Special attention was paid to Mid-Eemian, for which records of thermophilic taxa were found. During the next phase the eutrophic lake shallowed, and a peatbog was formed. These processes were asynchronous and suggesting three separate lake basins. Sediments recording the longest phase of the interglacial revealed a long pause in sedimentation caused probably by a combination of factors (drop in the water level and increase in climate continentality).</p></p><p class="keywords"><strong>Keywords</strong>: <a href="search.html?keywords=Eemian+Interglacial+(MIS+5e)&query_type=and">Eemian Interglacial (MIS 5e)</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=sedimentation+gaps&query_type=and">sedimentation gaps</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=climate+changes&query_type=and">climate changes</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=palaeobotanical+analysis&query_type=and">palaeobotanical analysis</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=Central+Poland&query_type=and">Central Poland</a></p> <p class="address"><span class="author">Anna Hrynowiecka</span> [<a href="mailto:ahry@pgi.gov.pl">ahry@pgi.gov.pl</a>], Marine Geology Branch Polish Geological Institute – National Research Institute Kościerska 5, 80-328 Gdańsk: Poland<br><span class="author">Dorota Brzozowicz</span>, Faculty of Geographical Sciences University of Łódź Narutowicza 88, 90-139 Łódź: Poland<br><span class="author">Marcin Żarski</span>, Polish Geological Institute – National Research Institute Rakowiecka 4, 00-975 Warszawa: Poland<br><span class="author">Renata Stachowicz-Rybka</span>, Palaeobotany and Palaeoenvironment Group W.

Many years’ research and published concepts expressed in numerous publications since the beginning of the 20th century are presented. A runoff in the Warsaw-Berlin ice-marginal spillway was treated as impossible during the LGM, because ofa high watershed zone close to Łęczyca. The floor of this ice-marginal spillway is filled by silt and sand series correlated with the Late Vistulian and sand with peat of the Late Vistulian and Holocene. However, a relation of the glaciolacustrine sediments and the spillway floor indicates that the latter is masked by deposits that postdate the outflow episode. Proglacial and extraglacial waters were collected in the Warsaw ice-dammedlake and were drained westwards through the Warsaw-Berlin ice-marginal spillway.</p></p><p class="keywords"><strong>Keywords</strong>: <a href="search.html?keywords=Weichselian&query_type=and">Weichselian</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=Warsaw-Berlin+ice-marginal+spillway&query_type=and">Warsaw-Berlin ice-marginal spillway</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=Warsaw+Basin&query_type=and">Warsaw Basin</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=proglacial+drainage&query_type=and">proglacial drainage</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=Last+Glacial+Maximum&query_type=and">Last Glacial Maximum</a></p> <p class="address"><span class="author">Jacek Forysiak</span> [<a href="mailto:jacek.forysiak@geo.uni.lodz.pl">jacek.forysiak@geo.uni.lodz.pl</a>], Department of Geology and Geomorphology University of Łódź Narutowicza 88, 90-139 Łódź: Poland<br><span class="author">Aleksandra Majecka</span>, Faculty of Geology University of Warsaw Żwirki i Wigury 93, 02-089 Warsaw: Poland<br><span class="author">Leszek Marks</span>, Faculty of Geology University of Warsaw Żwirki i Wigury 93, 02-089 Warsaw: Poland<br><span class="author">Łukasz Bujak</span>, Faculty of Geology University of Warsaw Żwirki i Wigury 93, 02-089 Warsaw: Poland<br><span class="author">Juliusz Twardy</span>, Department of Quaternary Studies, Institute of Earth Sciences, Faculty of Geographical Sciences, University of Łódź, ul.

This paper aims to show the chronological diversity of sites dating from the beginning of the Weichselian glaciation (MIS 5a – MIS 5d, GI-19 – GI-23, Greenland Interstadials) to the middle part of MIS 3 (GI-8 – GI-10). We considered sites dated mainly by thermoluminescence dating (OSL) and radiocarbondating. We relied on a series of recent datings. We attempted to analyse the stratigraphic integrity, the archaeological finds and the numerical dating results. Through OSL dating, we could establish the chronology of Micoquian sites, previously regarded as middle Pleistocene, to the last glaciation. The dating compilation also shows that the Late Middle Palaeolithic and Early Upper Palaeolithic (EUP) sites are unlikely to overlap, or if they do, it is only over a small period. Unfortunately, this period is poorly interpreted because it spans the limit of the radiocarbon dating reliability and goes beyond the bounds of the calibration curve. Confronting the datings of the Lincombian-Ranisian-Jerzmanowician (LRJ) complex and the oldest finds associated with Aurigniacian sites in Poland lead to the conclusion that these sites may have co-occurred for some time.</p></p><p class="keywords"><strong>Keywords</strong>: <a href="search.html?keywords=Middle+Palaeolithic&query_type=and">Middle Palaeolithic</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=Early+Upper+Palaeolithic&query_type=and">Early Upper Palaeolithic</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=optoluminescence&query_type=and">optoluminescence</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=radiocarbon+dating&query_type=and">radiocarbon dating</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=Poland&query_type=and">Poland</a></p> <p class="address"><span class="author">Andrzej Wiśniewski</span> [<a href="mailto:andrzej.wisniewski@uwr.edu.pl">andrzej.wisniewski@uwr.edu.pl</a>], Institute of Archaeology University of Wrocław Szewska 48, 50-139 Wrocław: Poland<br><span class="author">Dariusz Bobak</span>, Institute of Archaeology University of Rzeszów Hoffmanowej 8, 35-016 Rzeszów: Poland<br><span class="author">Marta Połtowicz-Bobak</span>, Institute of Archaeology University of Rzeszów Hoffmanowej 8, 35-016 Rzeszów: Poland<br><span class="author">Piotr Moska</span>, Institute of Physics Silesian University of Technology Konarskiego 22B, 44-100 Gliwice: Poland</p> </div></div></div> <div class="paper"><p class="title"><a href="https://www.geographiapolonica.pl/article/item/13957.html" title="Unobvious geoheritage in sacral buildings: millstones in churches of NE Poland from a geological and geomorphological perspective, Piotr Czubla, Dariusz Brykała, Maciej Dąbski, Piotr Gierszewski, Mirosław Błaszkiewicz, Zachariasz Mosakowski, Piotr Lamparski, Geographia Polonica (2024) vol. 97, iss. 3, 327-354">Unobvious geoheritage in sacral buildings: millstones in churches of NE Poland from a geological and geomorphological perspective</a></p><p class="authors"><a href="/author/id/7255.html">Piotr Czubla</a>, <a href="/author/id/5790.html">Dariusz Brykała</a>, <a href="/author/id/4832.html">Maciej Dąbski</a>, <a href="/author/id/6537.html">Piotr Gierszewski</a>, <a href="/author/id/6040.html">Mirosław Błaszkiewicz</a>, <a href="/author/id/7256.html">Zachariasz Mosakowski</a>, <a href="/author/id/5520.html">Piotr Lamparski</a></p><p class="pages">Geographia Polonica (2024) vol. 97, iss. 3, pp. 327-354<span class="disphide"> | <a href="https://rcin.org.pl/igipz/Content/242276/WA51_279064_r2024-t97-no3_G-Polonica-Czubla.pdf" class="piwik_download" title="Unobvious geoheritage in sacral buildings: millstones in churches of NE Poland from a geological and geomorphological perspective, Piotr Czubla, Dariusz Brykała, Maciej Dąbski, Piotr Gierszewski, Mirosław Błaszkiewicz, Zachariasz Mosakowski, Piotr Lamparski, Geographia Polonica (2024) vol. 97, iss. 3, 327-354"><img style="vertical-align: -4px;" src="/system/themes/default/images/iconPDF.gif"> Full text</a></span><br>doi: <a href="https://doi.org/10.7163/GPol.0282">https://doi.org/10.7163/GPol.0282</a></p><div class="ce_accordion block"><div class="toggler">Further information</div><div class="accordion"><p class="abstract"><strong>Abstract</strong> <p>The article highlights the importance of medieval churches with embedded millstones as geocultural objects with a great geotouristic and educational potential. In the lowland areas of Northeastern Poland, 79 millstones and their semi-finished products were inventoried. Their sizes ranged from 70 to 100 cm in diameter. The majority of them were made of erratic boulders, mainly granitoids of Fennoscandian origin. Additionally, gneisses, sandstones, pegmatites, and basaltoid were also identified. An attempt was made to determine the degree of weathering of the millstones over several hundred years of exposure to external conditions. Measurements of moisture content and salinity of the walls surrounding 10 millstones embedded in the walls of 8 churches were taken three times (in spring, summer, and winter). Lower wall moisture was observed in the vicinity of the millstones, but only in the case of three walls, the salinity of the mortar binding the bricks and stones was at a low level. A weak but statistically significant negative correlation was found between the age of the churches and the hardness of the millstones measured with a Schmidt hammer.</p></p><p class="keywords"><strong>Keywords</strong>: <a href="search.html?keywords=geoheritage&query_type=and">geoheritage</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=millstones&query_type=and">millstones</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=medieval+churches&query_type=and">medieval churches</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=petrography&query_type=and">petrography</a>, <a href="search.html?keywords=weathering&query_type=and">weathering</a></p> <p class="address"><span class="author">Piotr Czubla</span> [<a href="mailto:piotr.czubla@geo.uni.lodz.pl">piotr.czubla@geo.uni.lodz.pl</a>], Department of Geology and Geomorphology Faculty of Geographical Sciences, University of Lodz Narutowicza 88, 90-139 Łódź: Poland<br><span class="author">Dariusz Brykała</span> [<a href="mailto:darek@twarda.pan.pl">darek@twarda.pan.pl</a>], Institute of Geography and Spatial Organization Polish Academy of Sciences, Kopernika 19, 87-100 Toruń, Poland<br><span class="author">Maciej Dąbski</span>, Chair of Physical Geography Faculty of Geography and Regional Studies, University of Warsaw Krakowskie Przedmieście 30, 00-927 Warszawa: Poland<br><span class="author">Piotr Gierszewski</span> [<a href="mailto:piotr.gierszewski@geopan.torun.pl">piotr.gierszewski@geopan.torun.pl</a>], Institute of Geography and Spatial Organization Polish Academy of Sciences, Kopernika 19, 87-100 Toruń, Poland<br><span class="author">Mirosław Błaszkiewicz</span> [<a href="mailto:mirek@twarda.pan.pl">mirek@twarda.pan.pl</a>], Institute of Geography and Spatial Organization Polish Academy of Sciences, Kopernika 19, 87-100 Toruń, Poland<br><span class="author">Zachariasz Mosakowski</span> [<a href="mailto:zachary@twarda.pan.pl">zachary@twarda.pan.pl</a>], Laboratory for Interdisciplinary Research into the Anthropocene Institute of Geography and Spatial Organization, Polish Academy of Sciences Kopernika 19, 87-100 Toruń: Poland<br><span class="author">Piotr Lamparski</span> [<a href="mailto:piotr.lamparski@twarda.pan.pl">piotr.lamparski@twarda.pan.pl</a>], Institute of Geography and Spatial Organization Polish Academy of Sciences, Kopernika 19, 87-100 Toruń, Poland</p> </div></div></div> </div>  </div> </div> <div id="clear"></div> </div> </div> <footer id="footer"> <div class="inside">  <div style="float:left;"><a href="http://www.igipz.pan.pl/home_en.html"><img class="first" src="/tl_files/themes/gp/igipz-logo.jpg"></a>© 2013-2024 <a href="http://www.igipz.pan.pl/home_en.html">Institute of Geography and Spatial Organization Polish Academy of Sciences</a> :: <a href="http://www.igipz.pan.pl/polityka-cookies-igipz.html">Polityka cookies</a><span style="display:none;"><a href="mailto:office@igipz.pan.pl">office</a></span></div><div style="float:right;"><a href="sitemap-en.html" title="Sitemap"><img src="/tl_files/themes/gp/mapa_x20.jpg"></a><a id="bookmarkme" href="#" rel="sidebar" title="Bookmark this page"><img src="/tl_files/themes/gp/ulubione_x20.jpg"></a><a href="mailto:geographia.polonica@twarda.pan.pl" title="Contact"><img class="last" src="/tl_files/themes/gp/kontakt_x20.jpg"></a></div>  </div> </footer> </div> <script> (function($) { window.addEvent('domready', function() { new Accordion($$('div.toggler'), $$('div.accordion'), { opacity: false, alwaysHide: true, onActive: function(tog, el) { el.setProperty('aria-hidden', 'false'); tog.addClass('active'); tog.getNext('div').fade('in'); tog.setProperty('aria-expanded', 'true'); return false; }, onBackground: function(tog, el) { el.setProperty('aria-hidden', 'true'); tog.removeClass('active'); tog.getNext('div').fade('out'); tog.setProperty('aria-expanded', 'false'); return false; } }); $$('div.toggler').each(function(el) { el.setProperty('role', 'tab'); el.setProperty('tabindex', 0); el.addEvents({ 'keypress': function(event) { if (event.code == 13) { this.fireEvent('click'); } }, 'focus': function() { this.addClass('hover'); }, 'blur': function() { this.removeClass('hover'); }, 'mouseenter': function() { this.addClass('hover'); }, 'mouseleave': function() { this.removeClass('hover'); } }); }); $$('div.ce_accordion').each(function(el) { el.setProperty('role', 'tablist'); }); $$('div.accordion').each(function(el) { el.setProperty('role', 'tabpanel'); }); }); })(document.id); </script>  <script> var _paq = _paq || []; _paq.push(['setDocumentTitle', document.title]); _paq.push(['setDownloadExtensions', '7z|aac|arc|arj|asf|asx|avi|bin|csv|doc|exe|flv|gif|gz|gzip|hqx|jar|jpe|jpeg|js|mp2|mp3|mp4|mpe|mpeg|mov|movie|msi|msp|pdf|phps|png|ppt|qtm|ram|rar|sea|sit|tar|tgz|orrent|txt|wav|wma|wmv|wpd|xls|xml|z|zip']); _paq.push(["trackPageView"]); _paq.push(["enableLinkTracking"]); try { (function() { var u=(("https:" == document.location.protocol) ?
