The western Bodensee region has a size of about 800 km and is elevated between 395 m (lake level of Bodensee) and about 750 m above sea level (a.s. l.) (Lang 1990). The landscape was covered by ice during the Weichselian. The most common soils are luvisols and haplic luvisols developed from glacial tills and Molasse sandstones. The climate is suboceanic, with annual average temperatures of 9 °C and an annual precipitation of c. 900 mm. The potential natural vegetation would be deciduous forest dominated by Fagus sylvatica L. The actual vegetation is strongly influenced by agriculture. Besides the lower Bodensee with a water table of 62 km and the Überlinger See at the north-western bay of upper Bodensee of 61 km there are several smaller lakes as well as mires in the western foreland of lower Bodensee, originating from kettle holes and other glacial basins. Furthermore, 3 km from Radolfzell, the Buchenseen are situated, three small kettle-hole lakes, arranged in a glacial depression running from southeast to northwest. West and south of the lakes is forest with frequent F. sylvatica, on the north and east arable fields and meadows. The two north-western lakes are very close, have water expanses of 2.5 and 1.2 ha and maximum depths of more than 10 m, whereas the south-eastern lake is in a distance of 120 m, has a water expanse of 1.6 ha, but a maximum depth of only 2 m. The two deep lakes have only 2–3 m of profundal Holocene sediment, but the shallow lake provided in its centre a total core length of 9.3 m, of which more than 7 m were deposited during the Holocene. This core taken at 47° 46ʹ 01′′ N and 8° 59ʹ 04′′ E and 429 m a.s.l. was studied.

43. Buchensee（德国博登湖地区）

博登湖西部地区面积约 800 公里，海拔在 395 m（博登湖湖平面）和海平面（asl）约 750 m 之间（Lang 1990）。在Weichselian期间，景观被冰覆盖。最常见的土壤是由冰川耕作和磨拉石砂岩形成的 luvisols 和 haplic luvisols。属亚海洋性气候，年平均气温为 9 °C，年降水量为 c。900 毫米。潜在的自然植被将以山毛榉为主的落叶林。实际植被受农业的影响很大。除了地下水位为 62 公里的下博登湖和位于上博登湖西北湾 61 公里的 Überlinger See 之外，在下博登湖西部前陆还有几个较小的湖泊和沼泽，起源于壶洞和其他冰川盆地。此外，距离拉多夫采尔 3 公里，布亨森位于三个小壶洞湖，排列在从东南向西北延伸的冰川洼地中。湖泊的西部和南部是森林，北部和东部的耕地和草地上常有 F. sylvatica。两个西北湖相距很近，水域面积分别为 2.5 和 1.2 公顷，最大深度超过 10 m，而东南湖相距 120 m，水域面积为 1.6 公顷，但最大深度仅为 2 m。两个深湖的深层全新世沉积物只有 2-3 m，但其中心的浅湖提供了 9.3 m 的总芯长，其中超过 7 m 是在全新世沉积的。研究了取自北纬 47° 46ʹ 01'' 和东经 8° 59ʹ 04'' 以及 429 米的岩心。
