During the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (MPT), the Earth adopted a 100,000-year glacial-interglacial cycle compared to the previous 41,000-year cycle. Scientists have now discovered landforms ...

The Pleistocene Epoch had arrived, a series of cooling and warming trends that would span more than 2.5 million years. Roughshod tectonic maneuvering was replaced with the glacier’s scalpel.

Now hop all the way to when there was a lot of activity on Lake Erie 14,000 years ago, activities to be surmised from the very active Pleistocene glacier era and the Wisconsinan era—there could ...

She has specialized in glacial marine sedimentation of the Ice Age, glacial and Pleistocene geology, geomorphology, the geology of Alaska, and Alaskan glaciers. She recommends Living Ice ...

"The Tibetan Plateau was previously thought to be uninhabitable during the last glacial maximum," said Li. Evidence found in the region shows that humans lived on the Tibetan Plateau before and after ...

The results of this work will be the production of a local map of Late Pleistocene-early Holocene glacial deposits and a numerical glacial chronology for this area. These products will serve as the ...
