Lake level fluctuation controls the formation, types, and abundance of coated grains in hypersaline lakes: a case study from Urmia Lake (NW Iran)

Sign Up to like & get
recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Journal of Quaternary Science"

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.3694

Abstract: The hypersaline Urmia Lake in NW Iran offers unique sedimentary environments sensitive to climate and environmental shifts, fostering coated grain formation and serving as a vital indicator of paleoenvironmental conditions. This study characterizes coated grains… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.70036

Abstract: The internal and external climatic forcings of the Earth frequently influence lake levels by regulating atmospheric circulation systems. Notably, the interaction between westerly winds and monsoons in mid‐to‐low latitudes triggers complicated lake level modes on… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2017 at "Permafrost and Periglacial Processes"

DOI: 10.1002/ppp.1901

Abstract: Lithalsas (ice‐cored permafrost mounds) are common within silty clay sediments of the Great Slave Lowland, a low‐relief bedrock plain extending to about 50 m above Great Slave Lake, Northwest Territories. Following retreat of the Laurentide… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2020 at "River Research and Applications"

DOI: 10.1002/rra.3569

Abstract: River–lake water exchange reflects hydrological connectivity and the dynamic relationship between the river and the lake. The water exchange is crucial for lake level variation, downstream river discharge and the ecosystem. To figure out the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00382-019-04633-3

Abstract: Recently-developed Holocene lake-level reconstructions from the Rocky Mountains offer a quantitative target for testing the skill of state-of-the-art climate system models in simulating hydroclimate change. Here, we use a combination of hydrologic models of catchment… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.palaeo.2019.05.048

Abstract: Abstract Lake Van, the largest soda lake in the world, is a key area where climatic changes are recorded by well-preserved sedimentary successions. In spite of the existence of such sequences, the ancient lake levels… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/qua.2018.50

Abstract: Abstract Reconstruction of lake-level fluctuations from landform and outcrop evidence typically involves characterizing periods with relative high stands. We developed a new approach to provide water-level estimates in the absence of shoreline evidence for Owens… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2019gl082157

Abstract: Lake‐level reconstructions, related to terrestrial hydrological changes, are important for our understanding of past and future climates. Currently, however, reliable lake‐level proxies are still limited. Here we report distributions of archaeal tetraether lipids in 70… read more here.
