Abstract:Abstract. Open questions remain around the Holocene variability of climate in Iceland, including the relative impacts of natural and anthropogenic factors on Late Holocene vegetation change and soil erosion. The lacustrine sediment record from Torfdalsvatn, north Iceland, is the longest known in Iceland (≤12000 cal a BP) and along with its high sedimentation rate, provides an opportunity to develop high-resolution quantitative records that address these challenges. In this study, we use two sediment cores from… Show more
