STRATIGRAPHIC POLLEN ANALYSIS OF LATE HOLOCENE SEDIMENTS, SANTA BARBARA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings
Year: 1986
Summary
Changes in the Holocene vegetation have not been widely studied for
coastal California. Stratigraphic palynological
studies of two locations on the Unocal pipeline in Santa Barbara County,
California represent vegetational sequences for approximately 1OOO years
in the Santa Ynez Valley. This study was undertaken as part of a greater examination
of cultural resources and geomorphology along the pipeline. A
pollen study of a core from the Santa Barbara Basin off the coast near Santa
Barbara provides a record of the coastal vegetation for the past 12, 000 years (Heusser 1978) for comparison.
