“Postglacial”—A Term with Three Meanings

Abstract “Postglacial”, with a capital “P”, is a chrono-stratigraphical unit starting with the Preboreal at 10 000 B.P. De Geer used the same name for a period covering approximately the last 8 900 years. The same word “postglacial”, with a small “p”, is a genetic facies term telling us that the sed...
