  <Summary>
    <Abstract>The low-Arctic region of western Hudson Bay in interior Canada 
is one of the most poorly described areas of North America 
in terms of Holocene climate history. Here, we present new data 
from a well-dated lake sediment core from northern Manitoba, Canada. 
We assemble one of the richest multi-proxy datasets to date for a 
low-Arctic lake and characterize terrestrial and lake processes 
and exchanges between them. These proxies include fossil pollen 
and diatom assemblages, charcoal, magnetic properties (susceptibility 
and remanance), mineral grain size, bulk density, organic-matter 
content, elemental geochemistry, sediment cation (K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, 
Fe2+/Fe3+) and macronutrient (P, N, C) contents, biogenic-silica 
content, basal peat dates (wetland initiation), and stable isotopes 
(d13C, d15N). The sediment proxies record both broad- and fine-scale 
(millennial and sub-millennial) climate change. We find indirect 
evidence for a cool and dry post-glacial period from 9,000 to 6,500 
cal yr BP, a warm and moist mid-Holocene period from 6,500 to 2,500 
cal yr BP, and a cool and moist late-Holocene period from 2,500 
cal yr BP to present. High-resolution geochemical data suggests 
300- to 500-year-long dry periods at ~6,500-6,100, 5,300-5,000, 
3,300-2,800, and 400-0 cal yr BP. These results suggest that 
terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem dynamics in the western Hudson Bay 
region are sensitive to past climate change and are likely to respond 
to future changes in temperature and precipitation. 
          STUDY NOTES: Multiproxy sediment data from Unit Lake, Manitoba for the past 
12,000 years. Paleoenvironmental proxies measured include 
fossil pollen and diatom assemblages, charcoal, magnetic properties 
(susceptibility and remanance), mineral grain size, bulk density, 
organic-matter content, elemental geochemistry, sediment cation 
(K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Fe2+/Fe3+) and macronutrient (P, N, C) contents, 
biogenic-silica content, basal peat dates (wetland initiation), 
and stable isotopes (d13C, d15N).
