Abstract:
Despite a multitude of lead-contamination archives, the history of anthropogenic lead (Pb) contamination in Central Europe during the Holocene has remained incompletely understood. Contributing to a regionally differentiated understanding of Pb contamination in Central Europe since the Late Glacial (14.5 kyrs ago), this paper presents a record of atmospheric Pb deposition from an ombrotrophic peat bog at F?ramoos, southern Germany. We combine Pb content and isotope data with pollen data allowing the interpretation of Pb signals within a context of natural change and human activities.
