摘要: Abstract Leaves of Nothofagus menziesii and other plant fragments representing species still abundant in the area were identified from organic material dated at 7 490 yr B.P. (based on a half-life 5 568 yr), terrace flanking Cleddau River. This is strongly contorted layers silt gravel, overlain by massive boulders. The age leaves provides strong evidence that survived south New Zealand through Otiran glaciation. deposits are possibly related to wasting, residual mass ice. height (7 m) represents result tectonic uplift, least part.
