Persistence of a wind-driven fire regime in Mediterranean France over the past 8200 years revealed by a marine paleoecological record
Data on paleofire activity in southeastern France during the Holocene are still lacking thus limiting our capability to anticipate fire regime shifts under climate change. Here, we present a 8.2 ky-long high-resolution time-series of microscopic charcoal (microcharcoal) particles from a marine sediment core retrieved from the Rhone prodelta, in the Gulf of Lions (NW Mediterranean Sea). Fire frequency, episodes, size and types of burnt vegetation …

Great Plains vegetation dynamics in response to fire and climatic fluctuations during the Holocene at Fox Lake, Minnesota (USA)
Vegetation composition and fire frequency are tightly linked in North American grasslands and have varied considerably throughout the Holocene in response to different drivers. Yet, detailed records of both long-term changes in grassland vegetation composition and diversity, coupled with fire history, are still relatively sparse. In this study, we examine a sediment core from Fox Lake, Minnesota, using pollen, charcoal, magnetic susceptibility, o…
Estimating phytolith influx in lake sediments
So far, no phytolith extraction protocols have been tested for accuracy and repeatability. Here we aim to display a phytolith extraction method combining the strengths of two widely used protocols, supplemented with silica microspheres as exogenous markers for quantifying phytolith concentrations. Phytolith concentrations were estimated for samples from two sedimentary sequences in which numerical age–depth models make it possible to calculate ph…
A comparison of charcoal measurements for reconstruction of Mediterranean paleo-fire frequency in the mountains of Corsica
Fire-history reconstructions inferred from sedimentary charcoal records are based on measuring sieved charcoal fragment area, estimating fragment volume, or counting fragments. Similar fire histories are reconstructed from these three approaches for boreal lake sediment cores, using locally defined thresholds. Here, we test the same approach for a montane Mediterranean lake in which taphonomical processes might differ from boreal lakes through fr…
