[1] We investigated the factors controlling lake evolution in Arctic ecosystems using a multiproxy paleolimnological approach on a small lake on Baffin Island, Arctic Canada. Lakewater pH was inferred from fossil diatom assemblages, whereas primary production was assessed from sediment concentration...
