Near-Synchronous Interhemispheric Termination of the Last Glacial Maximum in Mid-Latitudes
Isotopic records from polar ice cores imply globally asynchronous warming at the end of the last glaciation. However, 10 Be exposure dates show that large-scale retreat of mid-latitude Last Glacial Maximum glaciers commenced at about the same time in both hemispheres. The timing of retreat is consis...
