Societal response to monsoonal fluctuations in NE Thailand during the demise of Angkor Civilisation
This paper investigates the possible social responses to changes in the strength of the southwest monsoon in northeastern Thailand during the currency of the Angkor civilisation. These assessments are based on hydrogen and carbon isotope records of leaf waxes (δD wax and δ 13 C wax ) from a 2000-year-long wetland sequence of Pa Kho in northeastern Thailand, a region that formed the northern boundary of the Angkor Kingdom. Our data indicate anthro…
Human adaptation to mid- to late-Holocene climate change in Northeast Thailand
This article integrates palaeoenvironmental and archaeological sequences covering the mid- to late-Holocene in Northeast Thailand. The former reveal the fluctuating intensity of the Asian summer monsoon, leading to periods of higher moisture availability with intervals of relative aridity. The latter are founded on a series of new radiocarbon determinations that provide a basic chronological framework, from the initial Neolithic settlements by ri…
Lake Kumphawapi revisited – The complex climatic and environmental record of a tropical wetland in NE Thailand
Kumphawapi, which is Thailand’s largest natural freshwater lake, contains a >10,000-year-long climatic and environmental archive. New data sets (stratigraphy, chronology, hydrogen isotopes, plant macrofossil and charcoal records) for two sedimentary sequences are here combined with earlier multi-proxy studies to provide a comprehensive reconstruction of past climatic and environmental changes for Northeast Thailand. Gradually higher moisture avai…
The demise of the alga Botryococcus braunii from a Norwegian fjord was due to early eutrophication
In the sedimentary record of the permanently anoxic Drammensfjord, a suite of lipid biomarkers that are derived from the alga Botryococcus braunii (Kiutzing), botryococcenes, is present in varying amounts, but absent in sediments deposited after AD 1850. The disappearance is concurrent with the industrialization of sawmills and the introduction of paper and pulp mills along the river Drammen and upstream water bodies, and the related increase of …
