Reconstruction of former permafrost is based on specific indicators which represent relics of features developed above or within the permafrost. Their interpretation in terms of genesis and (palaeo)climatic significance, however, is in some cases still under debate. Previously the reconstruction of the periglacial environment in Europe was limited to permafrost mapping during the coldest time of the last glaciation. Today a much more refined evolution of the palaeoclimate of the last glacial has been established, thanks to a considerable increase in registered periglacial indicators, a better understanding of the corresponding climate conditions, and more accurate and reliable dating of the periglacial phenomena.
