Radiocarbon age of the youngest parts of the yedoma strata in the reference sections of the Pleistocene polygonal ice wedge complexes are given. At the turn of the Pleistocene and Holocene - 10 thousand radiocarbon years ago - a radical restructuring of the geocryological situation took place, which...
