The subdivision of the Quaternary of Norden: a discussion

View through CrossRef
The proposal for Quaternary stratigraphy of Norden published 1974 by Mangerud, Andersen, Berglund & Donner was discussed at a Nordie meeting 1978. On the basis of this discussion some recommendations are proposed here which deviate slightly from the 1974 proposal: (1) the term Flandrian should not be used in Norden until it is properly defined in the type area, (2) the Middle/Late Weichselian boundary should provisionally be defined as 25,000 14C years B. P. In addition it was stated that there is an urgent need for complete subdivision of the Weichselian into a continuous chronozone sequence.
