Kam-biu Liu Andrew Lee Maxwell路易斯安那州立大学博士论文改进研究：东南亚大陆的古环境变化：来自柬埔寨的孢粉学证据涉及气候和人类影响的理论问题尚未从东南亚的数据中受益。在这项研究中，将在柬埔寨腊塔纳基里省进行包括取心和植被调查在内的实地工作。对柬埔寨东北部火山湖沉积物岩心的花粉和木炭分析将提供该地区的第一个古生态数据。这些研究地点将提供一个以前被忽视的地区的长期、高分辨率的植被变化记录。从研究中得出的推论将有助于完善区域和全球尺度的环流模式。

SBR-9506344 Kam-biu Liu Andrew Lee Maxwell Louisiana State University Dissertation Improvement Research: Paleo-Environmental Change in Mainland Southeast Asia: Palynological Evidence From Cambodia theoretical questions involving climatic and human impacts have not had the benefit of data from southeast Asia. In this study field work consisting of coring and vegetation surveys will be conducted in Ratanakiri Province, Cambodia. Pollen and charcoal analysis of sediment cores taken from volcanic lakes in the northeastern Cambodia will provide the first paleoecological data from the region. The study sites will furnish long, high-resolution records of vegetation change from a previously neglected area. The inferences drawn from the research will help to refine regional- and global-scale circulation models.
