“…position and number of palaeosols (Marković et al ., 2015), geomagnetic polarity reversal tie points (Marković et al ., 2011; Sümegi et al ., 2018), and sedimentological correlations with distant ice cores (An, 2000; Rousseau et al ., 2002; Antoine et al ., 2009). However, these methods assume continuous deposition and the absence of erosion, which has since been shown to be erroneous (Stevens et al ., 2006, 2018). In addition, stratigraphic correlation has proven more complicated than originally thought, for example, single soils corresponding to multiple soils at other sites (Marković et al ., 2008), and has led to ambiguous links ( cf Thiel et al ., 2014).…”
