  1. 1. Tracing Characteristics of Two Water Hole Features with Multiproxy Analysis : Using Soil Chemistry, Archaeobotany and Entomology

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för idé- och samhällsstudier

    Author : Johanna Kantak; [2023]
    Keywords : Water wells; Macrofossils; Soil chemistry; NiR; MS; XRF;

    Abstract : En omfattande multiproxyanalys har utförts på provtagningar från två vattenhål belägna i Skåneregionen i Sverige. Denna mångsidiga analys involverade flera aspekter, inklusive markkemi, entomologi, mikrofossiler och makrofossiler. Resultaten från markkemianalysen avslöjade betydande skillnader mellan de två vattenhålen. READ MORE

  3. 2. A palaeoecological study of the establishment of beech forest in Söderåsen National Park, southern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Maja Damber; [2020]
    Keywords : Odensjön; southern Sweden; palaeoecology; pollen; macrofossils; lake sediments; Fagus sylvatica; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Denna studie fokuserar på en sedimentsekvens som hämtats från Odensjön, i Söderåsens nationalpark i Skåne, södra Sverige. Den undersökta sekvensen, som täcker de översta 86 cm av sedimenten, är unik på grund av dess väldigt tydliga årsvarv, som har möjliggjort en precis datering (Hertzman in prep.). READ MORE

  4. 3. Evidence for birch forests and a highly productive environment near the margin of the Fennoscandian ice sheet in the Värriötunturit area, northeastern Finland

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Fredrik Bogren; [2019]
    Keywords : Early Holocene; productive ice-marginal environment; subarctic birch forests; plant macrofossils; pollen; palaeoenvironmental reconstructions; palaeoclimate reconstructions; Värriötunturit; Kuutsjärvi; northeastern Finland; northern Fennoscandia;

    Abstract : High-resolution records of early Holocene deposits are rare, and as a consequence reconstruction of terrestrial environments very soon after the deglaciation has often been difficult. In this study the palaeoenvironmental conditions of early Holocene (c. 10600-7500 cal. READ MORE

  5. 4. PLANT MIGRATION AT THE END OF THE WEICHSELIAN GLACIATION : Macrofossil evidence of early coniferous trees at two northern Swedish sites

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Karan Zakrzewski-Sharma; [2019]
    Keywords : Scandinavia; Weichselian; plant migration; macrofossils; climate change;

    Abstract : Studies of vegetation history bring a new incentive to our understanding of plant survival and migration in arctic environments. For decades, environmental research was based on palynological data and these studies created a notion that tree species such as larch (Larix sibirica) and Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) did not grow in northern Scandinavia at the end of Weichselian glaciation.

  6. 5. Impact of southern Baltic sea-level changes on landscape development in the Verkeån River valley at Haväng, southern Sweden, during the early and mid Holocene

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Anette Nilsson Brunlid; [2018]
    Keywords : sea-level change; Littorina Sea; Baltic Sea; Ancylus Lake; environmental reconstruction; Holocene; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : In the Hanö bay off the coast at Haväng in SE Scania, southern Sweden, a submerged and well-preserved Mesolithic landscape is found, including remains of trees, river and lagoon sediments, and archaeological artefacts such as an antler pick axe and stationary fishing constructions. The landscape was formed during the Yoldia Sea (11,700-10,800 cal BP) and Initial Littorina Sea (9800-8500) low-water phases of the Baltic Basin. READ MORE
