Contributions of Quaternary botany to modern ecology and biogeography
HJB Birks - Plant Ecology & Diversity, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
ABSTRACT Quaternary (last 2.6 million years) botany involves studying plant megafossils

Patterns and dynamics of European vegetation change over the last 15,000 years
Aim Palaeoecological reconstructions document past vegetation change, with estimates of
fast shifts in species distributions. The resulting rates of plant spread are often not matched …

The origin of grasslands in the temperate forest zone of east-central Europe: long-term legacy of climate and human impact
The post-glacial fate of central European grasslands has stimulated palaeoecological
debates for a century. Some argued for the continuous survival of open land, while others …
