Freshwater ostracodes in Quaternary Permafrost deposits from the Siberian Arctic
Ostracode analysis was carried out on samples from ice-rich permafrost deposits obtained on the BykovskyPeninsula (Laptev Sea). A composite profile was investigated that covers most of a 38 m thick permafrost sequence and corresponds to the last ca. 60 kyr of the Late Quaternary. The ostracode assem...
