Description :
The AA. discuss the timing of the last, and most dramatic, pluvial event recorded in Lake Lahontan and Searles Lake, and of distinct dry periods recorded as evaporite layers in the Searles basin. The last major pluvial events in these closed basins happened during the transition interval between the last iceberg discharge event Heinrich 1, (14 500 C 14 yr B.P.) and the Bølling-Allerød warming (12 800 C 14 yr B.P.).
