In this Swiss National Science Foundation project we study the vegetation composition of several interglacials, spanning from marine isotope stage (MIS) 5 to 12. Of particular interest is MIS 5e, the Eemian interglacial, because climatic conditions ca. 130000 years ago were slightly warmer than during the Holocene average (ca. +2°C). Here novel pollen, stomata, spore and charcoal records will be gained from Spiezberg, an Interglacial site in the Bernese Oberland. Multivariate analyses will allow numeric biostratigraphical comparisons with other interglacial profiles from the Bernese Region (e.g. Meikirch, Beerenmösli at Gondiswil) that possess radiometric or thermoluminescence dates to gain a reliable biostratigraphic age attribution of the Spiezberg interglacial. In addition, physical dating methods will be explored.
