Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Studies in Denmark and England have demonstrated a link between the stratigraphy of lowland raised mires and past climatic change. Recent work has indicated the potential for proxy climatic records from upland blanket mires. In a new study, radiocarbon dating of changes in the degree of humification of peat from blanket mires in the British Isles appears to show a change to wetter conditions around 1400 BP. Five sites, from western Ireland to North Yorkshire, all show this change. These data reinforce other evidence for climatic change in north-west Europe in the mid-first millennium AD. Au(abr) | ||
