Holocene environmental history on the eastern slope of the Polar Ural Mountains, Russia

Late Glacial to Holocene paleoenvironmental change on the northwestern Pacific seaboard, Kamchatka Peninsula (Russia)

“…The reconstructed forest tundra/boreal woodland vegetation is indicated by the presence of Larix pollen in low but significant proportions (0.5-3%). This interpretation is supported by studies on surface pollen representation across the Russian Arctic (e.g., Jankovská et al, 2006) indicating strong underrepresentation of Larix pollen compared to its occurrence on the landscape. The presence of Larix treesa taxon that was, and still is, confined to Kamchatka's more continental interior (Dirksen et al, 2013) -suggests that the climate of Kamchatka's eastern seaboard at this time was more continental than during the Holocene.…”

Extinction of the woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius) and woolly rhinoceros (Coelodonta antiquitatis) in Eurasia: Review of chronological and environmental issues

“…Larch and birch began to penetrate the Polar Urals and northern parts of western Siberia at c . 9800 yr BP (Andreev et al 2001; Forman et al 2002; Jankovská et al 2006). Peat accumulation in the arctic region of West Siberia started at c .…”

“…This was a time of transition from open dry tundra-steppe landscapes to the emergence of foresttundra and peat bogs. Larch and birch began to penetrate the Polar Urals and northern parts of western Siberia at c. 9800 yr BP (Andreev et al 2001;Forman et al 2002;Jankovsk´a et al 2006). Peat accumulation in the arctic region of West Siberia started at c. 11 600-10 700 yr BP, while it intensified in the early Holocene, c. 9500 yr BP (Peteet et al 1998: p. 122).…”
