Ice weight caused crustal subsidence, which was greatest beneath the thickest accumulation of ice. As the ice melted, rebound of the crust lagged behind, producing a regional slope toward the ice. This slope formed basins that have lasted for thousands of years.
During the most recent ice ages of the Quaternary (the last 2.6 million years), continental ice sheets covered much of Canada, the northern United States, northern Europe, and extended into...
22 cze 2000 · The rapid colonization of northern Europe by alder from a north Balkan source seen in the pollen fits well with the genetic evidence, but the chloroplast DNA haplotypes show several more distinct...
This article summarizes the geological and paleoceanographic evidence of the Quaternary ice sheets, with emphasis on the chronology of glacial-interglacial cycles and the geographic distribution of the ice sheets.
24 gru 2014 · In these special circumstances, a great cap of ice will form that refrigerates the enclosing waters, which then sink into the depths and gradually fill the ocean basins from below.
1 kwi 2007 · During the Pleistocene Glacial Maximum, extensive ice sheets covered major parts of North America and Europe (Fig. 6). In both continents they reached south beyond 40°N, in Europe only leaving an ice-free corridor of a mere 200 km between the Nordic and the Alpine piedmont glaciers.
