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...
The last deglaciation of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet (SIS) from ∼21,000 to 13,000 yr ago is well-constrained by several hundred ¹⁰Be and ¹⁴C ages. The subsequent retreat history, however, is established primarily from minimum-limiting ¹⁴C ages and incomplete Baltic-Sea varve records, leaving a substantial fraction of final SIS retreat history...

We present the WD2014 chronology for the upper
part (0–2850 m; 31.2 ka BP) of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet
(WAIS) Divide (WD) ice core. The chronology is based on
counting of annual layers observed in the chemical, dust
and electrical conductivity records. These layers are caused
by seasonal changes...

Sea-level and ice-sheet databases have driven numerous advances in understanding the Earth system. We describe the challenges and offer best strategies that can be adopted to build self-consistent and standardised databases of geological and geochemical information used to archive palaeo-sea-levels and palaeo-ice-sheets. There are three phases in the development of...
