  abstract = {{T}he aim of this research was to reconstruct vegetation changes (with climate inferences) that occurred during the {H}olocene in the {F}ernando de {N}oronha {I}sland, {P}ernambuco {S}tate, northeastern {B}razil. {T}he research approach included the use of geochemical (mineralogy, elemental), carbon isotopes (delta {C}-13, {C}-14) and pollen analyses in soil organic matter ({SOM}) and sediments collected in {L}agoa da {V}iracao and {M}anguezal do {S}ueste. {T}he carbon isotopes data of {SOM} indicated that there was no significant vegetation changes during the last 7400 {BP}, suggesting that the climate was not the determinant factor for the vegetation dynamics. {T}he pollen analysis of the sediment of a core collected in the {L}agoa da {V}iracao showed the absence of {Q}uaternary material in the period between 720 {BP} and 90 {BP}. {T}he mineralogical analysis of deeper layer showed the presence of diopside indicating this material was developed "in situ". {O}nly in the shallow part of the core were found pollen of similar plant species of the modern vegetation. {T}he geochemistry and isotope results, in association with the sediment type and pollen analyses of sediment samples of {M}anguezal do {S}ueste, indicated variations in the vegetation and in its location since the middle {H}olocene. {S}uch variations can be associated with climatic events and sea level oscillations and also with anthropogenic events considering the last five hundred years.},
