Analysis of data from reconstructed paleogeographical conditions, based on studying comparatively complete sections of North Asia’s Karginsky thermochron, showed that, to the north of the Arctic circle, climate was close to that of the present or warmer. To the south of 60° N, the distribution sections with of without traces of «warm» climate shows no correspondence with latitudinal zones and, consequently, climatic gradients. It is assumed that, to the south of 60° N, Karginsky paleoclimates might have been influenced by local climate-forming factors, which are particularly evident in the occurrence of microclimatic vegetation refugia.
