Abstract

Biostratigraphical studies on palaeoenvironmental changes have been carried out on sediments from 12 basins in the central part of Bohuslan, southwestern Sweden.Diatom, pollen and radiocarbon analysis have been applied to reconstruct a shore displacement curve for the region.The palaeoenvironmental changes contemporary with the Pleistocene/Holocene boundary and the Holocene transgression maximum have been of special interest.
