Abstract:

Being located in Arctic and North Atlantic region,West Greenland is sensitive to global climate changes.Thus,paleoenvironmental studies here are of vital importance.The paper firstly presents an outline on terrestrial and marine Holocene paleoenvironmental studies in West Greenland in recent years.In addition,the differences in paleoenvironmental records based on various proxies are presented and the reasons are discussed.Several future research focuses are given at the end of the paper.
