::A. Explanation of composite organism

::*review (2020): "Lichens redefined as complex ecosystems"

:::*suggested redefinition of lichen: a self-sufficient ecosystem formed by the interaction of a thallus-forming fungus, an extracellular arrangement of one or more photosynthetic partners, and a variable number of other microorganisms.{{sfn|Hawksworth|Grube|2020|pp=1281–1283}}

::*proposal of modified definition of lichen, "integrating aspects put forward by Ainsworth et al. (1971), Hawksworth (1988), Honegger (1991, 2012), Goward (1994), Kirk et al. (2008), and Hawksworth and Grube (2020)."{{sfn|Lücking|Leavitt|Hawksworth|2021}}

::::"A lichen is a stable, self-supporting association of a fungus or fungal-like organism, the primary mycobiont, and a morphologically undifferentiated, unicellular to filamentous alga and/or a cyanobacterium, the primary (and secondary) photobiont, along with obligately associated elements of the fungal and bacterial microbiome contained therein. The phenotype of the mycobiont in the lichenized state (the exhabitant) typically functions as a greenhouse around the photobiont (the inhabitant), the mechanical, physiological and evolutionary properties of the symbiosis thereby exhibiting analogies with agriculture."{{sfn|Lücking|Leavitt|Hawksworth|2021}}

::G. Lichenometry

::{{Main|Lichenometry}}

:::Lichenometry is a geochronological method that estimates the age of exposed rock surfaces by measuring lichen growth rates, predominantly applied in high latitude and mountainous environments. This dating technique, though innovative in its approach, encounters several limitations and challenges. One of the primary issues is the variability in growth rates of lichens, which can be influenced by environmental factors such as climate, altitude, and substrate type. This variability often leads to inaccuracies in age estimation, making lichenometry less reliable compared to other dating methods. While age estimates obtained by lichenometry should be interpreted with caution, it can provide valuable information when combined with other dating techniques, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of geological and historical timelines.{{sfn|Winchester|2023}}
