Climatic oscillations and their impact on taxonomic diversity and specimen abundance fluctuation of late quaternary mollusca from the Pelee Shoal, Lake Erie, Canada / by Leonard Kalas.: En36-522/40-1980E-PDF

"One out of six cores taken from western Lake Erie, south of Point Pelee, and covering almost the entire post-glacial sedimentary sequence, was chosen for detailed biostratigraphic study. The study has brought to light extensive and detailed information on fluctuations in faunal diversity and specimen abundance of molluscan taxa - the most frequent biogenic component of the sediment core. The major objective of this study is to present data on molluscan occurrence within a reliable chronological framework, and at a time resolution deemed most suitable for paleoenvironmental studies"--Abstract.
