Organic and non-organic geochemistry analysis and paleoenvironment reconstruction in sediment cores of the lake Bolătău-Feredeu (Romania)

Abstract

Paleoenvironmental and paleoclimate research are among the most popular themes in geosciences. Laminated lacustrine sediments are a response to paleoclimate and paleoenvironmental changes and record this information in organic and inorganic components. Lake sediments provide proxy information at local and regional scales. Lacustrine sediment archive provides an opportunity for collaboration between several disciplines. This research is focused on the analysis of organic and non-organic geochemical data extracted from a young lake sediment sequence (~last 500 yrs).
