Tähtsamad tulemused
Uurimisrühma arendustöö on avardanud võimalusi koostööks teiste teadusharudega nagu klimatoloogia, ökoloogia ja arheoloogia. Kvaternaarigeoloogia osakonna töö põhifookus on olnud taimkatte, kliima ja inimtegevuse omavaheliste seoste uurimine Euroopas viimase 15000 aasta jooksul, põhinedes tänapäevastel paleoökoloogistel andmetel põhinevad mineviku taimestiku- ja kliimamuutuste rekonstruktsioonidel ja taimestiku (keskkonna) modelleerimisel, et selgitada bioloogiliste protsesside (ränne ja konkurents) ja abiootiliste tegurite (kliima, toiteainete ja häiringute hulk, inimtegevus) mõju taimestiku dünaamikale hilis- ja pärastjääajal Põhja-Euroopas. Uurimuste teeb unikaalseks multi- ja interdistsiplinaarne lähenemine, sh õietolmu, ränivetikate, järvede põhjaloomastiku ja inimtegevuse andmestiku liitmine ühtsesse teabekogumisse, mis aitab välja selgitada käimasolevate kiirete kliima- ja keskkonnamuutuste ulatuse ning ennustada võimalike tagajärgi.2024. aastal algasid kaks uut projekti, PRG 1993 ja TK215, mis määravad kindlaks paleoökosüsteemide reageerimismustrid kliimastressile ja inimmõjule, keskendudes võimalikele vastureaktsioonidele nagu säilenõtkus, degradeerumine ja taastumine ning režiimimuutus. Olulisemad tulemused seni seostuvad surusääskede ja vesikirpude jäänustel põhinevate kliima ja eskkonnaparameetrite rekonstrueerimismudelite väljatöötamisel, samuti kliima ja keskkonna omavahelisel seosel mammutite väljasuremise perioodil. Samuti multidistsiplinaarne lähenemine inimasustuse ajaloo rekonstrueerimisele mis võimaldab õietolmupõhise maakatte taastuletamise kaudu määrata kindlaks seose arheoloogiliste leidudega.
