Plant macrofossils in Quaternary lake sediments
von Hilary H BirksIn this work the palaeoecological importance of studying plant macrofossils like seeds, fruits, leaves, etc. preserved in Quaternary lake sediments is reviewed. The studies demonstrate the value of macrofossils in reconstructing past lake conditions, water level, water chemistry, and regional climate. Changes in the distribution and abundance of aquatic plants, so clearly demonstrated by macrofossil evidence are discussed.
