Organogenic depsits at Zbójno by Przedbórz, western slopes of the Holy Cross Mts, and their bearing on stratigraphy of the Pleistocene of Poland

Abstract

Organogenic deposits at Zbójno by Przedbórz, western slopes of the Holy Cross Mts, Central Poland, represent a complete climatic cycle including an optimum phase with large amounts of Tlilia pollen both proceeded and succeeded by a cool phase. The sequence represents a warm interstadial (Zbójno Interstadial) within the anaglacial part of the Odranian (Riss I) Glaciation. The Zbójno Interstadial separated the pre-maximum Krzna Stadial from the preceding Liwiec Stadial during which two upper alluvial series had been accumulated in paleovalleys developed at the optimum of the Mazovian (Mindel II/RissI) Interglacial.
