Abstract
The author identifies..."some disturbing and persistent problems that tend to defy solution." Three broad areas of uncertainty are discussed: (1) the post-Wisconsin retreat phase; (2) energetics of the post-Wisconsin phase; and (3) bioclimate of the displaced biota. The author reviews present knowledge of paleoclimates in North America, including further unanswered questions and conflicting evidence. There is a need for more cross-specialist pooling of evidence and experience in paleoclimatological research. (Abstract by A. B. Smithers)
