Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Ferdynandovian 1 was a time of development of tall sedge swamps.
- Observation The presence of Najas marina and N. minor suggests high levels of eutrophication.
- Observation The occurrence of Zannichellia palustris indicates habitats of variable water level and high salt content.
- Observation In the terminocratic phase of Ferdynandovian 1, the communities showed the reoccurrence of Betula nana, B. humilis and Larix sp.
- Observation In the terminocratic phase of Ferdynandovian 1, thermophilous trees disappeared from the communities.
- Observation In the terminocratic phase of Ferdynandovian 1, succession processes intensified, linked to climate cooling.
- Observation During Ferdynandovian 2, aquatic vegetation communities had the highest share of thermophilous taxa, including the extinct Aldrowanda borysthenica, Brasenia borysthenica and Scirpus atroviroides and Cyperus glomeratus.
- Observation Another cooling in the Sanian 2 (Elsterian 2) glaciation is indicated by the development of peat communities with numerous Carex sp., Menyanthes trifoliata, Eriophorum vaginatum and Andromeda polifolia.
- Observation The identified species included Brasenia borysthenica, Aldrovanda borysthenica, Caulinia macrosperma, Potamogeton praemaackianus, Scirpus atroviroides, Cyperus glomeratus, Eleocharis praemaximoviczii, Nymphaea cinerea and Ranunculus gailensis.
