Contemporaneousness of Trackway Construction and Environmental Change: A Dendrochronological Study in Northwest-German Mires
Tree rings provide not only a precise dating tool, but also contain information on environmental change. The well replicated tree ring record of northwest Germany therefore provides environmental implications with immanent, absolute and precise dating from 6703 BC to 931 AD. This offers the opportunity to investigate the environmental context of archaeological finds, if they, too, are dated by dendrochronology. We investigated 13 peat-preserved t…
Dendroecological investigations at Venner Moor (northwest Germany) document climate-driven woodland dynamics and mire development in the period 2450—2050 BC
Excellently preserved subfossil pine and oak tree remains from the bottom layer of raised bog peat were dendroecologically investigated at Venner Moor (northwest Germany). Tree-ring analyses were combined with observations of stem and root morphology, preservation state, mineral soil relief, peat stratigraphy and pollen analysis to reconstruct in great detail environmental changes leading to the start of the raised bog formation. Hydrology was id…
Environmental change, bog history and human impact around 2900 b.c. in NW Germany–preliminary results from a dendroecological study of a sub-fossil pine woodland at Campemoor, Dümmer Basin
Subfossil European bog oaks: Population dynamics and long-term growth depressions as indicators of changes in the Holocene hydro-regime and climate
Some 2600 bog oaks have been dated from German, Dutch and Irish bogs covering the period 6000 bc to ad 1000. The ring patterns of these ‘bog oaks’ are characterized by recurrent, long-term growth depressions. In addition, obvious changes in the temporal distribution of the bog-oak trunks throughout the Holocene are found. Both features were probably caused by unfavourable growth conditions, which are most likely linked to changes in site hydrolog…
The climatic interpretation of pan-European signature years in oak ring-width series
Large-scale signature years, in which oak growth across much of northern Europe varies consistently, are identified. Postulating that the likely cause of such widespread departures in growth is climatic, it is shown that these years were characterized by pan-European anomalies in soil-moisture availability, rainfall and temperature, with enhanced growth associated with an extended period of increased soil-moisture availability and reduced growth …
Depositional frequency of German subfossil oaks: Climatically and non-climatically induced fluctuations in the Holocene
A highly resolved record of the depositional frequency of subfossil trees since 8263 bc in the valley of the River Main is presented. Different aspects of forest dynamics are explored including depositional anomal ies (phases of low or zero departures), changes in forest density based on tree growth trend classes (GTCs), and regeneration using mean lifespan (ML) data. This reveals a number of climatically induced environmental changes that are sy…
Revisions and Extension of the Hohenheim Oak and Pine Chronologies: New Evidence About the Timing of the Younger Dryas/Preboreal Transition
Oak and pine samples housed at the Institute of Botany, University of Hohenheim, are the backbone of the early Holocene part of the radiocarbon calibration curve, published in 1993 (Becker 1993; Kromer and Becker 1993; Stuiver and Becker 1993; Vogel et al. 1993). Since then the chronologies have been revised. The revisions include 1) the discovery of 41 missing years in the oak chronology and 2) a shift of 54 yr for the oldest part back into the …
