Carbon cycling in Arctic lakes: sedimentary biomarker reconstructions from Disko Island, West Greenland

A palaeolimnological study of three lakes on Disko Island, West Greenland was conducted across a hydrogeomorphic landscape gradient, to reconstruct principally changes in algal pigments, lipid biomarkers and carbon isotopes (δ13C) to investigate carbon cycling at multiple scales and resolutions.
