Popis: | δ13C values of pollen grains belonging to different plant species (trees, herbaceous no poaceae, poaceae) were measured. Most of these temperate species are C3 plants with δ13C values between −28.6 ‰ and −21.7 ‰, the C4 plants have more positive values between −15.9 ‰ and −10 ‰. These results corroborate the interest of such measurements to differentiate C4 poaceae from C3 ones. Inside the same genus or the same species data variability is studied. Chemical treatment (acetolysis) of pollen grains induces a lowering of the values. These preliminary results are intended to help calibrate the pollen grains δ13C of modern plants in order to use δ13C of fossil pollen grains to reconstruct palaeovegetation variability responses to climatic factors. |
