Description
Summary:The present study deals with the results of palaeobotanic research on lacustrine deposits recorded in a borehole at Poznań, near Kock. The results of pollen analysis allowed the author to describe an interglacial vegetational succession. The following six phases of vegetation have been distinguished: pine-birch forests, birch-pine forests. Pine-spruce·alder forests, fir-hornbeam forests, pine-birch forests and forest tundra. Vegetational changes allowed to infer about climatic changes and to determine the age of deposits studied have been the Mazovian Interglacial.
