Recent luminescence dating and geochemical analysis revealed that the sequence is made up of two compositionally slightly different phases representing sedimentation during Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 3 and 4 separated by a ca. 7-15 ka-long hiatus. We investigated the bulk mineralogical composition of the sediment to better characterise the compositional differences, and analysed modern stream sediments to constrain the provenance from different catchments. The modern stream sediments closely match expectations based on catchment geology besides an overrepresentation of dolomite in several catchments, likely attributable to the greater sediment generation potential of dolostone based on its physical and petro- graphic properties.

  • Phleum Commutatum and Ph. Rhaeticum (Poaceae) in the Eastern Alps: Characteristics and Distribution List of Seen Specimens
    Phleum commutatum and Ph. rhaeticum (Poaceae) in the Eastern Alps: Characteristics and Distribution List of Seen Specimens By Kurt ZERNIG Abteilung für Botanik, Landesmuseum Joanneum, Raubergasse 10, A-8010 Graz, e-mail: [email protected] Published May 9, 2005 For details see: Phyton (Horn, Austria) 45 (1): 65–79. Summary The two species of Phleum alpinum group – Ph. commutatum GAUDIN and Ph. rhaeticum (HUMPHRIES) RAUSCHERT – were investigated. They can be differentiated morphologically by the presence (Ph. rhaeticum) or absence (Ph. commutatum) of ciliae on the awns on the glumes. But this character turned out to be insufficient for populations which have one or few cilia on the base of awns. Some other morphological characters were tested, if and to what extent, they provide additional features to facilitate correct determination. The length of the anthers shows distinct differences between the two species: anthers of Ph. commutatum are (0.6) 0.7–1.2 (1.3) mm long, while those of Ph. rhaeticum measure (1.0) 1.3–2.0 (2.3) mm. Collection sites of more than 1200 revised herbarium specimens are localized and shown in dot maps. Ph. rhaeticum is very common and frequent in the central and southern regions of the Eastern Alps, towards the north it becomes rarer. It prefers pastures in the subalpine and alpine belt. Ph. commutatum, in contrast, grows especially in the alpine belt of the Central Alps, there forming part of the snow-bed vegetation. Towards the north it becomes more common, where it grows in moderate altitudes from 1500 m upwards.
