Tracking Late Holocene climate change and the 1908 Tunguska impact event from lake sediments in Central Siberia

D. Y. Rogozin, L. B. Nazarova, N. A. Rudaya et al., 2025. Quaternary Research 125, 1–19.

A 2,200-year core from Lake Zapovednoye near the event site, analysed for geochemistry, pollen, chironomids, Cladocera and diatoms. Finds a layer rich in terrigenous elements at about 1908, presumably soil erosion after the tree fall, and a fall in chironomid and cladoceran diversity that recovered in 6–10 years.
