“…Koźmin represents a site with a fossil forest that persisted in the YD, in the potentially favourable growing conditions in the floodplain of the Warta River (Dzieduszyńska et al 2014). The Ługi mire represents sites located in the fossil JadwichnaPichna River valley (part of the Warta River valley), which functioned as a proglacial water outflow during the Saalian Glaciation recession and as the main tract of the Warta River Valley in the Late Plenivistulian (Klatkowa and Załoba 1991;Forysiak 2012).…”

ABSTRACT:Pawłowski, D. 2017. The usefulness of subfossil Cladocera remains in Younger Dryas climatic reconstructions in central Poland. Acta Geologica Polonica, 67 (4), 567-584. Warszawa.Cladoceran-based paleotemperature estimates for the Younger Dryas for ten sections of paleo-oxbow lakes, valley mires, and lacustrine sediments from central Poland are presented, and their potential usefulness to climatostratigraphy is described. Most of the changes observed in the cladoceran assemblages are responses to climate changes. The cladoceran-based temperature reconstructions reflect cold conditions during the Younger Dryas (YD) and allow a division of this period into two phases: an older colder phase, between 12,800 and 12,000 cal yrs BP, and a younger, warmer phase, between ca. 12,000 and 11,500 cal yrs BP. The geomorphological features of the study sites and local environmental forces are also taken into consideration. The cladoceran-inferred summer temperature estimates from all of the study sites correspond closely with the available climate reconstruction for the YD in central Europe.

“…It is a well-dated profile whose age has been determined using the radiocarbon method 2014). Radiocarbon conventional ages were determined using the scintillation technique in the Laboratory of Absolute Dating in Skała and in the Laboratory of the Museum of Archaeology and Etnography in Łódź (17 dates of tree trunks and 4 dates of organic silt) while the AMS technique was applied in the Poznań Radiocarbon Laboratory (5 dates of pine and birch remains).…”

“…The data for the trees cover the period since 13 050-12 640 (95.4%) cal BP (MKL-1656) until 12 520-11 770 (95.4%) cal BP (LOD-1402) (Dzieduszyńska et al, 2014). The 14 C ages indicate that the unit was formed during the late Alleröd and the Younger Dryas period.…”

“…It showed short terrestrial events interrupted by flood episodes. Among the terrestrial events was the existence of pine forest which grew in the floodplain of the Warta River for about 140-150 years and died in response to a climatic cooling at the beginning of the Younger Dryas and further deteriorating conditions (Dzieduszyńska et al, 2014). A record of palaeoenvironmental changes registered at the Koźmin Las site from the middle unit deposits is suited to the abrupt environmental changes of the last Late Glacial (Lowe et al, 2001(Lowe et al, , 2008Broecker, 2006).…”

Abstract:Results of OSL dating and sedimentary studies from the profile of the low alluvial terrace of the middle Warta River are presented. The samples were dated using the single-aliquot regenerative method. Dating was used to establish a timing of the Weichselian Late Glacial events in the river valley environment. Stable conditions on the floodplain are expressed by the deposition of organicrich series radiocarbon dated at 12 900-12 600 cal BP and 11 600-10 770 cal BP. Samples for OSL dating were collected from the mineral material deposited during the intensification of flood events during the Weichselian decline. The results obtained for the alluvia range from 12.78 ± 0.62 ka b2k to 14.33 ± 0.74 ka b2k. Sedimentological criteria allowed to distinguish between particular flood events. Overestimation of OSL ages is probably a result of rapidity of environmental changes in that time.

The pa per pres ents the data on an Eemian-Late Gla cial sed i men tary se quence from the Zwierzyniec site, cen tral Po land. A num ber of bore holes doc u ment one or two or ganic lay ers that oc cur be neath one or two ho ri zons of clayey and silty de pos its of ice-dammed lakes. This study dem on strates to which ex tent the Zwierzyniec site can con trib ute to a better un der stand ing of the palaeoenvironmental changes dur ing the Eemian-Vistulian time-frame in cen tral Po land. To study it, a multi-proxy approach was ap plied, in volv ing: palynological and plant macrofossil anal y sis, study of round ing of quartz grains and mor phology of their sur face, and in ves ti ga tions of sand min er al ogy and till pe trog ra phy. The re sults show that a till bed is over lain by a sandy se ries cor re spond ing to the gla cial-inter gla cial tran si tion. Ei ther one or two dis tinct peaks of or ganic ac cu mu la tion are ev i denced by peat ho ri zons. The lower ho ri zon re cords spec tra with ha zel and horn beam, and did, there fore, ac cu mu late in the Eemian. Ob served only in some bore holes, the up per peat ho ri zon marks the BrÝrup (or the lower part of the Rederstall stadial) rep re sented by for est-steppe con di tions with patchy mo sa ics of larch and fur ther tran si tion into sedges and her baceous taxa. Lo cal ized in be tween the two peat se quences, the sandy ho ri zon marks a long-last ing ae olian trans for ma tion with weath er ing by frost in the Early Vistulian. Again, sig nif i cant changes of the palaeoenvironmental re gime oc curred, and are man i fested in the one or two ho ri zons of the glaciolacustrine sed i ments. This cor re sponded to the last gla ci ation in the region, when the ice-dammed lakes formed dur ing the Main Stadial.
