profiles provide insight into postglacial evolution of wetlands related to this landscape. The AA. found clear evidence of the disappearance from the peat of higher vascular species that, today, grows mostly in the plains of Siberia. Correlation of the data
obtained with the accepted chronology of the Holocene events in the Russian Altai suggests the following stages of postglacial environmental change in the Malye Chily River valley : 1) the continuation of the Late Würm glaciation degradation (before 7000
Geochemical characterization of soil organic matter and variability of a postglacial detrital organic supply (Chaillexon Lake, France)
which was created by a rock collapse that dammed the paleovalley of the Doubs River about 12 000 years ago. Since this event, the sediment trap provides a continuous palaeoclimatic record for the Postglacial period. In conclusion, the story

Postglacial vegetation and fire history in the Chirripó Páramo o Costa Rica
Pollen and charcoal analysis of a 5-6 m sediment core from Lago de las Morrenas provides evidence of postglacial vegetation and fire history in the highlands of the Cordillera de Talamanca, Costa Rica. The site is presently surrounded by treeless
Different mountain shapes in sedimentary sequences in the Canadian Rockies were enhanced by glacial erosion and have been modified postglacially by gravity-driven slope processes. Slope modification by both glacial erosion and postglaciation
This paper discusses the distribution and seismostratigraphy of the late glacial and postglacial Quaternary sediments in the region fronting the Grande Rivière de la Baleine entrance, including part of the Manitounuk Sound. The objectives
are to interpret the stratigraphic sequence offshore in terms of the processes of ice retreat and of postglacial sedimentation, to compare the offshore to the onshore stratigraphy and interpret that in terms of processes, and to relate the results to the known
