Abstract

Prior to ODP Leg 104 no continuous paleoclimatic records older than 0.4Ma were available from the Norwegian Sea. Only scattered information on the late Neogene and early Quaternary was provided from the sites drilled by DSDP Leg 38. No continental Plio-Pleistocene records older than the penultimate glacial (about 0.13 Ma) are known from the Scandinavian Peninsula, which has been the major accumulation area of late Cenozoic ice sheets in Europe.
