Digitised pollen data
Main content
Below are the spreadsheets of percentage data digitised from published pollen diagrams. These data form part of the basis of numerical analyses to estimated turnover in the last interglacial (Eemian) stage (see Felde et al. 2019 doi:10.1007/s00334-019-00726-5). The data underwent taxonomic harmonisation and recalculation to a base of 100% prior to being used in the analyses.
Please be aware that there are a number of sources of error with digitised data so they should not be relied upon to be a precise record.
