Vegetation response to abrupt climate changes in Western Europe from 45 to 14.7k cal a BP: the Bergsee lacustrine record (Black Forest, Germany)
ABSTRACT Between 45 and 14.7k cal a BP, the North Atlantic climate was characterized by a succession of short‐lived Greenland Stadials (GS)/Interstadials (GI), which impacted terrestrial environments. We present a new pollen record from the Bergsee (47°34′20″N, 7°56′11″E), which was ice free during...

ABSTRACT Between 45 and 14.7k cal a BP, the North Atlantic climate was characterized by a succession of short‐lived Greenland Stadials (GS)/Interstadials (GI), which impacted terrestrial environments.
