  1. 11. Local vegetation history of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) in central Scandes (Sweden) since the mid-Holocene

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Pablo Garrido Rodriguez; [2008]
    Keywords : Holocene; Picea abies; pollen analysis; macrofossils; immigration; peat core; west central Scandes;

    Abstract : The former migration theory of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) suggested that spruce established in Sweden along the Swedish Bothnian coast c. 3500 years ago from an eastern refuge area through Finland. READ MORE

  3. 12. Vegetation history and Picea abies (L.) Karst. establishment in the Härjedalen province (central Sweden)

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Eva Rodríguez; [2008]
    Keywords : Picea abies; early-Holocene; central Sweden; pollen analysis;

    Abstract : The traditional theory about Picea abies (L.) Karst. arrival and establishment in Sweden is being revised. Until Picea abies megafossils were radiocarbon dated between the late-Glacial and the mid-Holocene (Kullman, 2000), it was widely accepted that Picea abies established at the Swedish East coast approximately 3500 B.

  4. 13. Holocene relative sea-level changes in the Tasiusaq area, southern Greenland, with focus on the Ta1 and Ta3 basins

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Linda Randsalu; [2008]

    Abstract : Results from an investigation of relative sea-level changes from c. 11,000 cal. yr BP to the present in the Tasiusaq area, Inner Bredefjord, southwest Greenland, are presented in this thesis. Isolation sequences from two small lakes have been identified using stratigraphic analyses, XRF-scanning, loss on ignition and macrofossil analyses. READ MORE

  6. 15. Vegetationsutveckling och mänsklig aktivitet under äldre Stenålder vid Döudden, Arjeplog kommun

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Nina Persson; [2004]
    Keywords : vegetationshistoria;

    Abstract : The landscape in the interior of Norrland has undergone dramatic changes since the deglaciation as a consequence of faultings, earthquakes and tilting of the landscape westwards. Archaeological investigations along former shorelines by the use of models of isostatic land uplift, have revealed many Mesolitic settlements in northern Sweden. READ MORE
