The distal deposition of tephra from explosive volcanism has the potential to geochronologically constrain sedimentary archives and landforms. With this technique, we constrain a Late Glacial glacier re-advance on Svalbard and suggest that glacioisostatic emergence rates during the Younger Dryas chr...
