Identifying white spots on the roadmap of Late Pleistocene and Holocene palaeolimnology in Slovakia

Stoklasa, Jaroslav, 1985- Identifying white spots on the roadmap of Late Pleistocene and Holocene palaeolimnology in Slovakia : review and future directions ; Jaroslav Stoklasa ... [et al.]. -- Paleolimnological research in the territory of Slovakia has relatively short history with the beginning in the 1990s primarily as a response to the ecological changes in mountain lakes due to air pollution and missing data from the pre-industrial period as well as a need to quantify anthropic impact on the landscape. In the present paper, we reviewed 53 publications, including research papers, monographs, conference abstracts and theses, dealing with aquatic proxies in Holocene lake sediments to identify (1) the location of surveyed sites, (2) proxies used, and (3) the object of the paleolimnological reconstructions. The vast majority (37) of the analysed paleolimnological localities (51) took place in the High Tatra Mountains, focusing on the alpine lakes of glacial origin. The most frequently used biological proxy was Chironomidae remains (44%). In contrast, Cladocera, Ostracoda, loss-on-ignition, molluscs and stable isotopes were used only in 10-12% of studies. Most studies (84%) fo
