The ~ 12.1ka BP Vedde Ash, a bimodal tephra of basaltic and rhyolitic composition linked to the Katla Volcanic System on Iceland, is an important chronostratigraphic marker for the North Atlantic Region and Northern Europe. In some depositional environments however, the use of the Vedde Ash as a mar...
