Analysis of Stratigraphical Data

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Tracking Environmental Change Using Lake Sediments

Part of the book series: Developments in Paleoenvironmental Research ((DPER,volume 5))

Abstract

This chapter discusses numerical methods that can aid in the summarisation and analysis of patterns in complex multivariate palaeolimnological data. These methods are constrained cluster analysis and constrained partitioning for zonation, partitioning of individual stratigraphical sequences for exploring patterns within and between taxa, ordination techniques for summarising trends within stratigraphical data, rate-of-change analysis for estimating rates of biotic change through time, and dissimilarity analysis and ordination techniques for quantifying the magnitude of recent change. Availability of appropriate computer software is outlined and possible future developments are discussed.
