MEGAFOSSIL TREES REVEAL PAST LANDSCAPES OF THE SWEDISH SCANDES

Abstract
<p>The structure and plant species composition of Late-glacial and Early-Holocene landscapes in the Swedish Scandes are poorly understood. Traditional pollen analytical inferences, glacier histories, and textbook narratives are beset with inaccuracies and uncertainties, particularly in high-mountain regions. More direct, robust, and reliable mega- and macrofossil records provide unambiguous evidence of the former early local presence of tree species at specific sites and elevations, far beyond modern treelines</p>
