This sub-unit contains many terrigenous components; moreover, its chemical composition is similar to the onshore sediments analysed (Fig. 6).
The sediment analyses included metal concentrations, lead-isotopes and phytolith analysis, and OSL dating.
But soil and sediment analyses show that the farmers, too, tried to adapt, Simpson said, often fertilizing and watering their pastures more intensively as temperatures dropped.
Pollen from lake cores and sediment analyses from loess sections firmly point to a warm-moist Mid-Holocene Climatic Optimum.
Water and sediment analyses indicated lower and higher concentrations of zinc content at S5 and S4 sites during summer and autumn season, respectively.
Additionally, drilling was conducted in Bubastis in spring 2016; six boreholes were made and preliminary macroscopy sediment analyses suggest a Pre-Holocene genesis of the underlying sediments.
Along the Algarve coast, multi-proxy investigations of four estuaries detail the Holocene landscape evolution through high-resolution pollen and sediment analyses.
We investigate the temporal and spatial dynamics of a 7.5 km2, partly drained thermokarst basin (alas) using field investigations, remote sensing, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and sediment analyses.
Various project-related and adapted techniques, as well as methods that include historical studies, remote sensing, fieldwork, mapping, sediment sampling in combination with subsequent sedimentological, geochemical, and ecotoxicological sediment analyses, will be used.
Using sediment analyses including organic content, magnetic susceptibility, particle size, total carbon and nitrogen contents and carbon isotope analysis, coupled with 3D modelling, we are able to present a new reconstruction of the palaeotopography and sedimentary environments of the site.
