Mid-to-Late Holocene Climate and Ecological Changes over Europe

In this project a complex experimental framework consisting of climate and ecological models at different temporal and spatial resolution and proxy reconstructions has been developed. The main goal of the research was to reconstruct climatic and ecological conditions during the mid-to-late Holocene, from 7000 years ago to present days. The work covered different areas, from the global to the local scale, with a main focus on Europe.

This dissertation project was successfully completed within the Research Group A-2 The political ecology of non-sedentary communities of the Excellence Cluster 264 Topoi.
