HOME RESEARCH FACILITIES PEOPLE ... PUBLICATIONS DR. ANDERS CARLSON ABOUT US Our research group in the Department of Geoscience studies the past behavior of ice sheets and glaciers and their interaction with ocean circulation, climate and sea level. We use a variety of techniques involving applied geochemistry in both terrestrial and marine settings, ice-sheet models, and climate models. Our research group is part of the much larger Quaternary focus across campus at the University of Wisconsin-Madison . We also work closely with the Center for Climatic Research

Global Gridded Pliocene and Late Quaternary Sea Level U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 96-000 by Peter N. Schweitzer and Robert S. Thompson Image depicting the largest changes in global eustatic sea level that have been inferred from geological studies. The light blue color shows an estimate of the coastline of the eastern United States during the last glacial maximum, about 20,000 years ago. The dark green shows the modern coastline, and the lighter shades of green show the coastlines that may have existed during the warm climatic interval of the middle Pliocene epoch, about 3 million years ago. This information is in preliminary release from USGS for purposes of testing by general users. It should not (yet) be cited in official scientific communications. Formal metadata (documentation) is available in Contents Introduction Data Sources TerrainBase Data Products ... Contacts Introduction This report is a collection of digital information about major changes in global sea level that occurred in the past at times when Earth's climate was significantly different than it is today. Its objective is to provide data on global land distribution and sea level for use with general circulation models. These data are assembled using digital data previously published by others, modified for these purposes via simple algorithms. Results are expressed in formats suitable for use in spreadsheet and image-processing applications. Formal metadata provide more complete documentation for these data. Metadata elements describing the specific products are listed after the overall metadata below. These partial metadata records are intended to supplement the main record to provide complete documentation of the products.

Piacenzian older In Europe and North America, the Holocene is subdivided into Preboreal Boreal Atlantic Subboreal , and Subatlantic stages of the Blytt-Sernander time scale . There are many regional subdivisions for the Upper or Late Pleistocene, usually these represent locally recognized cold ( glacial ) and warm ( interglacial ) periods. The last glacial period ends with the cold Younger Dryas substage. The Quaternary Period is the most recent of the three periods of the Cenozoic Era in the geologic time scale of the ICS It follows the Tertiary Period, spanning 2.588 ± 0.005 million years ago to the present. The Quaternary includes two geologic epochs : the Pleistocene and the Holocene Epochs.

It was introduced by Jules Desnoyers in 1829 for sediments of France 's Seine Basin that seemed clearly to be younger than Tertiary Period rocks . The Quaternary Period follows the Tertiary Period and extends to the present. The Quaternary covers the time span of glaciations classified as the Pleistocene , and includes the present interglacial period, the

Irish Settlement Studies INTRODUCTION THE 'IRISH SETTLEMENT STUDIES' DISCUSSION GROUP The ' Irish Settlement Studies ' discussion group was founded in October 2000. Discussion in thr past has tended to centre on the medieval and prehistoric periods, but these are by no means the limits of this group's remit. The topics open to group members are well expressed in the above paragraph. Current membership stands at 115. To join the discussion group, simply click the link below to create an auto-addressed email, and press 'Send'. You will shortly receive via email a confirmation request to which you must reply. Within minutes your membership will be logged and you can begin interacting with other group members online. New members are encouraged to send an initial message to the group introducing themselves, and mentioning their areas of interest in settlement in Ireland. Click here to subscribe to ' Irish Settlement Studies Members and non-members alike can freely access the group's archives.

The Quaternary is an interval with dramatic and frequent changes in global climate. Warm interglacials alternated with cold ice ages. The Earth is right now entering a time of unusually warm climate. Significant and potentially rapid environmental changes could pose major challenges for human habitability. The expertise of Quaternary scientists is to interpret the changing world of the glacial ages and their impact on our planet's surface environments. Quaternary palaeoclimatic investigations play a key role in the understanding of the possible future climate change on our planet. The next (XXVIII) INQUA Congress will be held in Bern, Switzerland 20th July - 27th July, 2011
