Holocene glacier fluctuations.Historic, stratigraphic and geomorphicevidence, producing a discontinuousrecord of glacier advance phases.Evidence of retreat phases was largelydestroyed by sub-sequentsequent advances.
Subdivisions of the HoloceneOn the base of most recent studies, the Holocenehistory of mountain glaciers in the Northern hemi-sphere can be broadly subdived in three mainperiods:- a first period (11.7 to ~ 10.2 kyr BP)corresponding to the Preboreal chronozone- a second period ( ~ 10.2 ÷ 5 kyr BP)corresponding ~ to the Boreal and Atlanticchronozones (informallyindicated as Hypsithermal)- a third period (the last ~ 5 000 years)corresponding to Subboreal-SubatlanticSubatlantic chronoz.often named Neoglaciation or Neoglacial
