    Palynology Assemblages and Paleoclimatic Character of the Late Eocene to the Early Oligocene in China

    • The transition from the Eocene to the Oligocene is the most significant interval in Earth history since the dinosaurs died out around 65 Ma. During this interval the earth's climate changed from a "greenhouse" to an "icehouse". Global temperature plummeted and the first Antarctic icecap appeared. These climatic stresses triggered plant and animal extinction. The palynology in China also reflects these trends. Based on a study of the development of palynology and the flora from the Late Eocene to Early Oligocene in China, it is suggested that the diversity and abundance of tropical and subtropical plants significantly decreased, and temperate plants such as Betulaeae and Ulmaceae increased. Montane conifers also greatly increased, and at the same time the abundance of arid plants and herbaceous plants rose. The palynological assemblages from the Late Eocene to Early Oligocene reflect the floral changes that occurred, from coniferous and broad-leaved forest dominated by tropical and subtropical evergreen plants to coniferous and broad-leaved forest dominated by deciduous plants. The paleoclimate conditions in the Late Eocene to Early Oligocene changed from warm and wet to drier and cooler. This trend coincides with world climate at that time, which means that the Chinese mainland was influenced by the global transition and the development of the continental icecap over Antarctica.
