  • Southwest Greenland Shelf Glaciation During MIS 4 More Extensive Than During the Last Glacial Maximum
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Southwest Greenland shelf glaciation during MIS 4 more extensive than during the Last Glacial Maximum Marit-Solveig Seidenkrantz 1*, Antoon Kuijpers2, Jesper Olsen 3, Christof Pearce 1, Sofa Lindblom4, Johan Ploug1,5, Piotr Przybyło1,6 & Ian Snowball7 Although geological and modelling evidence indicate that the last glacial inception in North America was in NE Canada, little is known about the glacial response of the nearby western Greenland Ice Sheet (GIS) during the glacial advance of marine oxygen isotope stage 4 (MIS4). Our multi-proxy study of a marine sediment core collected about 60 km southwest of the Outer Hellefsk Moraines demonstrates that in the southern Davis Strait region the most extreme Greenland shelf glaciation of the last glacial cycle occurred during MIS 4, with another prominent glacial advance at 37–33 kyr BP. During those periods the GIS likely reached the Outer Hellefsk Moraines in this area. Except for these two periods, our data suggest signifcant advection of relatively warm Irminger Sea Water by the West Greenland Current since MIS 4. This advection likely limited the extent of the MIS2 glaciation on the SW Greenland shelf. Decreased precipitation over southwestern Greenland predicted by atmospheric models as a downstream efect of a much larger MIS2 Laurentide Ice Sheet may have played an additional role. At the end of the last interglacial (Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5e) approximately 115,000 years ago (115 kyr BP, before present), the astronomically-driven decline of northern summer insolation and resulting atmospheric and ocean feedback processes led towards the frst step in glacial ice sheet formation in the North American region1.

One possible explanation for this is that the landscape provided an especially favourable environment for Palaeolithic hunters. To examine this, the local and regional environment is reconstructed through the analysis of pollen and plant macrofossils from a small kettle hole and is discussed in relation to human presence in the region. The kettle hole is situated close to a Palaeolithic occupation site with artefacts belonging to the Federmesser and Bromme Cultures. The lake sediments encompass the Bølling, Allerød, Younger Dryas and the early Preboreal biostratigraphic periods. An increase in charcoal dust between c. 14,000 and 13,900 cal. BP may be related to the occupation site. This study shows that an ecotone was positioned between present-day Denmark and northern Germany during a large part of the Late Glacial period.
