We present PATICE, a GIS database of Patagonian glacial geomorphology and recalibrated chronological data. PATICE includes 58,823 landforms and 1,669 geochronological ages …
The evolution of past global ice sheets is highly uncertain. One example is the missing ice problem during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, 26 000-19 000 years before present)–an …
Two fundamental questions about the ice-age climate system await satisfactory resolution. First, if summer solar radiation intensity truly controls the orbital signature of the last glacial …
" Sometime before 15,000 years ago, a band of hunter-gatherers arrived in Northeast Asia. They continued east, becoming the first people to set foot in the Americas. They soon found …
Geomorphological mapping is a well-established method for examining earth surface processes and landscape evolution in a range of environmental contexts. In glacial …
This paper reviews current understanding of deglaciation in North, Central and South America from the Last Glacial Maximum to the beginning of the Holocene. Together with …
The most recent deglaciation of the North American Ice Sheet Complex (NAISC: comprising the Innuitian, Cordilleran, and Laurentide ice sheets) offers a broad perspective from which …
The most recent maximum in global ice volume occurred around 23,000 to 19,000 years ago, during Marine Isotope Stage 2 (MIS 2;∼ 29-14 ka) according to benthic δ 18 O and sea …
Our understanding of past ocean-climate dynamics is informed by multiple paleocirculation proxies including δ 13 C, 231 Pa/230 Th, and radiogenic neodymium isotopes (ε Nd). Of …
