Quaternary Glaciers of Turkey

Over the last decade, knowledge of Late Quaternary glacial geology of Turkey has increased. The numerical ages obtained from cosmogenic isotope analysis of glacial landforms are first in the region, and they were essentially used to build the local glacial chronologies. These results were also the basis of paleoenvironmental interpretations. This book presents the recent cosmogenic chronologies from different mountains of Turkey, and provides a paleoclimatic insights coupled with a physico-glacial model. Book also contains a bibliography section for glacial studies in Turkey, and a section for laboratory procedures for cosmogenic chlorine-36 analysis.
