Holocene organic carbon burial rates in the southeastern Swedish Baltic Sea
To estimate Holocene changes in organic carbon mass accumulation rates (C-org MARs) in the southeastern Swedish Baltic Sea two sediment cores were studied in combination with biogeochemical modelling. Prior to 11300 cal. BP, C-org MARs were extremely low, indicating low organic matter production on the catchment of the Baltic Ice Lake. Following a brief regression, the Ancylus Lake stage occurred
