Description :
In this paper, exposure ages are presented for glacial deposits older than the last glacial maximum. The chronology demonstrates that a major mountain glaciation occurred during marine oxygen isotope stage 6 in Patagonia and indicates that Quaternary ice age maxima are global in nature despite spatial differences in solar insolation.
