Three principal paleoecological phases are described: the first corresponds to the Upper Paleolithic (Würm III), the period of maximum cold, dominated by Juniperus assemblages. The second phase includes levels from the end of the Mesolithic and early Neolithic. It shows the appearance of mesothermic species such as Buxus sempervirens, Acer sp. and Quercus ilex, at the same time as the development of a thermophilic suite of species e.g. Olea europaea, Rosmarinus officinalis and Pistacia. During this period, the effect of man on the environment remained slight. The third phase consists of the middle Neolithic and more recent periods and reveals the degradation of the environment due to the development of agriculture and animal husbandry. The Garrigue—a mediterranean open human-influenced vegetation—has persisted up to the present.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pons, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">REILLE, M</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The holocene- and upper pleistocene pollen record from Padul (Granada, Spain): A new study</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climatic fluctuations</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holocene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Padul</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pollen analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">vegetation history (PG)</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1988</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">66</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">243-263</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Two borings were made at the site of Padul (Granada). Pollen analysis of 200 spectra from two successive sequences, 14.8 and 8 m deep, enables a description of the vegetational and climatic history of this region, the most southern one in Europe, from Early Würmian times. The chronology is supported by twenty-one 14C dates. Original equivalents are found for the great European Prewürm interstadials. A markedly arid though thermically not extreme episode, exactly equivalent to stage 4 of the marine isotopic stratigraphy, closes this relatively temperate period. The middle part of the Last Glacial shows climatic fluctuations that are poorly characterized, as is often the case in Europe for this period. A long section, very probably corresponding to the complete Last Pleniglacial, does not show any climatic amelioration. Towards 15,000 yr B.P. a change in the diagram is noted that can only be interpreted as reflecting a larger expansion of a regional steppe cover. This event, also reported on three occasions in southeast France, marks the beginning of the Oldest Dryas. The climatic amelioration of ca. 13,000 yr B.P. is far more pronounced here than anywhere else in Europe, whereas that at 10,000 yr B.P. is not so clearly marked. This unexpected result may be accounted for by the fact that Padul is the first continental site so far south and so near Pleniglacial refuges to be known: on the other hand, this result is consistent with what is known from oceanic isotopic stratigraphy. A quite new late-glacial and Holocene vegetational history is revealed, characterized by the early appearance and dominance of Quercus ilex oak forests of a southern type and the early occurrence of Quercus suber and Olea: it is the first account of a complete history of the postglacial reafforestation in a region with a modern semi-arid mediterranean climate. From the palaeoclimatic point of view, it shows that the hot and humid Holocene optimum was attained slightly before 8000 yr B.P. and that the Holocene climatic fluctuations were of but small amplitude.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Van Der Wiel, A M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wijmstra, T A</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Palynology of the 112.8–197.8 m interval of the core Tenaghi Philippon III, Middle Pleistocene of Macedonia</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biostratigraphy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chronostratigraphy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">palynology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">vegetation history (PG)</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1987</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">52</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">89-117</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In this article the palynological record of the Tenaghi Philippon III core (112.8–197.8 m) from the Philippi Plain in Greece is discussed. The arboreal pollen diagrams show an alteration of steppe phases (representing glacial periods) and oak forest phases (coinciding with interglacial periods). A proposal for a local biostratigraphy is given and a preliminary correlation is suggested with the Northwest European subdivision of the Middle Pleistocene. From the AP diagrams it appears that the flora is gradually impoverished in Arcto-Tertiary elements and obtains a more mediterranean character. In this section, however, the real mediterranean forest, rich in Quercus ilex/coccifera type is not yet present, which implies that a warm humid climate dominated with rainfall throughout the year. The presence of a great number of Tertiary pollen, two sterile intervals and clastic sediment in the lower part of the core, while from 181.6 m upwards organic sediment is found, indicates a change in sedimentation regime around a depth of 182 m. The sedimentation regime changed from fluvatile to lacustrine as a result of the aftermath of tectonic events. Chronostratigraphy of the diagrams is based on radiocarbon dates from the TF2 core, paleomagnetic polarity determinations in the TF3 core as well as interpolations between the two. In this way the core was dated at 900,000-approx. 600,000 yr B.P. A correlation with deep-sea Core V28–239 is proposed. From this correlation it appears that both in the diagrams and in the oxygen isotope curve the glacial and interglacial periods of the Middle Pleistocene are of a different wavelength and amplitude as compared to the ones of the Upper Pleistocene.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Beug, Hans-Jürgen</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">On the forest history of the Dalmatian coast</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pollen analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Postglacial</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">vegetation history (PG)</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1967</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1967///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/003466676790156X</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">271 - 279</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The Postglacial history of the vegetation of southern Dalmatia is studied by means of pollen analysis of the lake deposits of the Malo Jezero on the island Mljet.

Superimposing on the herbaceous layer which widely represents the desert-like xerophyte element, the arborescent flora bears the imprint of diverse influences: a typical Mediterranean influence (Quercus ilex, Quercus coccifera, Pinus halepensis, Cedrus cf. atlantica, Oleaceae, Anacardiaceae, Vitis, Argania); an influence undoubtedly of the mountainous zones of the eastern Mediterranean (Alnus, Ulmus, Carpinus betulus, Salicaceae), and finally a tropical influence (Acacia, cf. Sapindaceae). If one should attempt to characterize the three main episodes which the stratigraphy permits one to distinguish in these formations studied on the spot (Lower Ougartian, Middle Ougartian, Upper Ougartian), one can recognize from the Lower Ougartian a relatively dry period both preceded and followed by a more humid phase; during the Middle Ougartian the climatic conditions favourize the simultaneous blooming of Mediterranean species and those of the outer Sahel; the Upper Ougartians remains poorly characterized by a very limited number of pollen grains.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1–4</style></issue></record></records></xml>
