Abstract
- The glacial landscape of northern Brandenburg, especially the Eberswalde–Chorin area, is one of the most important study areas of Quaternary research in northern Germany, not only with respect to its research history, but especially with regard to new mapping, sedimentological logging, and dating results using up-to-date methodologies. These new results have added an important puzzle-piece contributing to the development of a new concept of ice dynamics in the SW sector of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet (SIS) during Marine Isotope Stage 2 (MIS 2). After an introduction to the glacial geomorphology of the area, key sites visited during the field trip are explained, and the recent results are introduced and discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
