Talk:Cromerian interglacial

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is NOT Late Pleistocene!!!! The Late Pleistocene officially starts with the start of the Eemian. The stratotype of the base of the Late Pleistocene is in borehole (!) Amsterdam Terminal (Netherlands, in which is the type area of the Eemian). The Middle Pleistocene is defined by the Brunhes-Matuyama boundary at its base. Both boundaries are agreed at the last INQUA congress (2007). The other information, e.g. the correlation with the Alpine stage Günz-Mindel is also dubious. This is almost certainly incorrect.--Tom Meijer (talk) 10:56, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Two other remarks

• The assignment to the Category:Glaciology is incorrect. This is not glaciology. Besides, this category includes a lot of pages that have nothing to do with glaciology as well.
• I don't understand the relevance of the picture on this page. The figure explains American and alpine terminology and not British, what the page is about. What is 'Yarmouth'? I know the 'Yarmouth Roads Formation' This is a Quaternary seismic formation in the present North Sea. This does not occur on shore. --Tom Meijer (talk) 11:06, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
