Main publication details
MARC recordVolcanic triggering of glaciation / J.R. Bray.
| Title: | Volcanic triggering of glaciation / J.R. Bray. |
| Author(s): | Bray, J. R. |
| Date: | 1976. |
| In: | Nature. (1976.), Vol. 260(5550) (1976) |
| Abstract: | Considers model in which formation of large Pleistocene ice sheets depends on sudden buildup of permanent snow cover over sub-Arctic upland plateaux, which depends in turn on survival of snow cover over a large area for a single summer and subsequent feedback reactions leading to icefields. Presents case that such snow cover survival could have resulted from one or several closely spaced massive volcanic ash eruptions. |
