Detecting climate-driven ecological changes in high-altitude lakes in the Sierra Nevada, California
Over the past several decades, increasing climate instability in the Sierra Nevada, California, expressed primarily as reduced winter precipitation and higher temperatures, has led to more frequent drought. High-altitude lakes in this region have been characterized as pristine ecosystems, but growing evidence suggests that they are responding acutely to climate change. To address this, we analyzed the diatom assemblages of two 210 Pb dated sedime…
Spatial variability in nearshore sediment pollution in Lake Tanganyika (East Africa) and implications for fisheries conservation
Late Holocene Indian Summer Monsoon Variations Recorded at Lake Erhai, Southwestern China
In this study we report changes in Indian summer monsoon (ISM) intensity during the past ~ 3500 yr inferred from proxy indices at Lake Erhai, southwestern China. Both the pollen concentrations and other proxy indices, including sediment grain size, total organic carbon contents (TOC), and elemental contents (e.g., Fe, Al), clearly indicate a long term decreasing trend in ISM intensity over the late Holocene. During the period from approximately A…
Abrupt Holocene Indian Summer Monsoon failures
Knowledge of the millennial abrupt monsoon failures is critical to understanding the related causes. Here, we extracted proxy indices of Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) intensity during the early to mid-Holocene, from peat deposits at Lake Xihu, in southwestern China. There are a series of abrupt, millennial-scale episodes of ISM weakening inferred from the Lake Xihu records, which are generally synchronous with those inferred from other archives ove…
Rev. John Elder and Identity in the Pennsylvania Backcountry
While scholars have often cited the letters of the Reverend John Elder, housed in the archives of the Historical Society of Dauphin County, for information concerning the political atmosphere in the Pennsylvania backcountry during and immediately after the French and Indian War, few historians have taken notice of the clues that Elder’s letters provide regarding the complicated nature of identity in the region
