A model-based reconstruction of Holocene treeline dynamics in the Central Swiss Alps
2006-01-01
Abstract excerpt
1. We used the forest succession model FORCLIM to simulate Holocene treeline dynamics along an elevational transect in the Central European Alps, in order to explore the extent and cause of changes in treeline altitude and composition. 2. A temperature reconstruction independent of vegetation proxies was used to drive the model, and the simulation results were compared with Holocene pollen and macrofossil records...
