Lateglacial environmental variability from Swiss tree rings
Udgivelsesdato: 15 January Evidence of annually resolved environmental variations during the Allerød interstadial is presented using 81 fossil Scots pine tree-ring series from Gaenziloo and Landikon, near Zurich, Switzerland. The absolute age of the trees ranges between 11,920 and 10,610 14 C BP, wh...
