Marine Isotope Stage 6

Target entity: Marine Isotope Stage 6
Context triple: [Saalian glaciation, correlatesWith, Marine Isotope Stage 6]

• A. Saalian glaciation
  The Saalian glaciation was a major Middle Pleistocene ice age in northern Europe, during which extensive ice sheets covered large parts of the continent.
• B. Last Glacial Maximum
  The Last Glacial Maximum was the most recent period in Earth’s history when ice sheets reached their greatest extent, dramatically lowering sea levels and reshaping global climates and ecosystems.
• C. Last Glacial Period
  The Last Glacial Period was the most recent major ice age, spanning roughly 115,000 to 11,700 years ago, during which large ice sheets covered vast areas of North America, Europe, and Asia and global climates were significantly colder and drier than today.
• D. Kaigas glaciation
  The Kaigas glaciation was an early Neoproterozoic ice age event in Earth's history, preceding the more extensive Sturtian glaciation and representing one of the planet's significant pre-Cryogenian glacial episodes.
• E. Marinoan glaciation
  The Marinoan glaciation was a major Neoproterozoic ice age, likely a global or near-global “Snowball Earth” event that occurred around 650–635 million years ago.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
