Description :
This paper presents an overview of the evidence presented in separate papers in this Special issue relating to glacier fluctuations in southernmost South America. The AA. examine new geomorphological, chronological and modelling data on glacier fluctuations in southernmost South America in latitudes 46-55°S during the last glacial-interglacial transition. Establishing leads and lags between the northern and southern hemispheres and between southern mid-latitudes and Antarctica is key to an appreciation of the mechanisms and resilience of global climate.
