“…His theory of a post-Weichselian origin of Icelandic landslides has been corroborated by recent investigations (Decaulne et al, 2010;Cossart et al, 2014;Mercier et al, 2013), suggesting that the main landslide activity probably occurred during Preboreal/early Holocene transition times, in good correlation with the timing of the maximal rate of post-glacial rebound (between 10,000 year ± 300 year BP and 8150 ± 350 year; Rundgren et al, 1997;Biessy et al, 2008;Le Breton et al, 2010). These time constraints are consistent with significant paraglacial controls on landslide triggering.…”
