Short summary
We analyzed sediments from Holzmaar using hyperspectral imaging and geochemistry to track ecosystem responses to rapid warming. We found that while rising temperatures enabled stratification, forest expansion was the decisive trigger for deep-water anoxia by shielding the lake from wind. Holzmaar’s iron-rich geology prevented internal nutrient recycling, allowing immediate recovery once the climate cooled. This proves catchment traits and lithology can override direct climate impacts.
