Wisconsinan Late-glacial environmental change in southern New England: A regional synthesis
A synthesis of vegetational and climatic history during the Wisconsinan Late‐glacial (13‐9 ka BP) is presented for the southern New England region. The interpretations are based on a number of pollen‐stratigraphical investigations supported by plant macrofossil data. Chronology is based partly on AM...

Zusammenfassung: | A synthesis of vegetational and climatic history during the Wisconsinan Late‐glacial (13‐9 ka BP) is presented for the southern New England region. The interpretations are based on a number of pollen‐stratigraphical investigations supported by plant macrofossil data. Chronology is based partly on AMS dates of plant macrofossils. Reference is made briefly to the controversial nature of the evidence for deglaciation in the region. A curve representing mean July temperature changes in the region during the period 13‐9 ka BP is provided. |
