South Georgia marine productivity over the past 15 ka and implications for glacial evolution (2024)
Journal Article
Wilkin, J. T., Kender, S., Dejardin, R., Allen, C. S., Peck, V. L., Swann, G. E., …Leng, M. J. (2024). South Georgia marine productivity over the past 15 ka and implications for glacial evolution. Journal of Micropalaeontology, 43(1), 165-186. https://doi.org/10.5194/jm-43-165-2024

The subantarctic islands of South Georgia are located in the Southern Ocean, and they may be sensitive to future climate warming. However, due to a lack of well-dated subantarctic palaeoclimate archives, there is still uncertainty about South Georgia...

A global compilation of diatom silica oxygen isotope records from lake sediment – trends and implications for climate reconstruction (2024)
Journal Article
Meister, P., Alexandre, A., Bailey, H., Barker, P., Biskaborn, B. K., Broadman, E., …Meyer, H. (2024). A global compilation of diatom silica oxygen isotope records from lake sediment – trends and implications for climate reconstruction. Climate of the Past, 20(2), 363-392. https://doi.org/10.5194/cp-20-363-2024

Oxygen isotopes in biogenic silica (δ18OBSi) from lake sediments allow for quantitative reconstruction of past hydroclimate and proxy-model comparison in terrestrial environments. The signals of individual records have been attributed to different fa...

Ecosystem deterioration in the middle Yangtze floodplain lakes over the last two centuries: Evidence from sedimentary pigments (2023)
Journal Article
Zeng, L., Swann, G. E., Leng, M. J., Chen, X., Ji, J., Huang, X., & McGowan, S. (2023). Ecosystem deterioration in the middle Yangtze floodplain lakes over the last two centuries: Evidence from sedimentary pigments. Quaternary Science Reviews, 302, Article 107954. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2023.107954

Water quality of floodplain lakes in the Yangtze region which supports ca. 450 million people is being severely compromised by nutrient pollution, climate change and dam installation resulting from intensive socio-economic development. However, due t... Read More about Ecosystem deterioration in the middle Yangtze floodplain lakes over the last two centuries: Evidence from sedimentary pigments.

Eutrophication has a greater influence on floodplain lake carbon cycling than dam installation across the middle Yangtze region (2022)
Journal Article
Zeng, L., McGowan, S., Swann, G. E., Leng, M. J., & Chen, X. (2022). Eutrophication has a greater influence on floodplain lake carbon cycling than dam installation across the middle Yangtze region. Journal of Hydrology, 614, Article 128510. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2022.128510

Carbon cycling in shallow floodplain lakes is complex due to variability in delivery of flood-derived allochthonous organic matter (OM). Human activities have potential to significantly modify the carbon balance of lakes by damming which restricts ex...

Silicic Acid Cycling in the Bering Sea During the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (2022)
Journal Article
Worne, S., Swann, G. E., Kender, S., Lacey, J. H., & Leng, M. J. (2022). Silicic Acid Cycling in the Bering Sea During the Mid-Pleistocene Transition. Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, 37(2), Article e2021PA004284. https://doi.org/10.1029/2021PA004284

The rate of deep-ocean carbon burial is considered important for modulating glacial-interglacial atmospheric CO2 concentrations and global climate during the Quaternary. It has been suggested that glacial iron fertilization and increased efficiency o... Read More about Silicic Acid Cycling in the Bering Sea During the Mid-Pleistocene Transition.
