Pollen richness: a reflection of vegetation diversity or pollen-specific parameters?
Our study aims to increase the understanding about the impacts of potential drivers of pollen richness by using a pollen-vegetation modelling approach. We used the Sutton-Prentice dispersal model implemented i...

Circumstantial evidence of non-pollen palynomorph palaeoecology: a 5,500 year NPP record from forest hollow sediments compared to pollen and macrofossil inferred palaeoenvironments
The addition of non-pollen palynomorphs (NPPs) to pollen analytical studies has improved the interpretational frame, especially concerning the local regime in anthropogenically disturbed environments. Using ad...

Late Holocene landscape development around a Roman Iron Age mass grave, Alken Enge, Denmark
Sediments from the small lake Ilsø situated in the Illerup/Alken Enge Valley were studied in order to investigate past landscape development at the time of a probably ritual human mass burial following battle ...

Effects of land use on the fungal spore richness in small crater-lake basins of western Uganda
Mycological tools to estimate the effects of diverse land-use practices on fungal diversity are scarce, because of poor knowledge of the taxonomic diversity of tropical fungi and their response to anthropogeni...

Open AccessQuantitative landscape dynamics in Denmark through the last three millennia based on the Landscape Reconstruction Algorithm approach
This paper explores the spatial and temporal land-cover variability within the main cultural landscape units in Denmark during the last 3,000 years. Quantitative estimates of the cover of trees, grasses, Cerea...

The use of historical analogues for interpreting fossil pollen records
Modern vegetational analogues of palaeo-landscapes, which could be useful for interpreting fossil pollen assemblages, are often not available, because increased human impact all over the world has altered the ...

Wind-determined sediment distribution and Holocene sediment yield in a small, Danish, kettle lake
Sediment distribution was mapped by multiple corings in a small oligotrophic lake in northwestern Denmark. Sediment cores along a representative West-East transect were dated by 14C and correlated using pollen, m...

The sedimentary record of spheroidal carbonaceous fly-ash particles in shallow Danish lakes
Spheroidal carbonaceous particles (SCP) from combustion of oil and coal have been quantified in cores from top sediments of Danish shallow lakes. Chronologies were provided by 210Pb-dating supplemented by measure...
