On the choice of ingredients for a theory of the Ice Ages

Walter Baltensperger, Willy Woelfli

"With five parameters one can fit an elephant". This provocative statement expresses the fact that when a theory has several adjustable parameters, an agreement with empirical data…

Traditions connected with the pole shift model of the Pleistocene

Willy Woelfli, Walter Baltensperger

As is well known, during the Last Glacial Maximum, about 20'000 years ago, the ice was asymmetrically distributed around the present North Pole. It reached the region of New York,…

Interpretation of the small grains in the inclusions of ice cores

W. Baltensperger, W. Woelfli

The origin of the grains with diameters less than 4 micron from the inclusions in Antarctic ice cores is discussed. It is proposed that these grains were initiated by ions stopped…

On the change of latitude of Arctic East Siberia at the end of the Pleistocene

W. Woelfli, W. Baltensperger

Mammoths lived in Arctic East Siberia. In this region there is not sufficient sunlight over the year for the growth of the plants on which these animals feed. Therefore the latitud…

Arctic East Siberia had a lower latitude in the Pleistocene

W. Woelfli, W. Baltensperger

In Arctic East Siberia many remains of mammoths have been found. In this region there is not sufficient sunlight over the year to allow for the growth of the plants on which these…

A link between an ice age era and a rapid polar shift

W. Woelfli, W. Baltensperger

The striking asymmetry of the ice cover during the Last Global Maximum suggests that the North Pole was in Greenland and then rapidly shifted to its present position in the Arctic…
