Glacial-lake outburst erosion of the Grand Valley, Michigan, and impacts on glacial lakes in the Lake Michigan Basin
  • Glacial-lake outburst erosion of the Grand Valley, Michigan, and impacts on glacial lakes in the Lake Michigan Basin
  • Catastrophe ; Flood ; Glacial erosion ; Glacial features ; Glacial lake ; Ice breakup ; Lake level ; Michigan ; Palaeogeography ; Quaternary ; United States
  • The purpose of this paper is to document the outburst origin of the Grand Valley and to explore the implications of these events upon interpretations of the timing and processes of lake-leved changes in glacial Lake Chicago.

Salt dissolution features in saline lakes of the northern Great Plains, western Canada
  • Salt dissolution features in saline lakes of the northern Great Plains, western Canada
  • Alberta ; Canada ; Carbonate dissolution ; Evaporite ; Lacustrine sediment ; Lake ; Manitoba ; Palaeo-environment ; Quaternary ; Salt lake ; Saskatchewan
  • Large-scale salt dissolution is an important process affecting the sediments of many of the saline lakes in the northern Great Plains region of western Canada. The most easily recognized features of this salt karst are water-filled chimneys
  • , vertical shafts, and collapse structures. Because these salt karst features can affect large vertical sections of the sediment fill in the lakes, their recognition is of fundamental importance in attempting to use the stratigraphic records of the basins

Lake evolution during the last 3 000 years in China and its implications for environmental change
  • Lake evolution during the last 3 000 years in China and its implications for environmental change
  • China ; Climatic variation ; Historical geography ; Holocene ; Human impact ; Lake ; Lake level ; Palaeo-environment ; Quaternary ; Sea level
  • This paper, a companion to a previous one on lake evolution in China during the past 30,000 yr based on geological data, focuses on lake evolution over the past 3 000 yr, based on historical sources, and its possible implications for environmental

A 35,000 year vegetation and climate history from Potato Lake, Mogollon Rim, Arizona
  • A 35,000 year vegetation and climate history from Potato Lake, Mogollon Rim, Arizona
  • Arizona ; Lake level ; Palaeo-ecology ; Palaeo-environment ; Palaeobotany ; Palaeoclimate ; Palaeozoology ; Palynology ; Quaternary ; United States
  • A new record from Potato Lake, central Arizona, details vegetation and climate changes since the mid-Wisconsin for the southern Colorado Plateau. Climatic estimates presented here are consistent with other lines of evidence suggesting a cool
  • and/or wet mid-Wisconsin, and a cold and/or wet late-Wisconsin climate for much of the Southwest. Potato Lake was almost completely dry during the mid-Holocene, but lake levels increased to near modern conditions by ca. 3000 yr B.P.

A model of pollen source area for an entire lake surface
  • A model of pollen source area for an entire lake surface
  • This paper describes a model for pollen deposition integrated over an entire lake surface, and it estimates the source area of major pollen types for various lake sizes. It is a modification of Prentice's (1985, 1988) model, which estimates
  • the source area of pollen deposited at a point in the center of a sedimentary basin. Comparison of the results from the two models displays the potential differences in pollen source areas when a bog and a lake of similar size are considered.

Reconstruction of Holocene precipitation patterns in Europe using pollen and lake-level data
  • Reconstruction of Holocene precipitation patterns in Europe using pollen and lake-level data
  • Europe ; Holocene ; Lake level ; Model ; Palaeoclimatology ; Palaeogeography ; Palynology ; Precipitation ; Quaternary
  • Lake-level data can be used to refine paleoclimate reconstructions based on pollen data. This approach is illustrated for the European Holocene. Reconstructions of temperature and precipitation are presented here for 9000, 6000, and 3000 yr B.P
  • . The maps demonstrate that a substantial improvement in quantitative palaeoclimate estimation can be achieved by using pollen and lake-level data in combination.

Late Pleistocene and Holocene paleoenvironments of Chalco Lake, central Mexico
  • Late Pleistocene and Holocene paleoenvironments of Chalco Lake, central Mexico
  • C 14 dating ; Diatom ; Lake level ; Magnetic susceptibility ; Mexico ; Palaeo-environment ; Palaeoclimate ; Palynology ; Quaternary ; Tephrochronology
  • In order to establish the environmental conditions during the late Pleistocene and Holocene, four cores were drilled in the west-central sector of Chalco Lake. Variations in the magnetic susceptibility, pollen, diatoms, and loss-on-ignition
  • in the upper 8m in two close, parallel cores have been studied in order to evaluate erosion, paleoclimate, vegetation, and lake-level changes.

Factors affecting 14C ages of lacustrine carbonates : timing and duration of the Last Highstand Lake in the Lahontan Basin
  • Factors affecting 14C ages of lacustrine carbonates : timing and duration of the Last Highstand Lake in the Lahontan Basin
  • C14 dating ; California ; Carbonate ; Geochemistry ; Lake ; Lake level ; Nevada ; Palaeogeography ; United States
  • The purposes of this paper are to determine when corrections for low initial 14C/c ratios in lake water should be made and which Lahontan carbonates listed in published carbonate 14C data bases (e.g., Benson, 1978, 1981; Benson et al., 1991) have
  • of highstand carbonates and used to estimate the timing and duration of the last Lake Lahontan highstand.
