Human impact on an island ecosystem: pollen data from Sandoy, Faroe Islands

2008-06-01

Abstract excerpt

To investigate the form and dynamics of ecosystems on an isolated island in the North Atlantic before human settlement in the first millennium ad, and the effects of human activities thereafter. The island of Sandoy, Faroes (61°50' N, 6°45' W). Two sequences of lake sediments and one of peat were studied using pollen analysis and sedimentological techniques. Age models were constructed on the basis of radiocarbon...
