Holocene climatic changes in Greenland / Bent Fredskild.
Title: | Holocene climatic changes in Greenland / Bent Fredskild. |
Author(s): | Fredskild, Bent. |
Date: | 1996. |
Publisher: | Copenhagen: Danish Polar Center |
In: | Paleo-Eskimo Cultures of Greenland - new perspectives in Greenlandic archaeology. (1996.), Vol. 19 |
Abstract: | Botanical indications of Holocene climatic changes in Greenland are summarized. Most information comes from pollen and macrofossil analyses of lake sediments and peat. Main trend, supported by Ice Cap cores, is clear: in West Greenland, temperature reached that of today c. 6000 BC, to peak some millenia later. In north, increase came later. C. 2000 BC, temperature began to decrease, and with fluctuations became colder until Little Ice Age. In East Greenland increase and decrease were millenium earlier. In central West Greenland sea temperature was higher during mid Holocene. |
