Bulletin de l'Association française pour l'étude du quaternaire - Année 1968 - Volume 5 - Numéro 4 - Pages 281-288This is an attempt to incite the different specialists to clarify the terms used for the würmian oscillations. What we are intending to show out is the confusion caused by the numbering of Würm and the numbering of loess, as well as the confusion araised by the use of the same terms for different periods. We have been highly particular about respecting the dates and correspondances proposed by the authors themselves, though we know how uncertain the correlations still are. We would like this table to be especially considered as a base for a discussion in establishing würmian chronology. 8 pages Source : Persée ; Ministère de la jeunesse, de l’éducation nationale et de la recherche, Direction de l’enseignement supérieur, Sous-direction des bibliothèques et de la documentation.
