We provide evidence that in the interior of the Eastern Alps aeolian processes intensified significantly during the Younger Dryas and early Holocene cooling events. Hitherto the associated sedimentary deposits have been systematically overlooked and are often difficult to date. A robust luminescence and radiocarbon chronology (the former established in our lab) provides the numerical backbone of the study. The paper, published in Quaternary Science Reviews, is now online and is a collaboration among numerous colleagues from the University Innsbruck.
