Short summary
Multiproxy study of marine sediments off the Limpopo River mouth spanning the Late Pleistocene reveals the impact of atmospheric carbon dioxide on the development of the vegetation of southeast Africa and indicates changes in the interglacial vegetation before and after the Mid-Brunhes Event (430 ka).
