Holocene vegetation dynamics of Grande Terre (Kerguelen Islands) inferred from sedimentary ancient DNA

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While the Antarctic region has experienced significant climatic changes over the Holocene, few high‐resolution records have examined their effects on the local biota. In order to understand past ecological shifts and forecast future changes, it is important to obtain high‐resolution palaeoecological records from this region.
