Land-use history, soil ersosion, lake trophy and lake-level fluctuations during the last 3000 years werereconstructed through a multidisciplinary palaeolimnological study (pollen, plant macrofossils, diatoms,physical and chemical analysis, magnetic measurements and radiometric methods) of a small eutrophiclake in southern Sweden (Bj~resjOsjOn, Scania). There are striking responses in diatom, chemical,sediment yield and magnetic records to land-use changes documented by pollen analysis or historicalsources, and to lake-level changes identified from sedimentary changes. Our multidisciplinary approachassists interpretation of the processes controlling long-term changes and separation of the effects ofdifferent factors (land-use changes, lake-level fluctuations) on individual biostratigraphical records.Climate has controlled processes in the lake indirectly, through lake-level fluctuations, from the LateBronze Age to the Viking Age (700 BC-AD 800). Since the Viking Age, land-use controlled most of thechanges observed in the lake's development and soil erosion processes. Major changes in lake developmentoccurred during the last 200 years, due to a drastic increase in soil erosion and water eutrophicationduring a period of agricultural modernization.
