"Holocene climate and catchment change inferred from the geochemistry o" by Lucinda Cameron Duxbury, Lluka Yohanni Johns-Mead et al.
We present a continuous ∼7000-year sedimentary record from Lashmars Lagoon, Kangaroo Island (Karti/Karta), southern Australia, a region heavily impacted by drought and bushfires in recent decades. Records such as this are vital to contextualise current climatic and environmental shifts, particularly regarding the interplay between hydroclimate and fire-related disturbances in this ecologically sensitive area. We use high-resolution μX-ray fluorescence core scanning, complemented by bulk organic geochemistry and X-ray diffraction mineralogy of catchment soil and lake sediments to reconstruct...
