Palaeoclimate interpretation of stable isotope data from lake sediment archives

TL;DR: A review of the controls on the isotope composition of lacustrine skeletal and non-skeletal deposits and how stable isotope studies contribute to an understanding of changes in temperature, precipitation patterns, evaporation and the carbon cycle can be found in this article.

Methods for measuring denitrification: diverse approaches to a difficult problem

TL;DR: Comparison of mass balance and stoichiometric approaches that constrain estimates of denitrification at large scales with point measurements (made using multiple methods), in multiple systems, is likely to propel more improvement in Denitrification methods over the next few years.

Quantitative paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic reconstruction using paleosols

TL;DR: Paleosols (fossil soils) are preserved throughout the geologic record in depositional settings ranging from alluvial systems to between basalt flows as mentioned in this paper, and a variety of semi-quantitative and quantitative tools have been developed to examine past weathering and pedogenesis, and to reconstruct both paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic conditions at the time that the paleosols formed.
