Rapidly receding Arctic Canada glaciers revealing landscapes continuously ice-covered for more than 40,000 years

Shrinking Arctic Canada ice caps are revealing preserved landscapes containing a record of past glacier activity. Here the authors show that 14C ages of plants and cosmogenic 14C concentrations from these landscapes indicate that recently exposed landscapes have been continuously ice covered for >...
