摘要：Interglacial deposits in Denmark have traditionally been referred to the Cromerian complex (Hareskovian), Holsteinian or Eemian stages. However, based on studies of sedimentcores from the deep sea many more than three Quaternaryinterglacials have been documented, and in other parts ofnorth-western Europe it is becoming increasingly clear thatthe on-shore Quaternary sequences are much more complexthan previously believed. Interglacial deposits are characterised by plant and animal remains indicating longer periodswith climatic conditions similar to or warmer than today,whereas interstadial deposits were formed during shortertime spans and usually contain remains of relatively coldadapted, arctic or sub-arctic species. Interglacial and interstadial deposits can be dated more or less precisely, and thusprovide information about the relative age of glacial deposits.
