Calendar-dated glacier variations in the western European Alps during the Neoglacial: the Mer de Glace record, Mont Blanc massif
Holocene glacier records from the western European Alps are still sparse, although a
number of sites are well suited to constraining pre-and early-Little Ice Age (LIA) glacier …

Erosion under climate and human pressures: An alpine lake sediment perspective
We review the scientific efforts over the last decades to reconstruct erosion from continuous
alpine lake sediment records. We focused both on methodological issues, showing the …

Past environmental changes affected lemur population dynamics prior to human impact in Madagascar
Quaternary climatic changes have been invoked as important drivers of species
diversification worldwide. However, the impact of such changes on vegetation and animal …

[HTML][HTML] Reconstruction of glacier variability from lake sediments reveals dynamic Holocene climate in Svalbard
The Arctic is warming faster than anywhere else on Earth. Holocene proxy time-series are
increasingly used to put this amplified response in perspective by understanding Arctic …

Human-triggered magnification of erosion rates in European Alps since the Bronze Age
A major feature of the Anthropocene is the drastic increase in global soil erosion. Soil
erosion is threatening Earth habitability not only as soils are an essential component of the …

The legacy of metallurgical atmospheric contamination in a mountainous catchment: A delayed response of Pb contamination
Metal-rich fumes emitted during ore smelting contribute to widespread anthropogenic
contamination. Environmental archives (such as lake sediments) record fallouts deposited …
