Abstract
Though chironomid head capsule counts were low, we tentatively applied the MAT function to published Holocene chironomid data from Lake Barrine, northeast Queensland. The results suggest only minor temperature change through the last 9000 years. Based on other proxies, this appears to result in realistic temperature reconstructions. Consequently we highlight that sub-fossil chironomids have the potential to provide high quality temperature records for the Australian tropics.
