摘要
After the deglaciation (ca. 12000 yr B.P.), climate of the Eastern Fennoscandianterritory varied. Changes in both temperature and moisture content lead to vegetative successionsand changes in soil formation. Though fossil soils are rare in Eastern Fennoscandia, numeroustraces of paleoenvironments are detected in soil profiles. We propose that in most cases climatic,water level, and vegetative changes were relatively rapid. A new soil profile started itsdevelopment, while the older one remained practically untouched.
