“…4,7,8). The tightest pre-LGM age clustering occurs in the westernmost regions of the study area with eleven deglaciation ages between 61 ka and 84 ka, in line with previous suggestions of glacial advance in these regions during marine isotope stage 4 (Owen et al, 2008(Owen et al, , 2012Zech et al, 2013).…”

“…Cosmogenic nuclide dating of the moraine yielded two age clusters of 136 -93 kyr and 86 -60 kyr (Zech et al, 2005a;Abramowski et al, 2006;Röhringer et al, 2012). The oldest glacial moraine from the Lake Yashilkul, the Southern Alichur Range and the Ailuitek Pass indicates the presence of paleo-glaciers down to the intra-plateau valley floors at ∼3600 m a.s.l.. Hummocky moraines accompanied by two lateral moraine ridges indicate a glacial advance during MIS 3, which is synchronous with an increased influence of the ISM (Zech et al, 2005a;Röhringer et al, 2012) as reported from the Hindu Kush, Karakoram Range and Tibet (e.g., Owen et al, 2002bOwen et al, ,a, 2008Owen et al, , 2012. Additional scattered younger ages are interpreted as prolonged ice degradation and/or glacial recession (Zech et al, 2005b).…”

“…Possible re-advances or recessional stages are indicated at ∼16 kyr and 13-12 kyr (Seong et al, 2009a). No evidence for glacial advances at MIS 3, but for MIS 4 and MIS 2 is found to the south in the Tashkurgan valley (Owen et al, 2012).…”
