Learning and personal epistemologies among students in three work placement settings
Recent development in policy and learning theory encourages higher education institutions to send their students out of campus and into work placements. In this paper, we report on students’ engagement with various aspects of knowing through practice in work placements. We employed focus group discussions to gather students’ accounts of their knowing in the three higher education programmes: Teacher Education, Aqua Medicine, and Music Performance…
Late-Holocene temperature and precipitation changes in Vindelfjällen, mid-western Swedish Lapland, inferred from chironomid and geochemical data
In this article, we present results from a palaeolimnological study from Lake Vuoksjávrátje in the mountain tundra region in the Vindelfjällen Mountains, northwest Sweden. We suggest that the influence of precipitation may be one of the factors causing discrepancies between chironomid-based late-Holocene July temperature (JulyT) reconstructions from Fennoscandia. We combine quantitative temperature reconstruction using chironomids for the last 51…
Inconsistent results should not be overlooked
Empirical data in the form of many chironomid-based temperature reconstructions give an excellent opportunity to assess the chironomid approach to temperature reconstruction by testing its reproducibility. Brooks et al. ( The Holocene 22(12) 2012 (this issue)) offer a critique of points discussed in Velle et al. ( The Holocene 20 (2010) 989–1002), but fail to explain the poor reproducibility found when Holocene chironomid-based temperature recons…
Minimizing the edge-effect in environmental reconstructions by trimming the calibration set
A core from Lake Skardtjørna on western Spitsbergen was analysed for subfossil chironomids with the aim of inferring past temperatures. The core spans the last 1760 years and has a low concentration and low diversity of chironomids. Three taxa dominate the record: Oliveridia tricornis, Micropsectra radialistype, and M. insignilobus-type, the latter not previously recorded on Svalbard. Compared with the full Norwegian modern climate—chironomid cal…
Midges as quantitative temperature indicator species
Calibration data sets give a unique opportunity to establish patterns of biological existence and their statistical associations with environmental variables. By use of calibration data sets, environmental variables can be inferred quantitatively. The resulting long time-series may assist in distinguishing natural environmental variability from human-induced variability, both in terms of climate change and biotic turnover. However, the validity o…
Palaeolimnological and sedimentary responses to Holocene forest retreat in the Scandes Mountains, west-central Sweden
A suite of analyses was performed on sediments accumulated during the last 10 700 years in Lake Spaime, a small, hydrologically open water body in the modem alpine tundra zone of the Scandes Mountains, west-central Sweden. The study aimed to evaluate (1) the nature of climate changes that forced the late-Holocene lowering of altitudinal tree limit in the region, the timing of which is known from prior studies based on radiocarbon dating of subfos…
