This research seeks to 1) describe the vegetational history of central          Alaska between 14,000 and 125,000 yr B.P.; 2) reconstruct past climate          during this period based on palynological and geological data; and 3)           compare these paleoclimatic reconstructions with a regional model of            Alaska climate based on computer simulations of global climate.  The            vegatation history will be described from new palynological data                coupled with results of previous paleoenvironmental studies.  Response          surface analyses and autoecological requirements of indicator species           will be used to infer past climate from the pollen records.                                                                                                     Global simulations, run with various combinations of boundary                   controls, will form the basis for modeling regional paleoclimates for           Alaska.  Data-model comparisons will be done to assess the                      correspondence between simulations and paleoclimatic records in                 Alaska.  The results of this project will significantly expand the              understanding of environmental change at high latitudes during the              late Pleistocene and will provide a rare opportunity to examine data-           model comparisons over a long period of time.  Such an examination is           essential for evaluating the ability to predict responses of climatic           and terrestrial systems to future variations in boundary controls.
