摘要
Unlike most other ecosystems, many wetlands preserve an archive of their own history in their accumulating sediments. Reading this archive can be complex and challenging. This paper explores some of the challenges faced when trying to interpret the pollen record preserved in sediment archives from wetlands. It uses simulations of pollen dispersal and deposition in wetland scenarios to demonstrate that relatively simple models can replicate many of the features of the wetland pollen signal, and explores the application of these models to developing better understanding and interpretation of the palaeo-record.
