N2 - © 2016 Elsevier LtdNew data have been obtained on the landscape evolution within basalt plateau under conditions of climatic fluctuations in the Late Holocene. The reconstructions were based on the studies of the lacustrine-swamp sequence of the Larchenkovo swamp in the central part of the Shkotovskoe Plateau. The swamp appeared in place of a paleolake, the latter having passed through several stages in its evolution. Within the considered period the lake had the greatest area and depth about 4.48–3.9 cal. ka BP, under conditions of warming and increased rainfall. At the final stage, there were alternating intervals of the lake deepening and shallowing, against the background of general waterlogging and paludification. In the upper part of the peat sequence there is a volcanic ash layer B-Tm attributed to the Baitoushan volcano eruption in AD 969. The studies permitted to identify stages in the environmental evolution and to determine the critical points in their development; to analyze the natural landscape-
