Figure 10. Extension of the ice cap over northern Europe at the glaciation maximum around 20 000 yr ago (tick line) and records of palaeoseismic events during the interstadial period around 30 000 BP; red dots = palaeoseismic liquefaction structures; blue dot = heavy faulting; purple crosses = dated precipitation of uranium in fractures (during this interstadial a substantial ice sheet persisted, but the limits are much debated).
