“…In this respect, there are more than 50 small glacial-origin alpine lakes and bogs in the Sierra Nevada that accumulated sediments preserving a high-quality signal of past natural and anthropogenic environmental and climate change (Anderson et al, 2011;Jiménez-Moreno and Anderson, 2012;García-Alix et al, 2012Jiménez-Espejo et al, 2014;Jiménez-Moreno et al, 2013Ramos-Román et al, 2016, 2018a, 2018bMesa-Fernández et al, 2018;Manzano et al, 2019;Toney et al, 2020;López-Avilés et al, 2021;Alba-Sánchez et al, 2021). Previous studies show that in the glacial lakes and wetlands from the Sierra Nevada sedimentation started after deglaciation and thereafter since the Early Holocene (see synthesis in Jiménez-Moreno et al, 2022). Therefore, older sedimentary records were yet to be found in this alpine area to widen our knowledge about environmental change further in time and since the last deglaciation.…”
