A note on the glacial and late glacial history of caithness

Geological Journal, 1981
AbstractIt is generally accepted that in the last glaciation Scottish ice from the Moray Firth flowed to the northwest across Caithness depositing shelly drift. Examination of striae along the east coast of Caithness shows that some were formed by ice flowing into and not out of the Moray Firth.

Zoological Perspectives on the Late Glacial

2007
Enough mammal specimens of Late Glacial date from the British Isles have been subjected to radiocarbon dating to provide a reliable outline of the likely large mammal fauna of the time, though the accompanying fauna of small mammals has mostly been assigned to this period on associative, rather than direct, dating.

Late-Glacial and Post-Glacial Shorelines in South-East Scotland

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, 1966
THE WRITERS have been studying the Late-glacial and Post-glacial shorelines of south-east Scotland for several years. Some of the results of these studies have been published in various papers dealing with particular shorelines or aspects of the area, but no attempt has so far been made to present a statement of the pattern of sea-level changes in the ...

A late-glacial and post-glacial history of amsoldingersee and vicinity, Switzerland

Schweizerische Zeitschrift für Hydrologie, 1984
A multidisciplinary approach was used to study the Late-Glacial and Post-Glacial history of a Swiss Plateau lake. Pollen analysis revealed thirteen major changes in vegetation. A series of coordinated fluctuations in vegetation and lacustrine trophic status were found, which were partially interpreted as the result of climatic changes.

Interhemispheric Correlation of Late Pleistocene Glacial Events

Science, 1995
A radiocarbon chronology shows that piedmont glacier lobes in the Chilean Andes achieved maxima during the last glaciation at 13,900 to 14,890, 21,000, 23,060, 26,940, 29,600, and ≥33,500 carbon-14 years before present ( 14 C yr B.P.) in a cold and wet Subantarctic Parkland environment.

Jura glacial lakes: a paleoclimatic and paleoenvironmental evolution since the Late Glacial Period.

2020
<p>During the retreat of a Würm ice sheet, numerous glacial paleolakes took place in the Swiss and French Jura. Two sites were investigated: the Amburnex Valley site (Switzerland), which evolved in well-developed peatland and the Lake Val (France), which is still persisted as a lacustrine system.

Late Glacial and Post-Glacial Changes in the Lower Dee Valley

Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London, 1912
I. Introduction. This paper is the result of observations made in the Lower Dee Valley by myself and other members of H.M. Geological Survey, in the course of mapping in the Denbighshire Coalfield and neighbouring areas. My thanks are especially due to Mr. G. W. Lamplugh, F.R.S., for the help that his knowledge of Glacial geology has afforded

Late-Glacial and Post-Glacial subaerial deposits at Pitstone, Buckinghamshire

Proceedings of the Geologists' Association, 1966
Abstract A small area of the chalk escarpment north-west of Pitstone Hill, Buckinghamshire, is described. Quarrying has cut into two scarp face coombes lined with unbedded chalk rubble (coombe rock). Overlying this are deposits which on stratigraphical and faunal grounds are assigned to the Late-glacial period of the Weichselian Glaciation.
