Advisor: Radforth, Norman W.
Department: Biology
Keywords: pollen analysis;peat;heath;biology
Publication Date: Oct-1949
Abstract: Peat from a treeless "barrens" of the forest-tundra transition has been studied by the method or pollen analysis. The frequencies of various fossil pollens at successively greater depths of the peat deposits have been determined and presented in pollen diagrams, whose use is discussed in the study or the characteristics, vegetational history and development of the terrain. Illustrated with photographs of the terrain and photomicrographs of microfossils.
