THE PALYNOLOGY CONTRIBUTION IN PALAEOENVIRONMENT INVESTIGATION. A CASE-STUDY OF A LATEGLACIAL-HOLOCENE SEDIMENTARY SEQUENCE NEAR BOLOGNA (NORTHERN ITALY)

EQA, 2017
The palynological studies are extremely relevant in the investigation of the evolution of palaeoenvironments. A case of pedopalynological studies was applied to the Lateglacial to Holocene sedimentary sequence derived from a small site located in San ...

Climate and Species Traits Drive Changes in Holocene Forest Composition Along an Elevation Gradient in Pacific Canada

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Projected changes in climate are expected to shift the ranges of many tree species poleward and to higher elevations. Here, we examine past changes in forest composition in Pacific Canada using a paleoecological approach and investigate the role of past ...

Floral Resource Partitioning between Centris (Heterocentris) analis (Fabricius, 1804) and Centris (Heterocentris) terminata Smith, 1874 (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Centridini), in an Urban Fragment of the Atlantic Forest

Sociobiology, 2017
The knowledge on plant species used for the collection of floral resources is crucial to understanding interactions between plants and bees. The aim of the present study was to identify floral resources used by Centris analis and Centris terminata to ...

The Integrated Use of Dendrochronological Data and Paleoecological Records From Northwest European Peatlands and Lakes for Understanding Long-Term Ecological and Climatic Changes—A Review

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Our overall understanding of long-term climate dynamics is largely based on proxy data generated from archives such as ice cores, ocean sediments, tree rings, speleothems, and corals, whereas reconstructions of long-term changes in vegetation and ...

A Continuous Palynological Record of Forest Clearing at Rano Kao (Easter Island, SE Pacific) During the Last Millennium: Preliminary Report

Quaternary, 2019
Easter Island (Rapa Nui) deforestation has traditionally been viewed as a single event, synchronous in time and space across the island and caused by Polynesian settlers.

Pollen spectrum of propolis samples from São Paulo State, Brazil - doi: 10.4025/actascianimsci.v35i3.18389

Acta Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2013
The pollen spectrum of propolis is a good indicative of the phytogeographical origin of the bee product and the local flora available for bee visiting. The present study aimed to perform pollen analysis of propolis produced by Apis mellifera L., in the ...
