Morphological diversity of Quercus fossil pollen in the northern South China Sea during the last glacial maximum and its paleoclimatic implication. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 We aimed to obtain high resolution vegetation data and climate information about the LGM in the inland of the northern SCS based on key pollen types. Dominant Quercus fossil pollen grains in the core from the continental shelf of the northern SCS have ...

An Updated Review of Fossil Pollen Evidence for the Study of the Origin, Evolution and Diversification of Caribbean Mangroves [PDF]
Plants, 2023 Recently, the evolutionary history of the Caribbean mangroves has been reconsidered using partial palynological databases organized by the time intervals of interest, namely Late Cretaceous to Eocene for the origin, the Eocene–Oligocene transition for ...

Morphology and ultrastructure of Tilioideae pollen: how to differentiate Craigia, Mortoniodendron, and Tilia [PDF]
Botanical StudiesAssigning fossil Tilioideae pollen grains to the extant genera Craigia, Mortoniodendron, and Tilia is difficult. Firstly, the pollen from these genera appears similar when studied only with light microscopy.

A ready-to-use version of the Eurasian modern pollen database 2 (EMPD 2; Davis et al., 2020) for paleoclimatic reconstructionsPANGAEA [PDF]
Data in BriefPollen-based paleoclimatic reconstructions based on calibration or analogue techniques require large collections of modern pollen samples, which together contain a very high number of pollen taxa.
