Stable isotope analysis is a powerful tool for assessing plant carbon and water relations and
their impact on biogeochemical processes at different scales. Our process-based …

Sphagnum peatlands in the oceanic-continental transition zone of Poland are currently
influenced by climatic and anthropogenic factors that lead to peat desiccation and …

The use of testate amoebae in studies of peatland hydrology and palaeohydrology has been
increasing, and considerable efforts have been made over the past decade to standardise …

In this study, we present a record spanning the last 4000 years from a Baltic bog (Kusowskie
Bagno) in northern Poland. Using numerous biotic and abiotic proxies, such as testate …

Proxy-based reconstructions of climate variability over the last millennium provide important
insights for understanding current climate change within a long-term context. Past …

Holocene climatic variability and human impact on vegetation are reconstructed from a
region in central European Russia, which lies at an important ecotone between broadleaf …

Species' functional traits are closely related to ecosystem processes through evolutionary
adaptation, and are thus directly connected to environmental changes. Species' traits are not …

We present the results of high-resolution, multi-proxy palaeoecological investigations of two
parallel peat cores from the Baltic raised bog Mechacz Wielki in NE Poland. We aim to …

Evidence for a major climate event at 5.2 ka has been reported globally and is associated
with considerable societal disruption, but is poorly characterised in northwest Europe. This …

The Archaeology of the Prussian Crusade explores the archaeology and material culture of
the crusades against the Prussian tribes in the 13th century, and the resulting society …
