TLDR
In this article, the authors used radiocarbon, luminescence and amino acid dating of interbedded interstadial and interglacial sediments to identify three major glacial advances during the Weichselian.About:

TL;DR: In this paper, the maximum limits of the Eurasian ice sheets during four glaciations have been reconstructed: (1) the Late Saalian (>140 ka), (2) the Early Weichselian (100-80 ka),(3) the Middle Weichsellian (60-50 ka), and (4) the late Weichselsian (25-15 ka) based on satellite data and aerial photographs combined with geological field investigations in Russia and Siberia, and with marine seismic and sediment core data.

Heinrich events: Massive late Pleistocene detritus layers of the North Atlantic and their global climate imprint
TL;DR: In this paper, the Heinrich detritus appears to have been derived from the region around Hudson Strait and was deposited over approximately 500 ± 250 years, and several mechanisms have been proposed for the origin of the layers: binge-purge cycle of the Laurentide ice sheet, jokulhlaup activity from Hudson Bay lake, and an ice shelf buildup/collapse fed by Hudson Strait.

The last Eurasian ice sheets - a chronological database and time-slice reconstruction, DATED-1
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a new time-slice reconstruction of the Eurasian ice sheets (British-Irish, Svalbard-Barents-Kara Seas and Scandinavian) documenting the spatial evolution of these interconnected ice sheets every 1000 years from 25 to 10 years and at four selected time periods back to 40 years.

TL;DR: The Late Wisconsinan advance of the Laurentide Ice Sheet started from a Middle Wisconsinan interstadial minimum 27−30 14 C ka BP when the ice margin approximately followed the boundary of the Canadian Shield.

Submarine landforms and the reconstruction of fast-flowing ice streams within a large Quaternary ice sheet: The 2500-km-long Norwegian-Svalbard margin (57°–80°N)
TL;DR: In this paper, a morphological interpretation of regional and detailed bathymetric data sets on the 2500-km-long Norwegian shelf from the North Sea to Svalbard (80°N) has revealed a dynamic ice-flow pattern along the western margin of the Scandinavian and Barents/Svalbard ice sheets.
