Zusammenfassung |
A Late Glacial to Holocene sediment sequence (Co1260, 717 cm) from Lake
Dojran, located at the boarder of the F.Y.R. of Macedonia and Greece, has
been investigated to provide information on climate variability in the
Balkan region. A robust age-model was established from 13 radiocarbon ages,
and indicates that the base of the sequence was deposited at ca. 12 500 cal yr BP,
when the lake-level was low. Variations in sedimentological (H2O, TOC,
CaCO3, TS, TOC/TN, TOC/TS, grain-size, XRF, δ18Ocarb,
δ13Ccarb, δ13Corg) data were linked to
hydro-acoustic data and indicate that warmer and more humid climate
conditions characterised the remaining period of the Younger Dryas until the
beginning of the Holocene. The Holocene exhibits significant environmental
variations, including the 8.2 and 4.2 ka cooling events, the Medieval
Warm Period and the Little Ice Age. Human induced erosion processes in the
catchment of Lake Dojran intensified after 2800 cal yr BP. |
