Long-term patterns in phenotypic plasticity of chironomid head capsules in small high-elevation subarctic lakes: exploring possible mechanisms using multi-proxy paleolimnological records

Abstract We quantified temporal variation in the head capsule (HC) length of subfossil chironomids from two high-elevation subarctic lakes in northern Sweden and explored its potential drivers using chironomid assemblages, sedimentary pigments, and stable isotope analyses. Althou...
