H. Luckman Premier symposium de la CANQUA Résumé de l'article Volume 40, numéro 1, 1986 Les moraines bien développées mises en place au cours du Petit Âge glaciaire sont les témoins les plus importants des glaciations holocènes dans les URI : https://id.erudit.org/iderudit/032619ar Rocheuses. On passe ici en revue les principales techniques de datation DOI : https://doi.org/10.7202/032619ar (sources de documentation, dendrochronologie, lichénométrie et datations au radiocarbone) appropriées à cette période et on présente les données résumées Aller au sommaire du numéro sur 33 glaciers. On a reconnu trois principales phases de développement des moraines caractérisées par: i) quelques tronçons de moraines imparfaitement datées entre 1500 et 1700 ap. J.-C. ; ii) une avancée maximale au début du XVIIIe s. pour environ le tiers des glaciers; iii) des récurrences majeures survenues de Éditeur(s) la deuxième moitié à la fin du XIXe s. qui ont rejoint sinon dépassé les positions Les Presses de l'Université de Montréal atteintes en i) et ii). Certaines datations au radiocarbone à partir d'arbres ravagés démontrent qu'une avancée glaciaire aux XIIe et XIIIe s. s'est approchée, jusqu'à 400 et 1400 m respectivement, des positions atteintes à ISSN l'apogée du Petit Age glaciaire aux glaciers Robson et Kiwa.
