidenham Mere has proved to …

Past and present benthic fauna of Lake Maratoto with special reference to the chironomidae
The benthic fauna of Lake Maratoto, a eutrophic dy (dystrophic) lake in the Waikato basin, was investigated from 19/9/78 to 13/3/80. Core samples were taken at approximately fortnightly intervals from six stations of varying depths. Fifty taxa were recognised and the distribution and seasonal …

Aquatic macrophyte-derived biomarkers as palaeolimnological proxies on the Tibetan Plateau
The Tibetan Plateau is the largest elevated landmass in the world and profoundly influences atmospheric circulation patterns such as the Asian monsoon system. Therefore this area has been increasingly in focus of palaeoenvironmental studies. This thesis evaluates the applicability of organic …

The palaeolimnological record of regime shifts in lakes in response to climate change
Regime shifts in lake ecosystems can occur in response to both abrupt and continuous climate change, and the imprints they leave in palaeolimnological records allow us to investigate and better understand patterns and processes governing ecological changes on geological time scales. This thesis …
