Covering 55% of Canada’s total surface area and stretching from coast to coast, the Canadian boreal zone is crucial nation’s economic ecological integrity. Although often viewed as relatively underdeveloped, it vulnerable numerous stressors such mining, forestry, anthropogenic climate change. Natural archives preserved in lake sediments can provide key insights by quantifying pre-disturbance conditions (pre-1850 CE) nature, magnitude, direction, speed environmental change induced over past...
Abstract Lake sedimentation rate represents a synthetic metric of ecosystem functioning. Many localized studies have reported significant association between land use/land cover changes and lake sediment mass accumulation rates, with few global syntheses echoing these findings at larger scales. In the literature, evaluating lead‐210 ( 210 Pb) for establishing chronologies will report least one three dating models, but constant supply (CRS) model is most widely used. However, it often unclear...
The particle size of lake sediments integrates important environmental information, and the detection changes in this variable over time provides information for understanding ecosystem sedimentary processes. Although standard machine learning regression algorithms especially random forest (RF) have shown great potential mapping sediment cores using hyperspectral imaging, no research has yet applied deep approaches.
