Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Veronica A Hamilton"

  • - Veronica A Hamilton's recent research focuses on the ecological monitoring of diatoms in the context of climate change, particularly within boreal peatlands.
  • - The 2023 article, "A Voucher Flora of Diatoms from Fens in the Tanana River Floodplain, Alaska," highlights the impact of climate and human activity on these ecosystems and emphasizes the importance of diatom identification for effective biomonitoring.
  • - Hamilton's findings suggest that consistent and reliable identification methods for diatoms are crucial to understanding the alterations in the structure and function of peatland environments due to environmental changes.
