Abstract
Glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) are microbial membrane-spanning lipids that are produced in a variety of environments. To better understand the potentially confounding effect of soil chemistry on the temperature relationship of branched GDGTs (brGDGTs), isoprenoid GDGTs (isoGDGTs) and GDGT-based proxies MBT’5ME and TEX86, soils from 6 elevation transects (mean
