10Be exposure age chronology of the last glaciation in the Krkonoše Mountains, Central Europe

TLDR

Boulder height - exposure age relationships from a global glacial Be-10 compilation

TL;DR: Cosmogenic exposure dating of glacial boulders is commonly used to estimate the timing of past glaciations because the method enables direct dating of the duration a boulder has been exposed to cos...

Atmospheric circulation over Europe during the Younger Dryas

TL;DR: The first palaeoglacier-derived reconstruction of YD precipitation across Europe, determined from 122 reconstructed glaciers and proxy atmospheric temperatures, reveals a persistent SCAND-like circulation and southerly storm track during the Younger Dryas.

Sequence and chronology of the Cuerpo de Hombre paleoglacier (Iberian Central System) during the last glacial cycle

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used terrestrial cosmogenic nuclides (10Be) to estimate the maximum ice extent of the Cuerpo de Hombre paleoglacier in the Sierra de Bejar plateau glacier during the last glacial cycle.

The Last Glacial Maximum.

TL;DR: The responses of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres differed significantly, which reveals how the evolution of specific ice sheets affected sea level and provides insight into how insolation controlled the deglaciation.

Air pressure and cosmogenic isotope production

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the cosmic ray flux increases at higher altitude as air pressure and the shielding effect of the atmosphere decrease, and that altitude-dependent scaling factors are required to compensate for this effect in calculating cosmic ray exposure ages.

Terrestrial in situ cosmogenic nuclides: theory and application

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the theory necessary for interpreting cosmogenic nuclide data, reviews estimates of parameters, describes strategies and practical considerations in field applications, and assesses sources of error in interpreting Cosmogenic Nuclide measurements.
