Abstract
Summary
Here, we explore the use of bacterial and archaeal lipid carbon and hydrogen isotopic compositions to explore carbon cycling processes in modern settings and in response to ancient warming events. Investigations of Holocene peat and Eocene lignites reveal both stability over long time-scales but rapid, transient responses to climate perturbations.
