PALYNOLOGICAL STUDIES OF FOREST–STEPPE ZONE ALLERED–HOLOCENE DEPOSITS OF UKRAINE: PALYNOSTRATYGRAPHICAL AND PALEOBOTANICAL ASPECTS

The results of palynological studies of Forest–Steppe zone Allered–Holocene deposits are analyzed and summarized on the levels of relative and absolute chronology. The summarized radiochronological materials of the studied territory in Holocene are presented. The received data are presented in the context of their usage for arguing Last Glacial (Allered – AL–1, AL–2, AL–3, Late Dryas – DR–3 ) and Holocene (PB–1, PB–2, BO–1, BO–2, BO–3, AT–1, AT–2, AT–3, SB–1, SB–2, SB–3, SA–1, SA–2, SA–3) periodisation.
