| Description | The Holocene vegetation development of the Western Carpathians is so far known only fragmentarily from palynologically investigated localities situated in the northern part of the region. Therefore we intended to sample new paleoecological profiles from the entire region. Lake sediments are the most interesting due to their potential for multi-proxy analyses approach. The origin and development of the Western Carpathian lakes are reflected in their geological and environmental diversity. The investigated localities are situated in the southern part of the Carpathian arch on the border with the Pannonian Basin. Lake sediments of the studied localities show global changes at the transition of the Glacial and the Holocene, increasing human impact during the Holocene period. |
