Neoglaciation in the Spanish Pyrenees: a multiproxy challenge

Abstract: Following the Holocene Thermal Maximum, dated between 11 and 6 ka, the Neoglacial period was one of the progressive, fluctuating cooling that peaked during the Little Ice Age (LIA). The almost total absence of glacial tills prior to the LIA in the Pyrenees forces recourse to a high variety of proxies, including lacustrine sediments, palynological records, dendroclimatology, ice cores from glaciers and caves, speleothems, historical documentation and glacial records. This has enabled us to identify several cold… Show more

“…the LIA, as inferred from three polished surfaces dated at 3500 ± 400, 2500 ± 300 and ± 100 Cl yr BP, indicating the occurrence of different deglaciation phases, and therefore glacial re-advances prior to these dates (García-Ruiz et al, 2020). Most likely, the voluminous moraine at the foot of the Monte Perdido Massif, which undoubtedly was deposited during the LIA, incorporates minor moraines and till from prior Neoglacial advances, as has been reported in other Pyrenean cirques (Crest et al, 2017;Palacios et al, 2017).…”

“…According to the age-depth model, the MPG experienced a spectacular retreat (Fig. 4D), including the complete melting of some minor glaciers in the Marboré Cirque (García-Ruiz et al, 2020). Nevertheless, during the MCA part of MPG was preserved, as we find ice from 0 to 700 CE.…”

“…Vertical cores were not recovered because the glacier does not meet the usual glacio-meteorological and topographical criteria required to obtain a preserved ice core stratigraphy. The unfulfilled criteria include low temperatures to prevent water percolation and a large extension and flat surface topography to minimise the influence of glacier flow (Garzonio et al, 2018). Samples were collected in an area with no evidence of major current ice movement, as confirmed by results from interferometric radar and global navigation satellite system (GNSS) measurements (López- Moreno et al, 2019).…”
