International audience The rhyolitic Upper Nisyros Pumice (UNP) from the Kos-Yali-Nisyros volcanic system has been detected as a cryptotephra layer in lacustrine sediments from the Sea of Marmara (SoM). A new independent age of the UNP eruption at 57.1 ± 1.5 cal ka BP has been interpolated using a c...
