Weichselian glaciations in the middle Notec River region, northwest Poland
… pattern and ice movement mechanism during the Weichselian glaciations in the middle Notec River area, NW Poland. A new lithostratigraphy of the study area has been established, based on correlation of stratigraphical position, clast lithology, fabrics and grain size composition of till units. …

Pollen analysis, chronology and palaeomagnetism of three Late Weichselian sites in southern Sweden
… Blekinge and Lake Bolmen in Småland, with Late Weichselian lake sediments were studied with respect to pollen analysis and palaeomagnetism. The chronologies are based on pollen stratigraphical correlations, radiocarbon dating and, for two of the sites, on a clay-varve chronology. The …

The Weichselian in southern Sweden and southwestern Baltic Sea : glacial stratigraphy, palaeoenvironments and deglaciation chronology
In this thesis the Weichselian glaciation history of southernmost Sweden and the southwestern Baltic Basin is discussed, with special emphasis on Middle and Late Weichselian ice advances and subsequent deglaciations. The main study area was Kriegers Flak in the southwestern Baltic Sea where …

Late Weichselian and Holocene Glacimarine Sedimentation and Environments in Kejser Franz Josephs Fjord and On The Adjacent Continental Margin, East Greenland
… margin of East Greenland during the Late Weichselian and Holocene. A variety of techniques are adpoted in this study in order to address the objectives outlined previously. The study is based on a suite of 8 cores from the, mid to outer region of Kejser Franz Josephs Fjord, and the …

Submarine landforms and past ice flow in the Krossfjorden system, northwest Svalbard
… the shelf edge west of Svalbard) during the Late Weichselian glacial maximum. They also improve the understanding of the relative chronology of retreat through Krossfjorden, which represents the outer part of the fjord system under study. Two transverse ridges were the only ice-marginal features …

A Glacial Sedimentary System in Northwest Spitzbergen
… northwest Spitsbergen, since the Late Weichselian glacial maximum, has been constructed using an integrated analysis of lacustrine, terrestrial and marine sediments. Thirty-four piston cores were taken from two series of linked lakes in Signedalen, fed by three small cirque glaciers. …

The Quaternary geological evolution of the Belgian Continental Shelf, southern North Sea
… only found in depressions. During the subsequent Weichselian lowstand, a minor sinuous river incised in the Eemian transgressive surface, where previously the Ostend Valley was present. Directly on top of this surface no Weichselian cover sands have been encountered, but early Holocene tidal flat …

Luminescence based chronologies on Late Pleistocene loess-palaeosol sequences: an applied-methodological study on quartz separates
… Saxonian Loess Region comprises up to 20 m thick Weichselian loess accumulations, with intercalated palaeosoils. Loess research in Saxony dates back to the late 1950s. For an interdisciplinary research project funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), since 2008 the Saxonian Loess Region has …

Modeling the climatic sensitivity of the inception of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet
Understanding the sensitivity of ice sheets to climate forcing is crucial for predicting future behavior of ice sheets. Multiple studies have analyzed the inception of the Quaternary ice sheets using time-dependent global climate models. The results have indicated that although carbon dioxide …

Terrestrial cosmogenic nuclide dating applied in glacial stratigraphy and transportation studies on a greenfield exploration project in Kaarestunturi, Finnish Lapland
This study reviews the glacial history and the glacial transportation history in Kaarestunturi, Sodankylä in the Finnish Central Lapland interlobate region. The study is conducted on the Aamurusko prospect, where gold bearing quartz vein boulders have been discovered. The local glacial …
