Abstract
The Holocene history of lake levels, vegetation, fire, and cultural land-use was established for two sites of south-central Sweden. Lake-level reconstructions were based on pollen, macrofossil, and sedimentologic data from multiple cores in each lake. Vegetation history was interpreted from fossil-pollen data from radiocarbon-dated sediment cores. Regional and local fire histories were determined from microscopic and macroscopic fossil charcoal from each lake. Comparisons of lake-level records and with glacier fluctuations in western Norway suggests that in Scandinavia the early Holocene was characterized by a strong north-south gradient in moisture balance, and the mid-Holocene dry period was time-transgressive from northwest to southeast over a period of about 2000 years
