Реферат: | eng: Radiocarbon-dated pollen and diatom records from Lake Kotokel in southern Siberia help to reconstruct the environmental history of the area since ∼ 47 kyr BP. Pollen spectra composition and reconstructed biome scores suggest predominance of a tundra-steppe vegetation and variable woody cover (5-20%) between ∼ 47 and 30 kyr BP, indicating generally a harsh and unstable climate during this interval, conventionally regarded as the interstadial within the last glacial. The short-term climate amelioration episodes in the glacial part of the records are marked by the peaks in taiga and corresponding minima in steppe biome scores and appear synchronously with the hemispheric temperature and precipitation changes recorded in the Greenland ice cores and Chinese stalagmites. Transition to full glacial environments occurred between 32 and 30 kyr BP. The interval at ∼ 30-24 kyr BP was probably the driest and coldest of the whole record, as indicated by highest scores for steppe biome, woody coverage < 5%, absence of diatoms and reduced size of the lake. A slight amelioration of the regional climate at ∼ 24-22 kyr BP was followed by a shorter than the previous and less pronounced deterioration phase. The late-glacial (∼ 17-11.65 kyr BP) is marked by a gradual increase in tree/shrub pollen percentages and re-appearance of diatoms. After 14.7 kyr BP the climate became warmer and wetter than ever during ∼ 47-14.7 kyr BP, resulting in the deepening of the lake and increase in the woody coverage to 20-30% ∼ 14.5-14 kyr and ∼ 13.3-12.8 kyr BP. These two intervals correspond to the Meiendorf and Allerød interstadials, which until now were interpreted as part of the undifferentiated Bølling/Allerød interstadial complex in the Lake Baikal region. The increase in tundra biome scores and pronounced change in the diatom composition allow (for the first time) the unambiguous identification of the Younger Dryas (YD) in the Lake Baikal region at ∼ 12.7-11.65 kyr BP, in agreement with the formal definition and dating of the YD based on the Greenland NGRIP ice core records. The maximal spread of the taiga communities in the region is associated with a warmer and wetter climate than the present prior to ∼ 7 kyr BP. This was followed by a wide spread of Scots pine, indicating the onset of modern environments. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.
