“…In addition, a model of the LIS at the end of the Oldest Dryas (~15 ka) and during the Bølling-Allerød (~14.2 ka) found the surface balance increased during the Bølling , supporting the varve thickness record. As the ice sheet retreated further inland the Pineo Ridge moraine complex in coastal Maine was abandoned around the Bølling Interstadial (14.5 ± 0.7 ka; Koester et al, 2017) followed by the Littleton-Bethlehem moraine, just north of the Presidential Range in northern New Hampshire (13.8 ± 0.7 ka, n = 4; Balco et al, 2009;Thompson et al, 2017), and the Androscoggin moraine in northeastern New Hampshire and western Maine (13.2 ± 0.7 ka, n = 7; Bromley et al, 2015) before retreating further north into Canada.…”
