Multi-indicator conductivity transfer functions for Quaternary palaeoclimate reconstruction (2012)
Journal Article
Reed, J. M., Griffiths, H. I., & Mesquita-Joanes, F. (2012). Multi-indicator conductivity transfer functions for Quaternary palaeoclimate reconstruction. Journal of paleolimnology, 47(2), 251-275. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10933-011-9574-1

Diatoms (Bacillariophyceae; single-celled algae) and ostracods (Ostracoda; shelled microcrustacea) are known for their sensitivity to salinity. In palaeolimnology, the potential has yet to be tested for quantifying past salinity, lake level, and by i...

Lake isotope records can be used to assess the spatial coherency of Late Quaternary climate change across the circum-Mediterranean region. We place modern and palaeo-data within a simple conceptual lake response model to show that the isotope hydrolo...
