Environmental change and atmospheric contamination on Svalbard: sediment chronology
Appleby, P. G. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2004)Sediment cores collected from eight lakes along the western coast of Svalbard as part of a project investigating atmospheric pollution and environmental change in Arctic regions were dated radiometrically using natural ... -
Lake-sediment evidence for local and remote sources of atmospherically deposited pollutants on Svalbard
Rose, Neil L.; Rose, C. L.; Boyle, John F.; Appleby, P. G. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2004)Twenty-one lakes along the west coast of Svalbard were cored between 28 July and 14 August 1995. Five cores were 210Pb dated and analysed for spheroidal carbonaceous particles (SCPs), indicators of deposition from fossil-fuel ... -
Palaeolimnological responses of nine North African lakes in the CASSARINA Project to recent environmental changes and human impact detected by plant macrofossil, pollen, and faunal analyses
Birks, Hilary H.; Peglar, Sylvia M.; Boomer, Ian; Flower, Roger J.; Ramdani, Mohammed; Appleby, P. G.; Bjune, Anne Elisabeth; Patrick, Simon T.; Kraïem, Mohammed M.; Fathi, Adel A.; Abdelzaher, H. M. A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2001)This paper presents multi-proxy palaeolimnological analyses from recent sediments in the nine CASSARINA lakes in northernmost Africa, three from each of Morocco, Tunisia, and Egypt. The lakes are diverse, ranging from ... -
Radiometrically determined dates and sedimentation rates for recent sediments in nine North African wetland lakes (the CASSARINA Project)
Appleby, P. G.; Birks, Hilary H.; Flower, Roger J.; Rose, Neil L.; Peglar, Sylvia M.; Ramdani, Mohammed; Kraïem, Mohammed M.; Fathi, Adel A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2001)Sediment cores were collected from nine wetland lakes in Morocco, Tunisia and Egypt for the CASSARINA project investigating environmental change in Northern African wetlands. The cores were dated radiometrically by using ... -
Recent environmental change and human impact on Svalbard: the lake-sediment geochemical record
Boyle, John F.; Rose, Neil L.; Appleby, P. G.; Birks, Harry John Betteley (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2004)As part of a broader investigation into recent environmental change on Svalbard, the inorganic geochemical record of six lake-sediment cores was analysed. The major temporal trends in sediment elemental composition are ... -
Terrestrial pollen record of recent land-use changes around nine North African lakes in the CASSARINA Project
Birks, Hilary H.; Birks, Harry John Betteley; Appleby, P. G.; Fathi, Adel A.; Flower, Roger J.; Kraïem, Mohammed M.; Patrick, Simon T.; Ramdani, Mohammed (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2001)Pollen analyses and related plant macrofossil records are presented from short cores from nine North African lakes in the EU-funded CASSARINA project. Terrestrial pollen reflects human impact on the vegetation and landscape ...
