| Title: | Land biotas of the last interglacial/glacial cycle, Jameson Land, East Greenland / O. Bennike, Jens Böcher. |

| In: | Boreas. (1994.), Vol. 23(4) (1994) |
| Abstract: | Macrofossil plant and insect remains from nearshore marine sediments in Jameson Land show that land biotas of last interglacial stage were more diverse than those of Holocene. Rich dwarf shrub heaths with diverse assemblage of ericaceous plants occupied low land areas with copses of Betula pubescens on sheltered sites. Many southern extra-limital species were present and summer temperature was 5°C higher than today. Beetles were of palaearctic type. Some fossils from Hugin Sø interstade point to mean summer temperature 3-4°C lower than today. |
