Deglaciation in the central Pyrenees during the Pleistocene–Holocene transition: Timing and geomorphological significance

TLDR
In this article, the authors used cosmic-ray exposure (CRE) dating to study deglaciation in a sector of the southern-central Pyrenees (the Panticosa massif and the upper Gallego and Ossau valleys).

Timing and new geomorphologic evidence of the last deglaciation stages in Sierra Nevada (southern Spain)

TL;DR: In this paper, 36Cl cosmogenic exposure was applied to 28 samples from moraine and fossil rock glacier boulders and glacial polished surfaces, in 5 glaciated valleys around Veleta Peak (3396m asl; 37°03′02″N 3°20′54″W).

Cirques have growth spurts during deglacial and interglacial periods: Evidence from 10Be and 26Al nuclide inventories in the central and eastern Pyrenees

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used 10 Be nuclide samples (n = 36) from moraines, bedrock steps, and supraglacial ridgetops among a population of cirques in the east-central Pyrenees in order to quantify denudation in the landscape and detect whether the mountain topography bears any relevance to the glacial buzzsaw hypothesis.

Chronology of glaciation and deglaciation during the Loch Lomond (Younger Dryas) Stade in the Scottish Highlands: implications of recalibrated 10Be exposure ages

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a locally derived 10 Be production rate and assuming rock surface erosion rates of zero to 1'mm'ka−1 produces exposure ages 130-980 years older than those originally reported, and then employed aggregate probability density distributions for the timing of moraine deposition and deglaciation.

Late Quaternary ice sheet extents in northeastern Germany inferred from surface exposure dating

TL;DR: In this article, the authors determined in situ cosmogenic 10-Be ages for 11 boulders on the Hoher Flaming ice marginal belt and five more on the Gerswalder moraine, a recessional moraine of the Pomeranian stage.

The last maximum ice extent and subsequent deglaciation of the Pyrenees : an overview of recent research

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the studies published since the end of the 19th century in a historical perspective and focusing on how the methods of investigation used by successive generations of authors led them to paleogeographic and chronologic conclusions that for a time were antagonistic and later became complementary.
