Organic-Rich Deposits and Environments

Description

Forests and wetlands form sedimentary environments where organic-rich material accumulates with time, thus forming natural archives. Remains of macroscopic plants, pollens, insects and other organisms can be preserved in these sediments. These are frequently used to reconstruct palaeoclimate records using various proxy techniques.
