Marine ecosystem shifts with deglacial sea-ice loss inferred from ancient DNA shotgun sequencing by Heike H. Zimmermann, Kathleen R. Stoof-Leichsenring, Viktor Dinkel, Lars Harms, Luise Schulte, Marc-Thorsten Hütt, Dirk Nürnberg, Ralf Tiedemann, Ulrike Herzschuh

“…Using marine sedimentary ancient DNA form the Bering Sea covering the last ~20,000 years, this study reveals a transition from a sea ice-adapted ecosystem, characterized by diatoms, copepods and codfish, to an ice-free Holocene with cyanobacteria, salmon and herring.…”

Pleistocene glacial and interglacial ecosystems inferred from ancient DNA analyses of permafrost sediments from Batagay megaslump, East Siberia by Jérémy Courtin, Amedea Perfumo, Andrei A. Andreev, Thomas Opel, Kathleen R. Stoof‐Leichsenring, Mary E. Edwards, Julian B. Murton, Ulrike Herzschuh

“…Here, we present a shotgun metagenomic analysis of sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA) to infer past ecosystem‐wide biotic composition (from viruses to megaherbivores) from the Middle and Late Pleistocene at the Batagay megaslump, East Siberia. …”
