Chronology of Laurentide glaciation in New Jersey and the New York City area, United States

Abstract: Deposits of at least three glaciations are present in New Jersey and the New York City area. The oldest deposits are magnetically reversed. Pollen and stratigraphic relations suggest that they are from the earliest Laurentide advance at ~2.4 Ma. Deposits of a second advance are overlain by peat dated to 41 ka and so are pre-Marine Isotope Stage (pre-MIS) 2. Their relation to marine deposits indicates that they predate MIS 5 but postdate MIS 11 and may postdate MIS 7 or 9, suggesting an MIS 6 age. The most rece… Show more

“…A new LGM and deglacial varve chronology from the Hudson River valley in southern New York and northern New Jersey (Stanford et al, 2020;Fig. 3) supports maximum ice extent between 25 and 24 ka followed by rapid recession (80 m a −1 ) from 24 and 23.5 ka and then slowing to ~12 m a −1 from 23.5 to 22.5 ka.…”

“…Glacial varve chronologies provide the highest resolution record of ice recession through the northeastern US and serve as important benchmarks against which to compare the pace of ice recession implied by 14 C and 10 Be ages, but uncertainties remain about the timing of deglaciation according to varve records near the terminal moraine zone. Although the varve chronologies considered here Stanford et al, 2020) are continuous and thought to have minimal counting errors, they, like all varve chronologies, are floating. To use varve chronologies for dating ice margin recession they must be tied to the calendar timescale, typically by 14 C dating of organic material, preferably plant macrofossils identified to species level, within the varve sequence (see 'Varve chronologies', above).…”
