Vegetation and climate since the last interglacial in the Vienne area (France)
International audience Biomes and climate reconstructions are based on variations of the pollen content of the sediments. Pollen analysis was conducted on sediment deposits sampled at Chantemerle site (Vienne department, France). The pollen diagram covered only the last 7200 years BP. Consequently,...
