LIMPACS is an IGBP/PAGES Focus V project. Focus V is concerned with “Past human-environment interactions”, and LIMPACS deals with lakes.

The programme is designed to assess how and why lakes have changed, are changing and might change in the future as a result of human activity.

PAGES Focus 5 Past Ecosystem Processes and Human-Environment Interactions aimed to unravel the complex interactions between human activities, climate, and environmental processes.

It promoted the integrated use of environmental archives (e.g. sediments and tree-rings), archaeological data (e.g. habitation artifacts), documented histories (e.g. land use inventories) and instrumental records (e.g. meteorology, long term ecosystem monitoring).
