Abstract
The results of the study of carbonate-containing bottom sediments from the shallow brackish Lake Itkul (Western Siberia) are presented. The research methods include X-ray diffractometry (XRD), IR spectroscopy, laser granulometry, elemental analysis, etc. By the modeling of XRD carbonate profiles with the Pearson VII function, carbonate phases were identified and their quantitative ratios were determined. By the comparing of carbonate record with lithological, geochemical data in a dated sedimentary section, the evolution of the lake basin in the Holocene caused of climatic changes was reconstructed. Mineralogical signals of the global climatic event known as Bond event 4 in the South of West Siberia have been discovered.
