Late Tertiary
plant macrofossils from localities in Arctic / Subarctic North America: A review of data
Variations in climate can be determined by the analysis of biological data like annual tree rings, fossilized pollen and other
plant macrofossils, the abundance and distribution of insects and other organisms, and the biota in lake sediments.
«Abstract To investigate the Holocene climate and treeline dynamics in the European Russian Arctic, we analysed sediment pollen, conifer stomata, and
plant macrofossils from Lake Kharinei, a tundra lake near the treeline in the Pechora area.
«These include the sharp mud - over-peat contacts that are laterally continuous over 5 kilometers, changes in fossil foraminifera assemblages across the buried peat contacts, long - lasting submergence also derived from fossil foraminifera records, and radiocarbon ages of
plant macrofossils taken from buried peat deposits that are consistent with other southern Cascadia earthquake chronologies derived from buried peat and tsunami deposits.»
