A combined oxygen and silicon diatom isotope record of Late Quaternary change in Lake El’gygytgyn, North East Siberia, Quaternary Sci
Abstract Determining the response of sites within the Arctic Circle to long-term climatic change remains an essential pre-requisite for assessing the susceptibility of these regions to future global warming and Arctic Si data from Lake El'gygytgyn, Russia, and suggest environmental changes that...
