1. 1. Stratigraphy and dating of a lake sediment record from Lyngsjön, eastern Scania : human impact and aeolian sand deposition during the last millennium

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

   Author : Marijana Stevic; [2019]
   Keywords : aeolian activity; human impact; geochemistry; lake sediments; pollen; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : A small lake in north-eastern Scania, southern Sweden, Lake Lyngsjön, reveals a long history of aeolian sand drift based on a 3 meter long sediment sequence covering the last approximately 1400 years. Human impact, primarily through intensified land use and decreased forest cover, has periodically led to increased aeolian sand drift both locally and regionally. READ MORE

4. 3. Pollen-stratigraphic position of the last Baltic Ice Lake drainage

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

   Author : Felicia Dobos; [1997]
   Keywords : Baltic Ice Lake; second drainage; Preboreal; Younger Dryas; pollen stratigraphy; mineral magnetic content; total carbon content; Blekinge; Sweden; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : High-resolution analyses of sediments from two sites in Blekinge, south-eastern Sweden (the former Lake Togölen and Lake Bredsjön), were evaluated in order to establish the pollenstratigraphical position of the second and final drainage of the Baltic Ice Lake in relation to the Younger Dryas-Preboreal pollen zone transition. Remanent magnetisation and magnetic susceptibility were used to correlate between parallel cores and to evaluate the amount of inorganic allochthonous material. READ MORE
