Postglacial hydroclimate in the southern interior of British Columbia (Canada): Lake ecosystem response to the Holocene Thermal Maximum and drivers of mid-to-late Holocene climate variability

The Holocene Thermal Maximum (HTM) is relatively well-understood both in terms of its external drivers and timing of its expression in different regions across the globe, and has previously been used to investigate lake ecosystem response to a warm and drier climate. However, connections between mid-to-late Holocene climate, associated drivers, and lake response are less understood, particularly in western North America (WNA) where complex …
