Saale glaciation
The Saale glaciation or Saale Glaciation, sometimes referred to as the Saalian glaciation, Saale cold period ((ドイツ語:Saale-Kaltzeit)), Saale complex (''Saale-Komplex'') or Saale glacial stage (''Saale-Glazial'', colloquially also the ''Saale-Eiszeit'' or ''Saale-Zeit''), covers the middle of the three large glaciations in Northern Europe and the northern parts of Eastern, Central and Western Europe by the Scandinavian Inland Ice Sheet between the older Elster glaciation and the younger Weichselian glaciation.
== Age and definitions ==
It succeeded the Holstein interglacial and was followed by the Eemian interglacial. The Saale complex is currently estimated, depending on the source, as existing from around 300,000 to 130,000 years ago or 347,000 to 128,000 years ago (duration: around 219,000 years), roughly contemporaneous with the glaciation of the Riss Glacial in the Alpine region.〔 The actual "ice age" includes only part of the Saale glaciation or Saale complex. The first cold phase (Fuhne glacial) at the start of the Saale complexes is separated by a warmer period (Dömnitz interglacial) from the actual Saale "ice age". The term "Saale Ice Age" or "Saale Glacial" thus has 2 meanings in the literature; on the one hand it just refers to the phase in which the glacier advanced into North Germany; on the other hand it refers to the whole Saale complex. The terms are frequently interchanged in the literature.〔A good example of the interchangeability of the terms is the now rather older standard work, ''Das Quartär Deutschlands'', by Leopold Benda (ed.) Verlag Bornsträger Stuttgart dating to 1995. Here the Saale complex in the individual articles of this volume is variously described as the Saale cold period (''Saale-Kaltzeit''), Saale Glacial () (''Saale-Glazial''), Saale Complex (''Saale-Komplex'') and Saale Ice Age (''Saaleeiszeit''). It should also be noted that the term Saale Ice Age (''Saaleeiszeit'') is used by one of the authors, Lothar Eissmann, in the sense of Saale complex (i.e. including the Fuhne cold period and Dömnitz warm period), not particularly restricted to the actual glacial period.〕
The Saale corresponds temporally to the Wolstonian Stage in the British Isles and the Illinoian Stage in North America.
