Wildfires affect 40% of the earth's terrestrial biome, but much of our knowledge of wildfire
activity is limited to the satellite era. Improved understanding of past fires is necessary to …

This study responds to the critical challenge of addressing heavy metal pollution and its
impacts on soil carbon storage associated with rocky desertification, especially in karst …

Stalagmites are considered natural archives of climate proxies. However, under the
combined effects of atmospheric circulation patterns, precipitation, and karst environments …

Speleothem records of past environmental change provide an important opportunity to
explore fire frequency and intensity in the past, and the antecedent climatic conditions …

This study provides the example of Golgotha Cave, in the south west of Western Australia,
where previous long-term hydrological, geochemical and climate monitoring resulted in a …

The last two decades have seen a considerable increase in studies using speleothems as
archives of past climate variability. Caves under study are now monitored for a wide range of …

Cave-monitoring studies clarify the climatic, surface vegetation, and karst processes
affecting the cave system and lay the foundation for interpreting geochemical stalagmite …

Speleothems may preserve geochemical information at annual resolution, preserving
information about past hydrology, environment and climate. In this study, we advance …

Speleothems (cave deposits), used for palaeoenvironmental reconstructions, are deposited
from cave drip water. Differentiating climate and karst processes within a drip-water signal is …

Carbonate-associated sulphate (CAS) is a useful carrier of palaeoenvironmental information
throughout the geologic record, particularly through its stable isotope composition. However …
