The late Quaternary stratigraphy and environments of northern Eurasia and the adjacent Arctic seas - new contributions from QUEEN
QUEEN is a program of the European Science Foundation (ESF) which aims at deciphering the Late Quaternary history of a remote part of our world whichhoweveris of eminent importance for an understanding of mid- to long-term climatic variations over the last two climatic cycles, some 200,000 years.
