Terrestrial chronologies from southern Greenland provide a detailed deglacial history of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GIS). The northern GIS margin history, however, is less established. Here we present surface exposure ages from moraines associated with two large outlet glaciers, Petermann and Humboldt, in the northwestern sector of the GIS. These...
We review and synthesize the geologic record that
constrains the sources of sea level rise and freshwater discharge
to the global oceans associated with retreat of ice
sheets during the last deglaciation. The Last Glacial Maximum
(~26–19 ka) was terminated by a rapid 5–10 m sea
level rise at 19.0–19.5...
