A North Greenland‐wide in situ cosmogenic 14C ice sheet chronology since the Lateglacial
Boreas, EarlyView.Knowledge of the glacial history of the North Greenland Ice Sheet is crucial due to its high sensitivity to climate change. However, because the ice sheet in this region is predominantly cold‐based, resulting in low erosion rates, using 10Be exposure dating to establish reliable ice sheet chronologies has proven very challenging due to nuclide ...
