Abstract
Summary Diatom data from Linton Loch show five diatom assemblage zones, together with stratigraphic evidence indicating some aspects of the development of the lake basin during the Flandrian. Results show an early Flandrian dominance of planktonic diatom species in the lake waters with the later development of epiphytic species as the hydrosere encroached. Following deforestation in the catchment, water levels rose in the basin when benthic diatoms became dominant.
