摘要：Lower Miocene strata from boreholes and, in particular, at outcrops in the Lillebælt and Limfjorden areas of Jylland provide anatural laboratory for studying the drowning of a major deltasystem during a period of global warming. Detailed studies ofsedimentary structures, fossil algae, spores and pollen give information about depositional environments, local temperaturesand precipitation. By comparing with the global climaticrecord from the same period, a detailed reconstruction of theflooding of a low-relief delta system can be made, with emphasison the global warming after the glacial event Mi1a. The localtemperature increase following the Mi1a event is estimated tobe c. 5°C.
