    Abstract:
    In sediments from Lake Bosumtwi dated between 15 000 yr BP, the presence of Olea hochstetteri pollen with percentages between 3-8% shows the spread of this typical mountain species to low altitudes. This phenomenon may have been caused by a heavy cloud cover lasting most of the year; it coincided with a lowering of the mean temperature by at least 2-3oC.-English summary
