Plant Macrofossils Reveal Aquatic Macrophyte Successions of a Typical Shallow Lake (Huanggai Lake, China) in the Past Century [PDF]
Plants, 2022 Aquatic macrophytes are one of the important biotic components of shallow lake ecosystems. Understanding the long-term evolution of the macrophyte community is crucial for lake management.

A protocol for plant macrofossil analysis of peat deposits [PDF]
Mires and Peat, 2010 Analyses of plant macrofossils can be used to reconstruct the development of the local vegetation on peatlands, and thus to elucidate successional processes.

Late pleistocene exploitation of Ephedra in a funerary context in Morocco [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe active compounds found in many plants have been widely used in traditional medicine and ritual activities. However, archaeological evidence for the use of such plants, especially in the Palaeolithic period, is limited due to the poor preservation and

Long‐distance dispersal of plant macrofossils [PDF]
New Zealand Journal of Botany, 1980 Summary Evidence is presented for the long‐distance transport of leaves or other plant fragments by streams and/or by flotation on lakes and/or by wind. Under some circumstances macroscopic floras could be transported over considerable distances before being deposited and fossilised.

Plant macrofossils from the Shemshak Formation, Rudbar, western Alborz [PDF]
Journal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2021 Plant macrofossils from the Shemshak Formation, Rudbar, western Alborz, collected at two distinct horizons, including horizon 1 (Koushk area) and horizon 2 (northern Rudbar), are examined to determine the relative age and sedimentary environments of the ...

New insights into postglacial vegetation dynamics and environmental conditions of Península Avellaneda, southwest Patagonia, revealed by plant macrofossils and pollen analysis [PDF]
Mires and Peat, 2018 Reconstruction of the history of past events becomes more objective when considering an increased number of possible indicators. Combining plant macrofossil analysis with pollen analysis has the potential to give a more detailed picture of the ...
