Total plant richness based on strict quality filtering of sedaDNA, as well as total plant richness based on pollen (A) smoothed with a loess-smoother (span = 0.1); proportion of sedaDNA plant taxa characteristic of vegetation belts ordered from high to low elevation (B); mean precipitation and organic content of the sediments (as loss on Ignition (LOI)), chironomid reconstructed temperature (dotted lines indicate unsmoothed values of the sample-specific estimated standard errors of prediction, +SEP, −eSEP; the blue line the record smoothed with a 3 sample running average) (C); relative proportions of plant sedaDNA representing different functional plant groups (D). Vegetation zones 1–7 based on constrained cluster analysis (CONISS) of sedaDNA are indicated by vertical lines.
