Haslach-Mindel interglacial
The Haslach-Mindel interglacial (
erosion phase which follows the Haslach and precedes the Mindel glacial stage. It thus corresponds to the stratigraphic gap between the Haslach beds (Haslacher Schotter) and the Tannheim-Laupheim gravels (Tannheim-Laupheimer Schotter) northeast of the Rhine Glacier.[1][2][3]
Modern research has found that the old glacial terms correspond to many glacial cycles, as identified by
marine isotope stages (MIS), making the term Haslach-Mindel superfluous. The term is not used in the 2016 version of the detailed stratigraphic table by the German Stratigraphic Commission.[4]
