abstract: This is the final report to Natural England on Contract No: SAE03/02/054 ‘Using
novel palaeolimnological techniques to define lake conservation objectives: Phase 2’.
The primary objective of this project is to use existing and recently developed
palaeoecological techniques to define reference conditions and assess the condition
of selected SSSIs in England, and thereby to assist in the setting of conservation
objectives and management goals. The project is divided into four main tasks. Task 1
involved the collection, processing and dating of cores from the study sites and was
reported in Phase 1 (Bennion et al., 2008a). Here, in Phase 2, we describe the
results of Tasks 2 and 3 which involve macrofossil analyses of cores from five sites:
Aqualate Mere, Over Water, Hornsea Mere, Cunswick Tarn and Sunbiggin Tarn. For
the latter two marl lakes, a new method for identifying the charophyte oospores was
applied. For Over Water, diatom analysis was also conducted and a diatomphosphorus transfer function was applied to assess changes in water quality.
