Geochronology of the Upper Ice Complex (Yedoma) exposed in the Batagay Megaslump, East Siberia

Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research
The Batagay Megaslump in eastern Siberia exposes one of the oldest permafrost archives and provides insights into Beringian paleoenvironments. However, its geochronology calls for improvement given known difficulties with permafrost dating and current ...
