Resumen
The Younger Dryas climatic event meant an abrupt cooling in Europe between 12,900 and 11,700 years BP, after a general climate amelioration trend since approximately 16,000 years BP. As a consequence glaciers grew all over Europe, although much more neatly in NW Europe. A project of climate modelling during Younger Dryas after palaeoglaciers reconstruction is presented. We intend to describe the ELA shift from N to S and W to E at the main ranges across Europe by using published and dated moraines records, from which palaeoglacier surface will be recovered and ELA calculated. The final intention is to get reliable temperature-precipitation data from the shift of ELA and include it into palaeoclimatic models of this event. Works in the Iberian Peninsula will initially focus on the Cantabrian Range, where Younger Dryas has not been dated yet.
