    • High resolution ancient sedimentary DNA shows that alpine plant diversity is associated with human land use and climate change 

      Garces Pastor, Sandra; Alsos, Inger Greve; Coissac, Eric; Lavergne, Sébastien; Schwörer, Christoph; Theurillat, Jean-Paul; Heintzman, Peter D.; Wangensteen, Owen S.; Tinner, Willy; Rey, Fabian; Heer, Martina; Rutzer, Astrid; Walsh, Kevin; Lammers, Youri; Brown, Antony G.; Goslar, Tomasz; Rijal, Dilli P.; Karger, Dirk N.; Pellissier, Loïc; Heiri, Oliver (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-04)
      The European Alps are highly rich in species, but their future may be threatened by ongoing changes in human land use and climate. Here, we reconstructed vegetation, temperature, human impact and livestock over the past ~12,000 years from Lake Sulsseewli, based on sedimentary ancient plant and mammal DNA, pollen, spores, chironomids, and microcharcoal. We assembled a highly-complete local DNA ...

    • How well can near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) measure sediment organic matter in multiple lakes? 

      Ancin-Murguzur, Francisco Javier; Brown, Antony G.; Clarke, Charlotte; Sjøgren, Per; Svendsen, John Inge; Alsos, Inger Greve (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-19)
      Loss-on-ignition (LOI) is the most widely used measure of organic matter in lake sediments, a variable related to both climate and land-use change. The main drawback for conventional measurement methods is the processing time and hence high labor costs associated with high-resolution analyses. On the other hand, broad-based near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) is a time and cost efficient ...

    • Lake Sedimentary DNA Research on Past Terrestrial and Aquatic Biodiversity: Overview and Recommendations 

      Capo, Eric; Giguet-Covex, Charline; Rouillard, Alexandra; Nota, Kevin; Heintzman, Peter D.; Vuillemin, Aurèle; Ariztegui, Daniel; Arnaud, Fabien; Belle, Simon; Bertilsson, Stefan; Bigler, Christian; Bindler, Richard; Brown, Antony G.; Clarke, Charlotte L.; Crump, Sarah E.; Debroas, Didier; Englund, Göran; Ficetola, Gentile Francesco; Garner, Rebecca E.; Gauthier, Joanna; Gregory-Eaves, Irene; Heinecke, Liv; Herzschuh, Ulrike; Ibrahim, Anan; Kisand, Veljo; Kjær, Kurt H.; Lammers, Youri; Littlefair, Joanne; Messager, Erwan; Monchamp, Marie-Eve; Olajos, Fredrik; Orsi, William; Pedersen, Mikkel W.; Rijal, Dilli P.; Rydberg, Johan; Spanbauer, Trisha; Stoof-Leichsenring, Kathleen R.; Taberlet, Pierre; Talas, Liisi; Thomas, Camille; Walsh, David A.; Wang, Yucheng; Willerslev, Eske; van Woerkom, Anne; Zimmermann, Heike H.; Coolen, Marco J. L.; Epp, Laura S.; Domaizon, Isabelle; Alsos, Inger G.; Parducci, Laura (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-02-13)
      The use of lake sedimentary DNA to track the long-term changes in both terrestrial and aquatic biota is a rapidly advancing field in paleoecological research. Although largely applied nowadays, knowledge gaps remain in this field and there is therefore still research to be conducted to ensure the reliability of the sedimentary DNA signal. Building on the most recent literature and seven original ...

    • Last Glacial Maximum environmental conditions at Andøya, northern Norway; evidence for a northern ice-edge ecological “hotspot” 

      Alsos, Inger Greve; Sjögren, Per; Brown, Antony G.; Gielly, Ludovic; Merke, Marie Kristine Føreid; Paus, Aage; Lammers, Youri; Edwards, Mary E.; Alm, Torbjørn; Leng, Melanie; Goslar, Tomasz; Langdon, Catherine T.; Bakke, Jostein; van der Bilt, Willem G.M. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-06-05)
      Andøya on the NW coast of Norway is a key site for understanding the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) in northern Europe. Controversy has arisen concerning the local conditions, especially about the timing and extent of local glacial cover, maximum July temperatures and whether pine and/or spruce could have grown there. We reviewed all existing data and add newly analysed ancient sedimentary DNA ...
