“…Further to the west, Eemian deposits have been documented around the municipality of Poznań and the southern region of Wielkopolska (Straszewska and Stupnicka, 1979; Kuszell and Malkiewicz, 1999; Bruj and Roman, 2007). From the German Brandenburg and Mecklenburg regions, sediments of Eemian age have been reported by Eissmann (2002), Brose et al (2006), Hermsdorf and Strahl (2008), Rother et al (2019) and Börner et al (2018). Middle Pleniglacial deposits of the same age as the upper peats horizon from section GS3 (Fig.…”

The sedimentary succession exposed in the Gorzów Wielkopolski area includes Eemian Interglacial (MIS 5e) or Early Weichselian (MIS 5d-e) deposits. The sedimentary sequence has been the object of intense interdisciplinary study, which has resulted in the identification of at least two palaeolake horizons. Both yielded fossil remains of large mammals, alongside pollen and plant macrofossils. All these proxies have been used to reconstruct the environmental conditions prevailing at the time of deposition, as well as to define the geological context and the biochronological position of the fauna. Optically stimulated luminescence dating of the glaciofluvial layers of the GS3 succession to 123.6 ± 10.1 (below the lower palaeolake) and 72.0 ± 5.2 ka (above the upper palaeolake) indicate that the site formed during the Middle-Late Pleistocene (MIS 6 -MIS 5). Radiocarbon-dating of the lacustrine organic matter revealed a tight cluster of Middle Pleniglacial Period (MIS 3) ages in the range of~41-32 ka cal BP (Hengelo -Denekamp Interstadials). Holocene organic layers have also been found, with 14 C ages within a range of 4330-4280 cal BP (Neolithic). Pollen and plant macrofossil records, together with sedimentological and geochemical data, confirm the dating to the Eemian Interglacial.

“…For example, the transition from the Saalian deglaciation into the early Eemian (including the initial Eemian marine transgression) is documented in a sequence at the cliff of Klein Klütz Höved west of Wismar (Strahl et al, 1994;Menzel-Harloff and Meng, 2015;Kenzler et al, 2018). Furthermore, a lacustrine sequence comprising the complete transition from the Eemian into the Early Weichselian is well-documented at the outcrop "Hinterste Mühle" in Neubrandenburg Börner et al, 2018), and the Eemian profiles of Banzin and Beckentin in the southwest of Mecklenburg have recently been investigated, yielding new palaeoecological and U-Th data (Börner et al, 2015;. Hence, the number of sites with proven lacustrine Eemian deposits has increased markedly during recent years.…”

“…Hence, the number of sites with proven lacustrine Eemian deposits has increased markedly during recent years. Marine deposits of Eemian age are largely restricted to the present coastal areas (Menzel-Harloff and Meng, 2015;Börner et al, 2018;Kenzler et al, 2018). Therefore, the palaeogeography of the Eemian Sea differs significantly from that of the Holsteinian Sea, and it closely resembles the recent land-sea distribution (Müller, 2004a).…”

“…The "Eemian Warnow bay" (Fig. 1), where marine mollusc-bearing sands of Eemian age were deposited (Gehl, 1961;Müller, 2004b;Börner et al, 2018), is an exception. Another relic of the Eemian Interglacial is the greenish-coloured reduction zone in the upper part of the "m1" till (qsWA) of the Stoltera cliff section NW of Rostock.…”

Abstract. This paper aims to combine the knowledge of more than 100 years of Quaternary research in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania (Geinitz, 1922; Deecke, 1907; Schulz, 1967, 1971; von Bülow, 2000; Rühberg et al., 1995; Müller et al., 1995; Katzung, 2004; Kenzler et al., 2015, 2018) including a summary of the areas of specific interest, a general overview of the most recent scientific results and of the ongoing investigations presented during the Field Symposium of the INQUA PeriBaltic Working Group 2019.

“…However, infillings of these basins contain organic and mineral-organic series of the Eemian and Early Weichselian) ages. Such depressions were documented not only in the Polish Lowlands (Klatkowa, 1990;Kupryjanowicz, 2008;Rychel et al, 2014;Roman, 2016), but also in Belarus, Lithuania and Germany (Litt et al, 1996;Kisielienė, 1999;Savchenko & Pavlovskaya, 1999;Kühl & Litt, 2003;Šeirienė et al, 2014;Börner et al, 2017).…”

In the examined part of central Poland, there are numerous kettle-hole basins filled with mineral and biogenic sediments of the Eemian Interglacial and Early Weichselian. These basins are located in varied geological and geomorphological locations with variable thicknesses of the sediments and deposits. The infillings were investigated by lithological and palaeobotanic methods. Lithology of the biogenic sediments is diverse, primarily gyttja and peat, but also organic silt. A number of the documented sites contain a record of environmental changes throughout the glacial-interglacial cycle from the end of the Warta Stadial (Saalian) to Early Weichselian. Local geological, geomorphological and hydrological conditions influenced the possibility of continuous peat-lake accumulation and the timing of the completion of this accumulation. Biogenic sediments are covered with the Middle and Late Weichselian mineral sediments which indicate climatic changes and are the main reason for rapid and synchronic degradation of kettle-hole infillings.
