Abstract:
Ostracodes and pollen preserved in a 75.9-m-long sediment core (PI-6) recovered from Lake Petén Itzá, Guatemala were used to assess the magnitude and velocity of aquatic and terrestrial community responses during the last 85,000 years. The following pollen data are provided: Taxa diversity (pollen sum).
