Sea ice is a key factor for the functioning and services provided by polar marine ecosystems.
However, ecosystem responses to sea-ice loss are largely unknown because time-series …

Sedimentary ancient DNA (seda DNA) offers a novel retrospective approach to
reconstructing the history of marine ecosystems over geological timescales. Until now, the …

Polar ecosystems are experiencing amongst the most rapid rates of regional warming on
Earth. Here, we discuss 'omics' approaches to investigate polar biodiversity, including the …

Purpose Intact lake sediments reflect the development of terrestrial ecosystems. This
development can be understood by decoding mineral and geochemical information of …

Sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA) analysis is a promising new approach for
reconstructing the impact of past climate and environmental changes on marine …

With ongoing climate change, research into the biological changes occurring in particularly
vulnerable ecosystems, such as Antarctica, is critical. The Totten Glacier region, Sabrina …

Marine sediments as excellent climate archives, contain among other biomolecules
substantial amounts of extracellular DNA. Through mineral binding, some of the DNA …

Antarctica is one of the most susceptible regions to climate change on Earth. Rising ocean
temperatures, glacier melting, and disruptions of marine ecosystems make this polar region …

Marine protists are globally distributed and sensitive to environmental conditions, which
makes them a focal group when studying the effects of climate change on biodiversity and …

Diatom resting stages can remain viable in sediments for decades and germinate when
exposed to suitable environmental conditions, inoculating the water column and the surface …
