Geochronological constraints on the deglaciation of former marine based ice streams provide information on the rates and modes by which marine based ice sheets have responded to external forcing factors such as climate change. This paper presents new... Read More about Implications of 36Cl exposure ages from Skye, northwest Scotland for the timing of ice stream deglaciation and deglacial ice dynamics.

Was Scotland deglaciated during the Younger Dryas? (2016)
Journal Article
Small, D., & Fabel, D. (2016). Was Scotland deglaciated during the Younger Dryas?. Quaternary Science Reviews, 145, 259-263. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2016.05.031

Recent work has produced data that challenges the canonical view that the Younger Dryas (c.12.9–11.7 ka) was a time of glacier expansion across the North Atlantic. Boulders on moraines located within the inner sector of the Scottish Loch Lomond Stadi... Read More about Was Scotland deglaciated during the Younger Dryas?.
