格罗夫山沉积岩漂砾是东南极兰伯特冰川活动所遗留下来的新生代沉积物,因而是研究东南极冰盖历史演化的直接证据。格罗夫山沉积岩漂砾所含孢粉非常稀少,其孢粉组合特征以低丰富度草本植物花粉为主,伴有少量其它被子植物和藻类孢子。虽然孢粉的种类和数量不足以重建原始的植物群落,但至少可以为晚新生代南极大陆古植被提供信息。暗示草本-苔原植被或许发育,气候类似于现今温凉-寒冷的亚南极地区。格罗夫山沉积岩漂砾中稀有的陆相孢粉可能是由于沉积时期周围陆地稀有的边缘植被产生的,也可能由于快速沉积稀释的结果。
The Grove Mountains Sedimentary rock boulders are Cenozoic sediments left by the Lambert glacier activity in the southeast Antarctica and are therefore direct evidence for studying the historical evolution of the East Antarctic ice sheet. The Grove Mountains Sedimentary rock boulders contain very few sporopollen. Their pollen assemblages are dominated by low-abundance herbaceous pollen with a few other angiosperms and algal spores. Although the species and abundance of sporopollen are not sufficient to reconstruct the original plant community, they can at least provide information on the Late Cenozoic Antarctic continent. Suggesting that herbaceous - tundra vegetation may develop, the climate is similar to today’s cool - cold sub-Antarctic. Rare terrestrial sporopolforms in the Grove Mountains Sedimentary Rock Boulders may be due to marginal marginal vegetation around the land during deposition and may also result from rapid deposition of dilution.
