Abstract: | After the deglaciation (ca. 12000 yr B.P.), climate of the Eastern Fennoscandian territory varied. Changes in both temperature and moisture content lead to vegetative successions and changes in soil formation. Though fossil soils are rare in Eastern Fennoscandia, numerous traces of paleoenvironments are detected in soil profiles. We propose that in most cases climatic, water level, and vegetative changes were relatively rapid. A new soil profile started its development, while the older one remained practically untouched. |
