Alternanthera; Tribulus; atmospheric precipitation; botanical composition; data collection; ecosystems; fossils; grazing intensity; landscapes; pollen; savannas; soil sampling; Southern Africa
Abstract:
... Understanding vegetation–modern pollen relationships is essential to provide confidence in fossil pollen reconstructions of long-term vegetation changes in savanna ecosystems. In this paper we compare the taxonomical composition and the diversity (Hill N0, N1, N2) of vegetation and modern pollen along precipitation and local grazing-intensity gradients in Namibian savannas. Modern pollen was extra ...

Abstract:
... The Boguchan floristic assemblage from the Middle Tsagayan subformation of the Zeya–Bureya Basin (Russian Far East) is Paleocene in age according to both palaeobotanical (palynological and plant megafossil) studies and isotope dating of the plant-bearing deposits. It comes from two localities situated in the vicinity of Arkhara Village. The Boguchan assemblage includes 48 fossil plant species belo ...

Araucaria; Cretaceous period; Cupressaceae; Ericales; basins; conifers; flora; fossils; leaves; microorganisms; new combination; Europe
Abstract:
... The fossil megaflora of the Březno beds s.s. (fine-grained mudstone-dominated facies, as opposed to the coarse-grained facies of the so-called Chlomek or Chloumek beds, both constituting the Březno Formation s.l.) is investigated on the basis of 38 specimens, 31 of them coming from Březno. The other localities are Podlesí (Waldek or Valdek), Opatovice nad Labem, and Vršovice u Loun. The most commo ...

Abstract:
... An investigation of new material and reappraisal of an existing taxon from the Lower Devonian Pingyipu Group, in Jiangyou County, Sichuan have yielded four new genera. They include unequivocal records of rhyniophytes in southern China: Jiangyounia gengi gen. et sp. nov. has a naked pseudomonopdial stem with tangentially extended, oval, terminal sporangia, while in Polycladophyton gracilis gen. et ...

Pinaceae; Poaceae; centrifugation; charcoal; grains; herbaria; microfossils; morphs; palynology; pollen; sieving; sonication; staining; surface area; syringes
Abstract:
... Centrifugation and sieving are essential techniques used in standard preparations of pollen and other palynological material. However, multiple centrifugation steps can potentially damage delicate palynomorphs and other microfossils, and the process of decanting after centrifugation can lead to loss of material. Traditional sieves often have a large surface area which makes manipulating smaller sa ...

Abstract:
... A maximum Holocene afforestation occurred during the Atlantic phase in Central Europe and the first deforestation was human-induced by introducing Neolithic farming. However, the results of new multidisciplinary off-site and on-site investigations in southern Poland have revealed that in the loessic areas a persistence of plant and animal species of open landscape was possible throughout the mid-H ...

It was found that both the wells penetrated the most important source and seal rocks of the Sicilian region (Noto and Streppenosa formations), previously assigned to the Late Triassic-Early Jurassic, deposited with ...

Abstract:
... The Holocene vegetation dynamics of low- and mid-altitude areas of inland Iberia remain largely unknown, masking possible legacy effects of past land-use on current and future ecosystem trajectories. Here we present a 4000-year long palaeoecological record (pollen, spores, microscopic charcoal) from a mire located in the Cabañeros National Park (Toledo Mountains, central Spain), a region with key ...
