Palaeovegetation-model comparisons: climate change and tree succession in Scandinavia over the past 1500 years.
The effects of climate change on the distribution and management of Picea abies in southern Scandinavia.
Databases and their application
During the past 20 years, several pollen database cooperatives have been established. These databases are now constituent databases of the Neotoma Paleoecology Database, a public domain, multiproxy, relational database designed for Quaternary-Pliocene fossil data and modern surface samples. The pollen database cooperatives have set standards for data quality control and for taxonomic nomenclature and synonymy. The Neotoma database is a secure archive for palynological data, and it is essential cyberinfrastructure for paleoenvironmental research. Applications range in scale from local studies to global-scale biome mapping and paleoclimatic reconstructions
