Several millennial-scale warm phases perturbed the glacial climate during Marine Isotope Stage 3 (MIS 3, ca. 57–29 ka BP). Little is known about the impact of these climatic changes on Alpine ecosystems due to the sparsity of undisturbed sediment records in the Alps and their foreland. In this study...
