abstract = {Abstract: Macrofossil-analytical methods were used to reconstruct the vegetation development of a valley mire in temperate Northeast China. Statistical methods supported the differentiation of various developmental stages. The vegetation development shows parallels but also differences with the formation of northeast German valley mires. The mire originated as a result of paludification followed by a stagnant water body that terrestrialized. Subsequently a brownmoss rich sedge mire establised. The macrofossils indicate a loose and highly permeable peat. After a natural disturbance (flooding), resulting in the sedimentation of clastic material, it took some time until stable wet conditions re-established. In the upper three meters of the nearly nine meters thick peat layer, the composition of peat shows a marked increase of macrofossil types indicating acid-poor conditions and woody plants. Possible autogenous and allognic reasons for this change are discussed. As the uppermost peat is similar to that of the upper three metres of peat, we conclude that the mire is still in a near natural condition. This emphasises its conservation value as a representative of a former widespread mire type and as a reference site to study the valley mires that were typical for this region.},
