Retreating East Greenland Glaciers Uncover Plants Dating To The 16th ?" 17th Centuries

08-30-2021 • arclein

A new study documents a much warmer-than-today Early and Middle Holocene in East Greenland, a time when ice caps were "absent" or far less extensive than they are presently. Plant remains buried under retreating glaciers in East Greenland affirm these locations were not covered in glaciers as recently as 400 to 500 years ago. But the authors also report there were occasionally brief "cold stages" during the Holocene when Greenland's glacier extent advanced to today's levels.
