This method for extracting palynomorphs is specifically dedicated for Early Pleistocene pollen-poor carbonate or siliceous sediments in the Mediterranean, which are characterised by prolonged summer droughts. It utilises LST Fastfloat, a non-toxic, low viscosity sodium polytungstate heavy liquid. Due to its physical qualities, particularly its low viscosity, LST Fastfloat enables more efficient pollen concentration compared to other methods, including those that rely on alternative dense liquids. This approach was applied to fluviatile and lacustrine deposits in both the western (Marseille) and eastern (Ac & imath;go
