Late Holocene hydrology inferred from lacustrine sediments of Laguna Cha´ltel (southeastern Argentina)
Hydrological changes that occurred during the last 4700years have been reconstructed using multi-proxy analyses of sediment cores from the volcanic crater lake of Laguna Cha´ltel (50°S, 71°W). The chronology is based on AMS 14 C age modeling constrained by paleomagnetic secular variations. Chemical...

Hydrological changes that occurred during the last 4700years have been reconstructed using multi-proxy analyses of sediment cores from the volcanic crater lake of Laguna Cha´ltel (50°S, 71°W). The chronology is based on AMS 14 C age modeling constrained by paleomagnetic secular variations. Chemical and physical properties of the lake water together with results of lake-water surface-temperature monitoring, as well as sediment characteristics reveal conspicuous features archived as different sedimentary carbonate phases and morphologies which are attributed to lake-level changes.Sedimentological, geochemical and biological proxies together suggest the development from an initial playa lake-phase towards a system with progressively rising lake level. In detail, proxies indicate the existence of an ephemeral lake since 4700. cal BP until a glauberite-bearing carbonate crust formed around 4040. cal BP which probably is associated to the globally recognized 4.2. ka event. This crust is interpreted as a desiccation event terminating the ephemeral lake phase. Following this desiccation a shift towards conditions with a positive hydrological balance of Laguna Cha´ltel occurs, which leads to the development of a saline lake with ooid formation between 4040 and 3200. cal BP.
