These samples also yielded a
palynomorph assemblage of 33 taxa of which 17 are gymnospermous and angiospermous pollen grains, 10 are pteridophytic spores, and 4 are fungal spores and hyphae.
Palynomorph and ostracod assemblages are present in this unit and indicate that it is likely of Paleocene to Eocene age [18].
Paleoecology of diasporc- and
palynomorph assemblages from Late Miocene lake sediments (Mataschen near Fehring, East Styria, Austria).
Although 90 pollen and spore taxa were identified in the surface samples, only
palynomorph taxa present at > 1% were included in numerical analyses.
Late Frasnian-Famennian climates based on
palynomorph analyses and the question of the Late Devonian glaciations.
Palynomorph Investigation (LM and SEM): The method was followed by Wodehouse technique Ronald (2000).
Proxy climate and vegetation changes during the last five millennia in NW Iberia: Pollen and non-pollen
palynomorph data from two ombrotrophic peat bogs in the North Western Iberian Peninsula.
At Mangaia, for example, the sediment deposition histories of the 21 cores raised in eight drainages (Ellison 1994) do not conform to Barrau's schema in two aspects: (1) non-conformity between deposition rates and the timing of human actions as inferred from dated changes in
palynomorph frequencies and (2) asynchrony among the cores with respect to signs of prehistoric human actions such as onset of the deposition of clay over peat, thought to represent forest disturbance.
