dc.description.abstract | A review of published stratigraphic records of pollen, sediment grain size, diatoms, and organic matter composition from Lake Biwa, Japan, identifies four pre-Holocene episodes of milder climate, increased surface runoff, and enhanced aquatic productivity, indicating intervals of warmer and wetter conditions which are interpreted as being interglacial. Correlation of these episodes to times of marine interglacial periods revises the age scale of the Lake Biwa sediment sequence which has been based on fission-track dating. The revised chronostratigraphic scale proposes an age of ca. 430,000 yr B.P. for the base of the 250-m-thick T Bed instead of the former age of ca. 700,000 yr B.P. | en_US |
