TL;DR: In this paper, deep-water sediment cores from 32 Scandinavian and 19 northern New England, U.S.A., lakes were analyzed for 137Cs; 210Pb was analyzed in cores from 16 and 14 of these lakes, respectively.

Stratigraphic effects of tubificids in profundal lake sediments1
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted experiments with natural mixed populations of 800 and 1,800 tubificids m−2 in sediment from Messalonskee Lake, Maine, showed average sediment transport by alimentation at 10°C 2-3 times greater than highest rates previously reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
The contemporary distribution of pollen in eastern North America: A comparison with the vegetation
Ronald B. Davis,Thompson Webb +1 more
TL;DR: By mapping and summarizing 478 pollen counts from surface samples at 406 locations in eastern North America, the authors documents the relationships between the distributions of pollen and vegetation on a continental scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late glacial and early Holocene Landscapes in northern New England and adjacent areas of Canada
TL;DR: The earliest spread of tree taxa was via the lowlands of southern Vermont and New Hampshire, and along a coastal corridor in Maine, and only after 12,000 yr B.P. did the taxa spread northward through the rest of the area as discussed by the authors.
