abstract = {Lacustrine sediment sequences were obtained from Lagunas
Verde and Gemelas Este, two small lakes located east of the
southern Patagonian Ice Field and close to the village of El
Chaltén, in Argentinian Patagonia. Four tephra layers were
identified in each of the short sediment sequences and
characterised using individual glass-shard tephra chemistry
to determine provenance. Bulk sediment geochemistry and
diatom assemblages were analysed to understand the impact of
the tephra deposits on the lake ecosystems. Age-depth models
for the cores were established by 137Cs and 210Pb dating.
Tephra deposits in Laguna Gemelas Este were dated to AD
1986–1998, 1943–1968, 1927–1955, and 1849–1892, and
the tephra deposits in Laguna Verde were dated to AD
1940–1970, 1888–1934, 1871–1920, and 1536–1669, the
latter interval determined by extrapolation. All tephras had
similar geochemical composition and originated from
volcanoes in the northern Austral Volcanic Zone. Tephra
units were attributed to known historical eruptions and all
but one, most likely, were from Lautaro Volcano (49°01′S;
73°33′W). The age of the youngest tephra (AD 1986–1998)
from Laguna Gemelas Este points to Viedma Volcano
(49°22′S; 73°19′W) as a possible source. Volcanic
eruptions had a larger impact on Laguna Verde than on Laguna
Gemelas Este, as expressed by changes in δ15N values and
diatom communities during tephra deposition. These shifts
are explained by perturbations of the nitrogen cycle in the
lake, associated with shifts in lacustrine primary
production. Primary producers may have been affected by
increased water turbidity caused by the ash fall, and
consequently, used less nitrogen. Diatom assemblages in
Laguna Verde showed marked reductions in numbers of
planktonic/tychoplanktonic taxa, in favour of
epiphytic/benthic diatom taxa, when tephra was deposited.
This contrasts with Laguna Gemelas Este, in which
epiphytic/benthic diatom species were generally more
abundant and decreases in abundances of
planktonic/tychoplanktonic taxa were not as strongly linked
to tephra layers as in Laguna Verde. At Laguna Gemelas Este,
flatter relief, greater fetch and/or drier climate may have
contributed to generally less ecosystem variability,
resulting in seemingly less environmental response to
volcanic eruptions than in Laguna Verde.},
