Environmental change in many tropical, alpine habitats remains poorly resolved due to an absence of proximate and sustained observations. In the Rwenzori Mountains of East Africa, glaciers have receded rapidly over the last century, and here we asses...

Diatom oxygen isotopes: evidence of a species effect in the sediment record (2007)
Journal Article
Swann, G. E., Leng, M. J., Sloane, H. J., Maslin, M. A., & Onodera, J. (2007). Diatom oxygen isotopes: evidence of a species effect in the sediment record. Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 8(6), Article Q06012. https://doi.org/10.1029/2006GC001535

Diatom oxygen isotope measurements are commonly made on bulk mixed species assemblages due to the difficulty in purifying and separating individual taxa. As such, it is essential to understand processes in diatoms which may lead to isotope offsets bo... Read More about Diatom oxygen isotopes: evidence of a species effect in the sediment record.
