Late Weichselian deglaciation and sea level history of St Jonsfjorden, Spitsbergen: a contribution to ice sheet reconstruction / David J.A. Evans, Brice R. Rea.
Title: | Late Weichselian deglaciation and sea level history of St Jonsfjorden, Spitsbergen: a contribution to ice sheet reconstruction / David J.A. Evans, Brice R. Rea. |
Author(s): | Evans, David J. A. Rea, Brice R. |
Date: | 2005. |
In: | Scottish Geographical Journal. (2005.), Vol. 121(2) (2005) |
Abstract: | Presents partial reconstruction of late Weichselian deglaciation of St Jonsfjorden, based upon radiocarbon-dated emerged marine sediments and raised shoreline fragments. Data support previously reported occurrence of two sets of shorelines on west coast of Spirsbergen, older set at 60 m located around fjord mouth and younger set below 46 m. Occurrence in north-west spitsbergen of well preserved extensive shorelines that are demonstrably older than late Weichselian can be explained either by survival beneath cold-based glacier ice, or ice-free conditions throughout glacial cycle. |
