Marine Pleistocene Deposits of the Taymyr Peninsula and their Age from ESR Dating

  • Chapter
Land-Ocean Systems in the Siberian Arctic

Abstract

Electron spin resonance (ESR) dating and lithostratigraphic studies of marine deposits on the TaymyrTaimyr Peninsula suggest that a marine sedimentary environment dominated during isotope Stages 4, 5, 7, 8, 9 and 15. The marine basins were predominantly cold and influenced by freshwater.
