Record #30840:

The Pleistocene glacial history of Tasmania / J.N. Jennings, Maxwell R. Banks.

Title: The Pleistocene glacial history of Tasmania / J.N. Jennings, Maxwell R. Banks.
Author(s): Jennings, J. N.
Banks, Maxwell R.
Date: 1958.
In: Journal of Glaciology. (1958.), Vol. 3(24) (1958)
Abstract: A.N. Lewis's scheme of Tasmania's Pleistocene glacial history in terms of three full glaciations is criticized on several specific and general grounds. Area that was glaciated is thought to be much smaller than Lewis claimed. Future work on Tasmanian glaciation should not be based on Lewis's scheme and should aim to provide more relaible evidence.
Notes:
