Description
Summary:Full palynological dataset from Colle Gnifetti glacier in the Monte Rosa Massif (Swiss Alps;45°55'45.7'' N, 7°52'30.5'' E; 4450m a.s.l.) The dataset contains raw counts for pollen, ferns, NPP (Non-pollen palynomorphs), microscopic charcoal concentrations. Ice core depths are given as m weq = meters waterequivalent. Chronology is based on Jenk et al. (2009) and Sigl et al. (2018). "yr. BP" indicates "years before present" with "present" defined as 1950 CE. Further information on the dataset is given in the paper "Alpine glacier reveals ecosystem impacts of Europe’s prosperity and peril over the last millennium" by Brugger et al. published in Geophysical Research Letters.
