Paleolimnology is a scientific discipline closely related to both limnology and paleoecology. Palaeolimnological studies are concerned with reconstructing the paleoenvironments of inland waters and changes associated with such events as climatic change, human impacts, and internal ontogenic processes. Paleolimnological studies are commonly based on meticulous analyses of sediment cores, including the physical, chemical and mineralogical properties of sediments, and diverse biological records.
