Palynological investigations in the northern Netherlands (the Drenthe Plateau)

Abstract

The results of c. 50 corings in depressions or small lakes, mostly pingo scars, on the Drenthe Plateau are summarized. Results of sites for which pollen diagrams were prepared are shortly reviewed. Main periods discussed are of Late Glacial, Preboreal and Boreal origin. Some attention has been paid to the Atlantic-Subboreal transition.
