Radiocarbon dates of late quaternary mammals in the Archangelsk Region and their contribution to reconstructions of the last glaciation in Eastern Europe

D. V. Ponomarev; Anastasia K. Markova; T. van Kolfschoten; J. van der Plicht

Twelve new AMS (Accelerator Mass Spectrometry) dates of large Quaternary mammal remains were reported: mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius, bison (Bison priscus), and musk ox (Ovibos pallantis) found in the Archangelsk Region. The absolute age of the identified samples varies from 46 000 to 22 000 calibrated years ago. These data suggest that a substantial part of the Archangelsk Region was not covered by ice during the indicated time interval.

Голоценовая история фауны мелких млекопитающих представляет интерес как пример трансформации сообществ под воздействием естественной динамики климата. Объектами изучения являлись 2720 щечных зубов мелких млекопитающих из местонахождений долины р. Шаръю (левый приток р. Усы), которые исследовались стандартными палеонтологическими методами. Для датирования ископаемых комплексов использовался 14С УМС-метод. Местонахождения представляют собой зоогенные скопления с массовыми остатками позвоночных животных. В результате описаны две фазы развития микротериофауны гряды Чернышева: субатлантического и современного периодов. Установлено, что в субатлантическое время микротериофауна гряды Чернышева имела типичный лесной облик и была практически идентична синхронным сообществам мелких млекопитающих Приполярного Урала и сильно контрастировала с сообществами восточного макросклона Полярного Урала. Различия в видовых составах костных остатков грызунов из Шаръю-2 и Шаръю-3, очевидно, связаны с деятельностью разных видов пернатых хищников (дневных хищников и сов). Различия современных комплексов мелких млекопитающих гряды Чернышева и сопредельных территорий объясняется тафономическими причинами. Ключевые слова: мелкие млекопитающие, поздний голоцен, гряда Чернышева, северо-восток европейской части России.

The history of formation of recent small mammal communities in the Nether-Polar Urals

I. V. Kryazheva; D. V. Ponomarev; T. van Kolfschoten; van der Johannes Plicht

The results of studies on small mammal bone assemblages from seven cave-type sites on the Shchugor and Kozhim rivers are presented. Four stages in the development of small mammal fauna in the Nether-Polar Urals are described, which correspond to the Alleröd, Younger Dryas, Early Holocene, and Subatlantic periods. The moderately cryohydrophilic fauna of the Alleröd was replaced by an atypically “mild” xerophylic community in the Younger Dryas. In the Early Holocene, its structure still included considerable proportions of tundra species, which, along with forest species, were also found in the subfossil assemblage from the Subatlantic. It is shown that the transformation of the small mammal fauna in the above sites had a specific pattern, compared to that in other regions of northeastern Europe and to the dynamics of the natural environment and climate.

QUATERNARY STRATIGRAPHY | Biostratigraphy

T. van Kolfschoten

The investigation of the Quaternary and its geological and climatic history requires accurate dating of events. Numerical dating can be problematic for the Quaternary record beyond the limit of radiocarbon dating (∼50 thousand years ago (ka)) and hence, other methods have to be applied. A classical method in geological sciences through biostratigraphical data, using knowledge of the changes in flora and fauna that are caused by the evolution, extinction, and migration or dispersal of species. The Quaternary larger and smaller mammal records are subdivided into a number of biozones that form a biostratigraphical framework that is widely applied among Quaternary continental stratigraphers. Scientists investigating marine deposits use their own zonations. The correlation between continental and marine biozonations and the correlation with the Marine Isotope Stages and the continental stages is still a matter of debate.
