Quantitative reconstruction of paleoclimate in central Japan for the past 158,000 years based on a modern analogue technique of pollen composition

摘要

In this study, quantitative climate information for central Japan for the past 158 ka is reconstructed on the basis of pollen composition data of NJ88 core from Lake Nojiri and those of TKN-2004 core from the lacustrine Takano Formation using a modern analogue technique. Reconstructed values at the sites around 36.6 degrees N and 700 m altitude are as follows.
