AReS - Anthropogenic signatures in reservoir sediments: the past century
Due to their high accumulation rate and undisturbed sedimentation conditions, reservoirs form an excellent landscape archive for the Anthropocene. As part of the project, sediments from five reservoirs in the northern Eifel region are being examined in detail in order to reconstruct both human and climatic influences over the last 100 years.
