- Within the project "Late Quaternary development of the north-western Baltic Proper" a total of 36 piston core samples have been collected. The results presented in this study are based on analyses of 7 cores with emphasis on the late glacial part of the sequence. The varved glacial clay sequences have been analyzed for calcareous micro-fossils and mineral magnetic properties as well as measurements of clay-varves. The results from these analyses indicate that there is a close correlation between the occurrence of brackish water ostracods and foraminifera and a distinct change in the mineral magnetic parameters. The lithological composition of the clay-varves also differs in this sequence. The duration of this marine phase of the Yoldia Sea stage is 60 to 120 clay-varve years. It is concluded that correlations between the cores can be made using fossil assemblages and mineral magnetic parameters. It has not yet been possible, however, to make any reliable clay-varve connections.
