Pollen-based land-cover reconstruction - model testing and its implications for Holocene environmental change studies

Name:	Pollen-based land-cover reconstruction - model testing and its implications for Holocene environmental change studies
Researchers:	Werchan (roz. Obstová) Barbora (member in research team)
Provider:	Grantová agentura České republiky
Number:	P504/12/0649
Realization from:	2012
Realization to:	2015
Summary:	This project aims to reconstruct land cover during the past 200 years in model areas of Central Europe in order to test the landscape reconstruction algorithm (LRA) with high-resolution historical data. After successfully tested and parameterized, the LRA can reconstruct the key stages of postglacial landscape and vegetation development with higher signicance, and thus circumvent biases created by the direct interpretation of palynological records.
