δ18O of NGRIP profile from Greenland with numbered Greenland Interstadials (after Rasmussen et al., 2014). The stratigraphy of the last Pleistocene glacial stage in Poland is also marked (after Marks et al., 2015), Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) (after Lisiecki and Raymo, 2005) and average timing of interstadials refered to as Hengelo and Denekamp (different authors).
