Holocene vegetation history in the Northern Vosges Mountains (NE France): Palynological, geochemical and sedimentological data

Abstract: Palynological data from the Northern Vosges Mountains (NVM) are very rare, unlike for the Southern and Central Vosges Mountains, where the past vegetation history is relatively well known. As a consequence, the beginning of human activities has never been clearly identified and dated in the NVM. In order to reconstruct the evolution of vegetation in this region, multiproxy studies (pollen, non-pollen palynomorphs, sedimentological and geochemical analyses) were conducted in two peatlands. Overall, the results,… Show more

“…In the area under consideration here, pine (Pinus) and hazelnut (Corylus) forests dominate (reaching 50 and 30% respectively) and this certainly explains why the mixed oak (Quercus) forest is reduced around the peat bog (WAL 1-2). The predominance of pine during the mixed oak phase is observed in all the sequences analysed in the Northern Vosges (Hatt, 1937, Gouriveau et al, 2020. The omnipresence of pine, which is not observed in neighbouring regions, such as the Lorraine Plateau, the Central and Southern Vosges and the Black Forest (Janssen et al, 1975, Ruffaldi, 1999, Rösch, 2000, De Klerk, 2014, is due to the competitiveness of this species compared to hardwoods, such as oak (Quercus) or beech (Fagus), on the very poor and dry…”

“…Vosges sandstone soils (Guillet et al, 1976, Sudhaus and Friedmann, 2015, Gouriveau et al, 2020. Therefore, the presence of numerous sandstone landforms close to the peat bog (within 400 m) can explain the high percentages of pine ( Fig.…”
