ASSESSING THE INFLUENCE OF A WARMING CLIMATE ON THE BIOTA OF ARCTIC FRESHWATER SYSTEMS
(2022-12-19)Understanding the effects of climate change is particularly important for northern regions, where temperatures have increased by considerably more than that of the global average since the start of the 20th century. As a ... -
INVESTIGATING THE INFLUENCE OF LANDSCAPE DISTURBANCE AND CONNECTIVITY ON HIGH LATITUDE AND ARCTIC AQUATIC SYSTEMS: A PALEOLIMNOLOGICAL APPROACH
(2020-12-15)Connectivity across the terrestrial-aquatic interface drives transport of sediments and nutrients to aquatic systems, a relationship that is significant to historically undisturbed and unproductive lakes. The purpose of ... -
LONG-TERM RESPONSES OF CHIRONOMIDS TO HUMAN SETTLEMENT
(2022-04-12)Anthropogenic stress has altered the ecological integrity of freshwater lakes for millennia. This remains a confounding factor when examining ecological changes prior to human records. Freshwater management attempts to ... -
Using High-Throughput Paleolimnological Methods to Evaluate the Distribution and Transport of Lead in Northeastern North America
(2020-09-17)Using high-throughput paleolimnological methods, this thesis evaluated anthropogenic Pb deposition along a west-east transect from the Adirondack Mountains, New York, USA (ADIR) region, the Vermont-New Hampshire-Maine, USA ...
