Sediment biomarkers elucidate the Holocene ontogeny of a shallow lake
We carried out geochemical analyses on a sediment core from Lake Harris, Florida (USA) to identify sources of organic matter to the sediment throughout the Holocene, and relate changes in those sources to shifts in past climate and environmental conditions. We hypothesized that the sources of organic matter changed in response to regional hydrologic shifts following de-glaciation, and to human ...
متن کاملA Holocene Sediment Record of Phosphorus Accumulation in Shallow Lake Harris, Florida (USA) Offers New Perspectives on Recent Cultural Eutrophication
We studied a complete Holocene sediment record from shallow (zmax = 9.7 m) Lake Harris, Florida (USA) to infer the historical development of the lake and its current eutrophic status. We used (210)Pb and (14)C to date the 5.9-m sediment sequence (core LH-6-13) and determined accumulation rates for bulk sediment, organic matter, calcium carbonate, phosphorus fractions and biogenic silica fractio...
متن کاملInteractions between sediment resuspension and sediment quality decrease the TN : TP ratio in a shallow lake
The relative contributions of sediment resuspension and external nutrient loading to seasonal fluctuations of the total nitrogen to total phosphorus (TN : TP) ratio in the water column of the shallow Kirkkojärvi basin were studied. In May, the TN : TP mass ratio was above 30, but it decreased to below 10 in July–August. In October, the ratio increased again. Water quality was regulated by exter...
متن کاملBiogeochemical evidence for hydrologic changes during the Holocene in a lake sediment record from
Holocene paleoclimate records from Greenland help us understand the response of the Greenland Ice Sheet and regional oceanic and atmospheric circulation systems to natural climate variability in order to place recent changes in a longer-term perspective. Here biogeochemical analysis of a lake sediment core from southeast Greenland is used to define changes in moisture balance and runoff during ...
متن کاملHolocene development and anthropogenic disturbance of a shallow lake system in Central Ireland recorded by diatoms
Three cores from two connected lakes in Central Ireland (Lough Kinale and Derragh Lough) were investigated using diatom analysis to establish the Holocene development of the lacustrine system, any local variations within the lakes and any anthropogenic influences. The study area was situated in a lowland location and the lakes were shallow, unstratified and interconnected. Litho-and bio-stratig...
