Description

Using the methods of radiocarbon (AMS) and opto-luminescent (OSL) dating the age of deposits of late pleistocene terraces on the Lower Yenisei between Turukhansk and Igarka was determined. It was ascertained that alluvium of terrace II mainly deposited at the beginning of marine isotope stage 3, i.e. approximately 45-60 thousand years ago. Fluvioglacial cover of terrace III was formed as a result of thawing of the Putoransky glaciers 75-60 thousand years ago

Abstract (Russian)

Методами радиоуглеродного (AMS) и оптико-люминесцентного (OSL) датирования определен возраст отложений послеледниковых енисейских террас приполярного Енисея, расположенных между Туруханском и Игаркой. Установлено, что аллювий террасы II в основном отлагался в начале морской изотопной стадии 3, примерно 45-60 тыс. лет назад. Флювиогляциальный покров террасы III сформирован при таянии путоранских ледников 75-60 тыс. лет назад
