Meer over het boek

The book presents a comprehensive overview of four decades of glacial-geomorphological research in Central and High Asia, establishing connections between Quaternary science and paleoclimatology. It utilizes recent geomorphological data to reconstruct the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), detailing an extensive area in High Asia that spanned approximately three million square kilometers. This significant study enhances understanding of glacial dynamics and climate history in the region.
