A climate model from 200 AD to 1200 AD for the Hautes-Fagnes plateau (East Belgium) : based on pollen grains, testate amoebae, and humification analyses
[en] Several peat cores were extracted from the Misten bog, on the Hautes-Fagnes plateau (East Belgium). Analyses of pollen grains, testate amoebae and the degree of peat humification have been standardised and combined into a palaeo-hydro-climatic model from 200 AD to 1200 AD. The reconstruction shows 9 distinctive phases of near-surface water tables, which may be used to infer changes in the atmospheric water balance of eastern Belgium during the Subatlantic stage.
