New data for the Last Glacial Maximum in Great Britain and Ireland
TL;DR: In this paper, the history of the British and Irish Ice Sheet (BIIS) at the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) has been advanced by new approaches, in particular, by cosmogenic nuclide surface-exposure dating, aminostratigraphy of ‘shelly’ glacial deposits, AMS radiocarbon dating, and the evidence from continental margin marine cores, all of which supersede the previously weak geochronologic control.

Vegetation history and palaeoclimate of the last glacial period at Lago Grande di Monticchio, Southern Italy
TL;DR: In this article, a high-resolution palynological study of a 51 m core from Lago Grande di Monticchio, southern Italy, has provided a palaeonvironmental record for the last glacill.

Multiproxy climate reconstructions for the Eemian and Early Weichselian
Gerard Aalbersberg,Thomas Litt +1 more
TL;DR: Palaeobotanical, coleopteran and periglacial data from 106 sites across northwestern Europe have been analysed in order to reconstruct palaeoclimatic conditions during the Eemian and Early Weichselian as discussed by the authors.

An absolute chronology for the raised beach and associated deposits at Sewerby, East Yorkshire, England
Mark D. Bateman,John A. Catt +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a range of luminescence dating techniques applied to the blown sand deposit overlying the raised beach is reported, which provides the first absolute date for the Sewerby site of 120.84 +/- 11.82 ka, which places the blew sand at the boundary between oxygen isotope stages (OIS) 5e and 5d.

The last British Ice Sheet: A review of the evidence utilised in the compilation of the Glacial Map of Britain
TL;DR: Clark et al. as discussed by the authors reviewed the evidence presently available (as at December 2003) for the compilation of the Glacial Map of Britain (see [Clark C.D., Evans D., Khatwa A., Bradwell T., Jordan C.J., Marsh S.H., Mitchell W.A., Bateman, M.D.
