Amazon pollen manual and atlas =

"This manual and atlas consists, in large part, of illustrations of the principal pollen types that have been found and identified in the sediments of Amazonian lakes. In addition, the volume includes brief reviews of significant pollen work in the Amazon to date, and sections on pollen methods, statistics, paleoecology and lake coring. Pollen analysis of lake sediments is the most widely used procedure for reconstructing paleoclimates by climate modelers and ecologists; therefore, this book should prove a powerful tool for historical climate studies."--Jacket.
