- Observation The area was covered by wetland communities resembling modern pocosins.
- Observation Ericaceae shrubs were characteristic of the wetland communities.
- Observation The reconstructed climate was warm temperate and humid.
- Observation Estimated mean annual temperature was 15.7–17.8 °C.
- Observation Climate during seam formation was broadly homogeneous across the Polish Lowlands.
- Observation The palaeomires were relatively distant from river channels.
- Observation The fossil fungal assemblage indicated dense vegetation on damp swampy soils and shallow water bodies.
- Observation Filamentous green algae occurred in flooded bog depressions.
