THE LAST GLACIAL MAXIMUM AND DEGLACIATION OF THE KRKONOSE MOUNTAINS, CZECH REPUBLIC: EVIDENCE OF ASYNCHRONAEITY WITH ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) |
 | | The location of the Krkonose (Giant) Mountains of the Czech Republic/Polish borders is highly significant, lying in the corridor between the Scandinavian ice sheet and the Alpine ice field, and the first significant mountain belt beyond the limits of the Scandinavian ice sheet during the LGM. |
