Examples of Weichselian environments: local versus regional developments [PDF]

open access: yesEiszeitalter und Gegenwart, 1994
In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden einige Unsicherheitsfaktoren bei der Rekonstruktion von Paläo-Umweltbedingungen diskutiert. In der Diskussion werden zwei Beispiele aus dem terrestrischen Bereich angeführt, nämlich Frosthügel und Brände; wobei der ...

Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

Age of Blown Sand in the East Slovak Lowland—Case Study from Svätuše Sand Pit, Slovakia

open access: yesGeosciences
A sedimentary profile consisting of blown sand capped by a sand-loam bedded interval was analysed in the Svätuše sand pit in the East Slovak Lowland. Stratigraphically, blown sands from this lowland have so far only been indirectly classified into the ...

Last deglaciation of northern continental Europe

open access: yesCuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2015
Correlation of main ice sheet limits in northern continental Europe during Late Weichselian is presented, based on available data concerning occurrence of ice-marginal formations and their radiometric dating.

Ein frühweichselzeitliches Profil bei Rahden-Welle (nördliches Wiehengebirgsvorland, Nordrhein-Westfalen) [PDF]

open access: yesEiszeitalter und Gegenwart, 1997
During excavations for a purification plant in Rahden-Welle lower terrace depositions of the „Kleine Aue" were found. Meltwater layers of probably Saalian age were overlain by peaty, silty and sandy depositions. Pollenanalytical investigation of the peat

Changing climates and environments within the complex Middle to Late Pleistocene fill of an overdeepened valley at Niederweningen, Switzerland

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Glacially overdeepened valleys in the northern Alpine Foreland preserve Middle to Late Pleistocene sedimentary sequences that may serve as valuable archives for reconstructing past environmental changes in response to shifts in climate. This study presents a multidisciplinary analysis of two sediment cores from the overdeepened Wehntal Valley at ...

Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

Holocene paleoclimatic and paleohydrological changes in Lake Balaton as inferred from a complex quantitative environmental historical study of a lacustrine sequence of the Szigliget embayment

open access: yesDocumenta Praehistorica, 2008
The present paper discusses the findings of a complex quantitative paleoecological investigation implemented for capturing the Upper Weichselian, Late Glacial and Postglacial development of Lake Balaton in western Hungary, in the heart of Transdanubia ...

Pre-late Weichselian podzol soil, permafrost features and lithostratigraphy at Penttilänkangas, western Finland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2009
The ridge-shaped Penttilänkangas accumulation in western Finland is glaciofluvial in origin: probably an ice-marginal subaquatic fan, reworked and covered with younger deep water, littoral, eolian and glacial sediments.

Palaeoenvironmental and climatic changes from the lateglacial of the Saalian to the Late Weichselian in central Poland: a multiproxy study from Józefów

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Józefów site is a case study which provides a detailed record of environmental and climate changes and confirms the main traces of the landscape morphogenesis of the Late Pleistocene established in central‐eastern Europe. This study presents a multiproxy reconstruction of palaeoenvironment under variable climatic conditions from the retreat of the ...
