High-resolution lacustrine record of the late glacial/holocene transition in central Europe

The usefulness of subfossil Cladocera remains in Younger Dryas climatic reconstructions in central Poland

“…In addition, this situation confirms that the mid-YD transition was locally abrupt but time-transgressive across Europe. A similar warming trend at the end of the YD has been widely observed in other lakes throughout Europe (Bohncke et al 1993;Goslar et al 1993;RalskaJasiewiczowa et al 1998;Lotter et al 2000;Velichko et al 2002;Birks and Ammann 2000;Birks et al 2010;Neugebauer et al 2012;Brooks and Langdon 2014;Ganduoin et al 2016). Most authors have suggested a probable strong warming (ca.…”

Late-glacial and Holocene vegetation history and dynamics as shown by pollen and plant macrofossil analyses in annually laminated sediments from Soppensee, central Switzerland

“…To avoid discrepancy problems due to chronological differences with other laminated sedimentary records (e.g. Zolitschka et al 1992;Goslar et al 1993;Bj6rck et al 1996;Hughen et al 1998) the absolute chronology was only extended back to that part of the Late-glacial period where these varve chronologies are consistent. Moreover, modelling of the youngest part of the chronology (Fig.…”

Radiocarbon Calibration by Means of Varves Versus 14C Ages of Terrestrial Macrofossils from Lake Gościąż and Lake Perespilno, Poland

“…Usually, two targets were measured, and the results averaged. For all the small samples dated between 1993 and 1998, we used the correction for mass-dependence of background introduced after measurements of "infinitely" old wood samples (Goslar et al 1993). However, further improvements in the cleaning preparation of samples and glass containers lowered the background in 1999 to about one third of that occurring in 1993.…”
