Journal ArticleDOI
Are fossil assemblages in a single sediment core from a small lake representative of total deposition of mite, chironomid, and plant macrofossil remains?
Marianne Presthus Heggen,Marianne Presthus Heggen,Hilary H. Birks,Oliver Heiri,Oliver Heiri,John-Arvid Grytnes,H. John B. Birks,H. John B. Birks,H. John B. Birks +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used Principal Component Analysis (PCA) scores of the original data with those of Monte Carlo-simulated data sets, using the actual data as constraints in the simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Limnological and ecological sensitivity of Rwenzori mountain lakes to climate warming
Hilde Eggermont,Hilde Eggermont,Dirk Verschuren,Leen Audenaert,Luc Lens,James M. Russell,Gerrit Klaassen,Oliver Heiri +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the limnological and ecological sensitivity of high-ele- vation lakes in the Rwenzori Mountains (Uganda-D. R. Congo) to climate change by comparing the species assemblages of larval chiron- omid remains deposited recently in lake sediments with those deposited at the base of short cores.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biotic turnover rates during the Pleistocene-Holocene transition
Normunds Stivrins,Janne Soininen,Leeli Amon,Sonia L. Fontana,Gražyna Gryguc,Maija Heikkilä,Oliver Heiri,Dalia Kisielienė,Triin Reitalu,Miglė Stančikaitė,Siim Veski,Heikki Seppä +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the community turnover rates during the Pleistocene-Holocene transition (PHT) by focusing on the Baltic region in the southeastern sector of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet.
Journal ArticleDOI
An inter-regional assessment of concentrations and δ13C values of methane and dissolved inorganic carbon in small European lakes
Päivi Johanna Rinta,David Bastviken,Maarten van Hardenbroek,Maarten van Hardenbroek,Paula Kankaala,Markus Leuenberger,Jos Schilder,Tabea Stötter,Oliver Heiri +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied concentrations and stable carbon isotopic composition (δ13C) of CH4 and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) in 32 small lakes from Finland, Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland in late summer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stable isotopic analysis of fossil chironomids as an approach to environmental reconstruction: state of development and future challenges
TL;DR: Available ecosystem studies and developed down-core sediment records indicate that stable isotopes in chironomid remains have the potential to provide reconstructions of past climatic change and insights into past food web structure, methane production and pollution of lake ecosystems.
