Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: A 95 m core from Moormerland, Leer District (Lower Saxony / Germany), was investigated by pollen analysis. The pollen record is focused on organic layers at 90–88 m, around 70 m, and 57–45 m. The pollen assemblage is a mixture of Pliocene and Pleistocene pollen types, with Pinus dominating, but Taxodium-type, Nyssa, Liquidambar, Eucommia, Carya, Sciadopitys, Tsuga and others also participating as Pliocene elements, as well as Quercus, Ulmus, Taxus, and others as Pleistocene elements. Wetlands and swamp forests under a warm climate are represented.
