Event deposits in lake sediments provide invaluable chronicles of geodynamic and climatic
natural hazards on multi-millennial timescales. Sediment archives are particularly useful for …

Radiocarbon dated chronologies are the most extensively applied dating technique when
investigating the last∼ 45,000 years. In lake and marine sediments, a single macrofossil or …

Turbidite records along ocean margins and in lake basins are increasingly used as
paleoseismic proxies. However, the slope remobilization processes that formed the …

Abstract The Southern and Austral Volcanic Zones of the Andes comprise 74 volcanic
centres with known post-glacial activity. At least 21 of these have had one or more large …

The strength of the Indian summer monsoon varied significantly on centennial-to millennial
timescales during the Holocene. Among these variations, a weak summer monsoon event …

Radiocarbon dating has played a pivotal role in paleoclimate research, particularly in
establishing chronological sequences for lake sediment. However, the persistent challenge …

Well-characterised tephra horizons deposited in various sedimentary environments provide
a means of synchronising sedimentary archives. The use of tephra as a chronological tool is …

Mining causes extensive damage to aquatic ecosystems via acidification, heavy metal
pollution, sediment loading, and Ca decline. Yet little is known about the effects of mining on …

Even though Patagonia is ideally located to study climate of the southern mid-latitudes,
many questions on the late Quaternary climate evolution remain unresolved. The timing of …

Inorganic carbonates are often used to establish radiocarbon (14 C) chronologies for lake
sediments when terrestrial plant remains (TPR) are rare or when bulk organic matter is …
