Late Glacial summer paleohydrology across Central Europe. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep
AbstractIt is generally accepted that a weakening of the North Atlantic thermohaline circulation caused the Younger Dryas cooling. Although the role of seasonality was emphasized previously, this aspect is rarely considered yet, and it remains elusive how this impacted hydroclimate during winters and summers across Central Europe.

Towards a radiocarbon chronology of the Late-Glacial: Sample selection strategies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This paper outlines a dating program designed to test the reproducibility of radiocarbon dates on different materials of Late-Glacial age (plant macrofossils, fossil beetle remains, and the "humic" and "humin" chemical fractions of limnic sediments ...

LATE‐GLACIAL AND POST‐GLACIAL DEPOSITS AT MALHAM, YORKSHIRE [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 1963
SummaryPost‐glacial marl in Malham Tarn and marl and peat in Tarn Moss overlie Late‐glacial clays. Pollen analysis suggests that juniper scrub occupied the limestone upland during the Late‐glacial period. In the Post‐glacial period this was supplanted by hazel scrub (possibly with pine) and subsequently oak and elm may have been present.

Obliquity pacing of the late Pleistocene glacial terminations [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2005
The 100,000-year timescale in the glacial/interglacial cycles of the late Pleistocene epoch (the past approximately 700,000 years) is commonly attributed to control by variations in the Earth's orbit. This hypothesis has inspired models that depend on the Earth's obliquity (approximately 40,000 yr; approximately 40 kyr), orbital eccentricity ...

Tree migration-rates : narrowing the gap between inferred post-glacial rates and projected rates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Faster-than-expected post-glacial migration rates of trees have puzzled ecologists for a long time. In Europe, post-glacial migration is assumed to have started from the three southern European peninsulas (southern refugia), where large areas remained ...

Were the Larsemann Hills ice-free through the last Glacial Maximum? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Lake sediments in the Larsemann Hills contain a great diversity of biological and physical markers from which past environments can be inferred. In order to determine the timing of environmental changes it is essential to have accurate dating of ...

Major Δ14C excursions during the late glacial and early Holocene: changes in ocean ventilation or solar forcing of climate change? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The atmospheric 14C record during the Late Glacial and the early Holocene shows sharp increases simultaneous with cold climatic phases. These increases in the atmospheric 14C content are usually explained as the effect of reduced oceanic CO2 ventilation ...

Patterns of Late Glacial vegetation in The Netherlands [PDF]

open access: yesE&G Quaternary Science Journal, 1997
Abstract. The Weichselian Late Glacial (ca. 13,000 - 10,000 years BP) marks the transition from the cold Weichsel Late Pleniglacial to the warmer Holocene. During this period the climate rapidly changed as did the vegetation and the abiotic landscape. The vegetational development of the Weichselian Late Glacial in The Netherlands is determined firstly ...

Enhanced carbon dioxide outgassing from the eastern equatorial Atlantic during the last glacial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Biological productivity and carbon export in the equatorial Atlantic are thought to have been dramatically higher during the last glacial period than during the Holocene.

Reconstruction of ice-sheet changes in the Antarctic Peninsula since the Last Glacial Maximum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper compiles and reviews marine and terrestrial data constraining the dimensions and configuration of the Antarctic Peninsula Ice Sheet (APIS) from the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) through deglaciation to the present day.
