Showing papers in "Quaternary Science Reviews in 1986"

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used 14C dates and amino acid racemization estimated (AARE) ages, borehole records and stratigraphic sections, shallow seismic profiles, and biostratigraphic analyses obtained since publication of summaries by Schafer and Hartshorn (1965), Muller (1965, and Pratt and Schlee (1969).

TL;DR: In this article, the glacial history of part of the region from Indiana to New York and New Jersey was outlined in three summaries prepared for the VII Congress of the International Union for Quaternary Research (Wayne and Zumberge, 1965; Goldthwait et al., 1965; Muller, 1965); Subsequent regional summaries by White (1969, 1982), White et al. (1969), Ray (1974), and Coates (1976) reviewed the entire succession of tills in parts of Kentucky, northeastern Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York.

TL;DR: In the southern Puget Lowland, drift directly beneath Vashon till is most likely correlative with much younger drifts, such as the Double Bluff or Possession Drifts as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In the early and middle Pleistocene stratigraphy of the Kansan-Aftonian-Nebraskan stratigraphic sequence as mentioned in this paper, the existence of several tills and interglacial paleosols were not recognized in the simple KANSAN-AFTN sequence.

TL;DR: Sangamonian is used as the name for the chronostratigraphic stage that includes all of deep-sea oxygen isotope stage 5 and consequently, on a regional basis, it includes warm interglacial deposits, glacial deposits and cool interglaces as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: The southernmost limit of late Wisconsin glaciation is in Montana, more than 170 km south of the Lethbridge moraine in Alberta, Canada (Figs 1 and 2) as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The volcano Iztaccihuatl in central Mexico was glaciated twice during the middle Pleistocene, once probably in pre-Illinoian (or pre-Bull Lake) time, and once in late Illinois (or Pinedale) time.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the relationship between the area of Scandinavian glaciations and the alpine chain of the Ural Mountains, using a stratigraphic review of the different areas.

TL;DR: The glacial deposits of the Des Moines and James lobes record the extension of late Wisconsin Laurentide ice from Canada into Minnesota and Iowa and into North Dakota and South Dakota, respectively as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the most intensive erosion of the perialpine valleys must have taken place before the Riss glaciation of the classical chronology of the Alps.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Eopleistocene (1.2 to 0.7 Ma) period was probably contemporaneous with severe cooling inferred from the finds of marsh lemmings Synaptomus in the Western Urals, from the Akchagyl layers (Sukhov, 1977) and one of the AkChagyl cooling episodes in the Volga area and North Caucasus established from paleobotanical and faunal records.
