| Summary: | A foraminiferal stratigraphy primarily based on the late Axel Nørvangs material from the Skærumhede I boring has been made. Foraminifera from the marine Skærumhede sequence show a faunal succession from an arctic environ-ment (zone N4) to deep water boreal and boreo-lusitanian conditions (zone N3). This is succeeded by a zone (N2) containing a faunal transition from a shallow water boreal assemblage in its lower part through to boreo-arctic conditions in its upper part, and finally a zone (Nl) reflecting mainly arctic environment. It is argued that zone N4 represents the Late Saalian, zone N3 the Eemian and zones N2 and Nl the Early |
