Establishment and functioning of the savanna marshes of the Lopé National Park in Gabon since the termination of the African humid period and the arrival of humans 2500 years ago
Holocene paleoecological studies in tropical Africa are rare because most lakes either dried out at the termination of the African Humid Period or have since filled up. However, tropical sedge marshes can be an alternative to perform long-term ecological studies. The Lopé National Park (LNP) in Gabon is a mosaic of forest and savanna enclosed in the equatorial forest, where open areas facilitated the development of peat marshes accumulating sever…
Coupled Rock-Eval pyrolysis and spectrophotometry for lacustrine sedimentary dynamics
In recent years, Nguène Lake and Kamalété Lake (Gabon, West Central Africa) have been studied repeatedly, providing comprehensive reconstructions of environmental changes over the last millennia. Both lakes are in different geomorphological and environmental settings. They are therefore excellent sites to test new methodological approaches. Indeed, the sedimentary cores provide various facies, and the previous studies provide references for calib…
Lowland rainforest response to hydrological changes during the last 1500 years in Gabon, Western Equatorial Africa
Pollen and δ 13 C TOM data obtained from two contrasting lake sequences (Lakes Kamalété and Nguène), located 200 km apart in the lowland rainforest of Gabon, provide complementary local and regional 1500-yr records of high resolution (15–30 yr) vegetation change. A combination of aquatic, semi-aquatic and terrestrial pollen showed in both records that the tropical rainforest increased during periods of high rainfall and decreased during drought i…
Vegetation changes during the past 1300 years in western equatorial Afnrca
Vegetation changes during the past 1300 years are reconstructed in western equatorial Africa using a high-resolution pollen record from Lake Kamalete This small marshy basin (c. 5-7 ha) is located in forest-savanna mosaic in Lope Reserve (043'S, 116'E), central Gabon. The Kamalete pollen data show the persistence over the past 1300 years of a relatively stable forest-savanna mosaic, associated with significant changes of the forest component. Thr…
