Abstract
The ecological themes that can be addressed by an analysis of the sediment record include species and assemblage persistence and antiquity, rates and directions of change in lake-basin morphometry. Suggests that contemporary short-term seasonal and inter-annual studies cannot be fully understood without a consideration of the medium-term decadal and longer trajectories provided by palaeoecological analyses. -from Authors
