Lipid biomarkers in tree rings: chemotaxonomy, diagenesis and potential for palaeoenvironmental reconstructions
International audience Tree rings are reputed paleoenvironemental and palaeoclimate archives. In addition to an annually-resolved absolute chronology, they afford crucial palaeoclimate information from tree-rings thickness, and carbon and oxygen isotopes of cellulose. To our knowledge, lipid biomark...
