DOI 10.1007/s10933-012-9602-9 ORIGINAL PAPER A sedimentary and geochemical record of water-level
Abstract A multi-proxy analysis of two sediment cores from Rantin Lake are used to reconstruct past lake-level changes and to make inferences about millennial-scale variations in precipitation/evaporation (P/E) balance in the southern Yukon, Canada between 10,900 and 3,100 cal yr BP. Analyses of cal...
