“…Comparison to palaeoenvironmental data from sections on the Kuril Islands, which represent the easternmost area of the SRFE, likewise were characterized by short-term fluctuations during the Holocene (Razjigaeva et al 2013(Razjigaeva et al , 2018(Razjigaeva et al , 2019b. Palynological data from Kuril Lake record do not show parallel trends, although paleomagnetic data are suggestive of short-term variations (Anderson et al 2015).…”

Latvia Lake provides one of the few high-resolution palaeoenvironmental records from southeastern Primor'ye. It traces basin, vegetation and climate histories over the past c. 8.6 ka. The Latvia basin experienced four phases, two of which involved frequent shifts amongst lake, lagoon and bay settings (c. 8.6-7.0 cal. ka BP and c. 2.1 cal. ka BPpresent). A sandbar was present between c. 7.0 and 6.9 cal. ka BP. The longest interval of Latvia basin stability was from c. 6.9-2.1 cal. ka BP when the basin was a lagoon of varying salinities. Quercus-broadleaf forests characterized the regional vegetation throughout the past c. 8.6 ka. Variations in thermophilous species (e.g. Juglans, Carpinus, Ulmus, Tilia, Syringa) and Pinus koraiensis reflect shifts in temperature and moisture during the Middle Holocene. A period of warmest climate occurred c. 8.6-5.1 cal. ka BP with wettest conditions from c. 7.5-4.3 cal. ka BP, although all changes in temperature and precipitation were gradual. The Latvia Lake results indicate that changes in Middle to Late Holocene climates were linked more closely to shifts in the East Asian Summer Monsoon and less so to sea level oscillations. This investigation demonstrates that lakes of coastal Primor'ye can provide reliable palaeovegetation and palaeoclimate records despite their changing depositional environments.

“…ka BP (Fig. 4)) probably incorporates disturbed and undisturbed communities (Razjigaeva et al 2018(Razjigaeva et al , 2019b. The uppermost sediments, marked most clearly by the decline in Quercus pollen percentages, could reflect forestry and agricultural activities in the region.…”
