Abstract
Within the sequence of marine and glacial sediments from the northeastern Billefjorden region, Central Spitsbergen, five glacial episodes are distinguished. Two of them are referred to the late Pleistocene: the older, about 87 ka, which remains unnamed, and the younger, about 40-56 ka, which is named the Petuniabukta-Adolfbukta Stage and correlated with the Billefjorden Stage from the Kapp Ekholm section. The other three glacial episodes are referred to the Holocene: the oldest, about 8-9 ka (and named the Ebbadalen-Thomsondalen Stage), the middle, probably about 2-3 ka, and the youngest, correlated with the Little Ice Age. -from Authors
