Record #172301:
The Quaternary glacial record of the Colombian Andes / Karin F. Helmens.
Title: | The Quaternary glacial record of the Colombian Andes / Karin F. Helmens. |
Author(s): | Helmens, Karin F. |
Date: | 2004. |
Publisher: | Amsterdam: Elsevier |
In: | Quaternary glaciations - extent and chronology : Part III South America, Asia, Australia, Antarctica. (2004.), |
Abstract: | Describes Early and Middle Pleistocene glaciations recorded by glaciofluvial sedimentation in inter-montane Bogotá basin, with onset dated around 2.6 Ma. Describes Late Pleistocene and Holocene glaciation recorded by moraines in Eastern Cordillera, comprising Middle Weichselian advance, two Late Weichselian glaciation maxima, and advance of early Late-Glacial age. Discusses evidence for Weichselian glaciation, Younger Dryas advance and Holocene fluctuations from currently glaciated Sierra Nevada del Cocuy. Presents maps of drift and moraine sequences for two areas and compares glacial records with that of Central Cordillera. Complementary digital maps on CD included with volume. |
