Provenance analysis of Late Pleistocene Arctic glacial marine and lacustrine sediments:implications for deglaciation dynamics
Abstract In this PhD thesis glacial sediment from the East Siberian Sea/Shelf, central Arctic Ocean, and Baltic Sea were investigated in order to present interactions between the Late Pleistocene deglaciations and sediment deposition in marine and lacustrine environments in the Northern Hemisphere....
