摘要

Pollen and organic–inorganic carbon analyses of a 2.8 m deep sediment profile from Jalesar Tal, Unnao District, Uttar Pradesh reveal that just prior to and between 42,490 and 13,560 cal yrs BP, this region supported grassland vegetation largely comprising grasses with scanty trees of Syzygium and Prosopis under a cool and dry climate. The coarser sand sediments deposited from 13,560 to 5,260 cal yrs BP are palynologically barren and may be linked to the upwarping phase of the Ganga Plain, resulting into rapid reworking of the sediments, including calcrete formation. Between 5,260 and 4,760 cal yrs BP with the invasion of more trees, viz. Holoptelea, Acacia, Bombax ceiba, Aegle marmelos, etc. groves of forest interspersed with grassland got established due to amelioration of climate. Interestingly, the appearance of Cerealia pollen denotes the initiation of cereal-based agricultural practice in the region. Around 4,760 to 3,200 cal yrs BP, the invasion of a large number of trees, viz. Madhuca indica, Emblica officinalis, Sterculia and Adina cordifolia, besides those existing earlier coupled with high organic carbon values implies that the forest groves became diversified with the onset of a warm and humid climate in response to active SW monsoon. The rising trend of Cerealia pollen reflects the acceleration of agricultural practice in the region. Between 3,200 and 1,200 cal yrs BP, the forest groves turned sparse owing to reduced monsoon precipitation leading to prevalence of a less humid climate in the region. Since 1,200 cal yrs BP, the further diminishing trend of arboreals and aquatic plants signifies decline in rainfall witnessing a warm and dry climate.
