A 3000-year varve-thickness record from Hvítárvatn, a glacier-dominated lake in central Iceland, preserves inter-annual variations in the delivery of glacially eroded sediment to the lake. The first-order lowfrequency trend in varve thickness reflects increased glacial erosion through the Late Holoc...
