Abstract
- A shift in vegetation community is recorded in northwest Iceland in response to cool climate c. 8800-8100 cal. yr BP.
- Betula pubescens woodland development was disrupted and a more open vegetation community took hold.
- Colder springs/summer temperatures may have caused a significant decrease in pollen production from terrestrial plants.
- Terrestrial Icelandic multi-proxy records can provide insight into Holocene climate variability in the North Atlantic.
