Lacustrine sedimentary organic matter records of Late Quaternary paleoclimates
Identification of the sources of organic matter in sedimentary records provides important paleolimnologic information. As the types and abundances of plant life in and around lakes change, the composition and amount of organic matter delivered to lake sediments changes. Despite the extensive early diagenetic losses of organic matter in general and of some of its important biomarker compounds in...
متن کاملThe Learn@WU Learning Environment1
This paper is an experience report describing the Learn@WU learning environment, which to our knowledge is one of the largest operational learning environments in higher education. The platform, which is entirely based on open source components, enjoys heavy usage by about 4,000 WU freshmen each year. At present, the learning environment supports 18 high-enrollment courses and contains more tha...
متن کاملPatchiness and spatial structure of the early developmental stages of clupeiforms in the NW Mediterranean sea
We analyse the spatial structure of early developmental stages of three ecologically important small pelagic schooling species in the northwestern Mediterranean sea: the anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus, the round sardinella Sardinella aurita, and the sardine Sardina pilchardus. We used data on egg and larval abundance (arranged by development stage), hydrographic data and potential prey biomass ...
متن کاملPattern formation in sedimentary rocks: Connectivity, permeability, and spatial correlations
Sedimentary rocks have complicated permeability patterns arising from the geological processes that formed them. We concentrate on pattern formation in one particular geological process, avalanches (grain flow) in wind-blown or fluvial sands. We present a simple experiment and numerical model of how these avalanches cause segregation in particle size that lead to characteristic laminated patter...
متن کاملLipid Biomarkers in Lacustrine Sedimentary Archives – An Inventory and Evaluation as Proxies for Environmental and Climatic Change
With the growing understanding of human influence on the Earth system, an increasing number of scientific investigations focuses on vegetation responses to changing environmental and/ or climatic conditions. A detailed prediction, how e.g. increasing atmospheric temperatures affect the composition of terrestrial and aquatic vegetation composition, however, remains difficult without a detailed k...
