Abstract

A synthesis is provided of Late‐glacial (14‐9 ka BP) environmental changes in lowland Switzerland (the ‘Swiss Plateau’). The chronology of deglaciation and subsequent developments in vegetation cover in the area are summarised. The sequence of climatic variations experienced in the region during the Late‐glacial is then described and a curve representing the main palaeotemperature variations is presented.
