“…A very early thermoluminescence (TL) study yielded an age of 44 ka (Prószyñska-Bordas et al, 1988). This placed the War saw ice-dammed lake in the mid dle part of the last (Vistulian) Gla ci ation (Baraniecka and Konecka-Bet ley, 1987), and con tra dicted the gen eral palaeo geo graphi cal outline, be cause no di rect re cord of the gla ci ation have been found in cen tral Po land at that time.…”

The pa per pres ents the data on an Eemian-Late Gla cial sed i men tary se quence from the Zwierzyniec site, cen tral Po land. A num ber of bore holes doc u ment one or two or ganic lay ers that oc cur be neath one or two ho ri zons of clayey and silty de pos its of ice-dammed lakes. This study dem on strates to which ex tent the Zwierzyniec site can con trib ute to a better un der stand ing of the palaeoenvironmental changes dur ing the Eemian-Vistulian time-frame in cen tral Po land. To study it, a multi-proxy approach was ap plied, in volv ing: palynological and plant macrofossil anal y sis, study of round ing of quartz grains and mor phology of their sur face, and in ves ti ga tions of sand min er al ogy and till pe trog ra phy. The re sults show that a till bed is over lain by a sandy se ries cor re spond ing to the gla cial-inter gla cial tran si tion. Ei ther one or two dis tinct peaks of or ganic ac cu mu la tion are ev i denced by peat ho ri zons. The lower ho ri zon re cords spec tra with ha zel and horn beam, and did, there fore, ac cu mu late in the Eemian. Ob served only in some bore holes, the up per peat ho ri zon marks the BrÝrup (or the lower part of the Rederstall stadial) rep re sented by for est-steppe con di tions with patchy mo sa ics of larch and fur ther tran si tion into sedges and her baceous taxa. Lo cal ized in be tween the two peat se quences, the sandy ho ri zon marks a long-last ing ae olian trans for ma tion with weath er ing by frost in the Early Vistulian. Again, sig nif i cant changes of the palaeoenvironmental re gime oc curred, and are man i fested in the one or two ho ri zons of the glaciolacustrine sed i ments. This cor re sponded to the last gla ci ation in the region, when the ice-dammed lakes formed dur ing the Main Stadial.

“…The influence of freezing on the thermoluminescence of mineral grains in glaciogenic deposits (mostly tills) was the subject of experimental investigations carried out by Bluszcz (1989), Fedorowicz (1994, Prószyńska-Bordas et al (1988). These experiments revealed the reduction of thermoluminescence after successive freezethaw cycles but without distinct regularities (ibid.…”

Abstract:Distinctly diverse results of TL dating are obtained for the deposits with similar lithofacial features but filling morphologically differentiated karst palaeoforms (dolines, pipes, pockets). The infillings of dolines and pipes are mostly of the Saalian age. Based on sedimentological analysis, their formation conditions are related to sub-or/and terminoglacial environment. The age obtained for all infillings of pockets is underestimated in comparison with lithostratigraphic data. A close genetic relationship between these forms and periglacial conditions seems to indicate that the reduction of TL signal is mostly influenced by the disintegration of grains resulted from the repeated freezing and thawing of glaciogenic deposits. A considerable influence of frost weathering on the decrease of thermoluminescence intensity of mineral grains is indirectly confirmed by the results of experimental investigations consisting in the repeated TL measurements of pockets' infillings after successive freeze-thaw cycles.

This paper assesses the age of the Tagliamento Morainic Amphitheatre (northeast Italy), one of the largest morainic bodies in the piedmont area of northern Italy, using new stratigraphical and thermoluminescence (TL) data obtained from a site located on the inner flank of the amphitheatre. Two samples from a 12‐m‐thick stratum of fluviolacustrine, non‐varved, fine sand provided TL ages of approximately 110 ± 16 ka BP. This sandy layer lies below a 6‐m‐thick, massive (non‐laminated), clayey stratum. It is hypothesised that a large but short‐lived lake formed during the interglacial phase separating the penultimate and last glaciations. Assigning a ‘Riss’ age to the southeastern part of the amphitheatre therefore regains credence. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
