This is a study of the Miocene Carmel flora of California, an
evergreen laurel-oak forest that grew in a mild temperate (mean
annual temperature of 15 degrees C), frost-free climate, with
annual precipitation of about 760 mm (30 in.). Collectively, the
Carmel and other Miocene floras like the San Pablo and Temblor
(broad-leafed deciduous trees, with few evergreen species), the
Puente (evergreen oak forest with chaparral species), the Mint
Canyon, Ricardo, and Tehachapi (numerous arid subtropical scrub
associated with oak woodland and chaparral species) suggest they
foreshadowed a similar distribution of the different California
vegetation zones today.
