Description
A warmer and drier interval identified from the type and amount of pollen found in a sediment core with bi-decadal resolution retrieved from Piermont Marsh (41°00'N, 73°55'W) on the western shore of the Hudson River, New York, USA, revealed the MWP to have held sway in that area from AD 795 to 1290.
