南乔治亚岛提供了地球主要海洋区域冰河后环境变化的陆地记录。该记录代表了南部西风带,并提供了南极洲与南美洲南部温度带之间的联系。来自冰川地貌学、斜坡地层学以及泥炭和湖泊核心环境指标分析的证据被用来解释这一记录。全冰川冰盖的消耗被大约在大约 10 年前的出口冰川和山谷冰川的晚冰期斯塔德所中断。 10,000 年 B.P.植物在低海拔地区开始生长(
South Georgia provides a terrestrial record of postglacial environmental change from a largely oceanic zone of the Earth. The record is representative of the southern westerlies and provides a link between Antarctica and the temperature zones of southern South America. Evidence from glacial geomorphology, slope stratigraphy, and analyses of environmental indicators in peat and lake cores is used to interpret this record. Wastage of the full-glacial ice cap was interrupted by a late-glacial stade of the outlet and valley glaciers before ca. 10,000 yr B.P. Plant growth had begun at low altitude (
