Resumo

The table provides a correlation of chronostratigraphical subdivisions of late Cenozoic geological time, spanning the last 2.7 million years. The formal division of the Quaternary is the responsibility of the International Commission on Stratigraphy's (ICS) Subcommission on Quaternary Stratigraphy (SQS), in partnership with the International Union for Quaternary Research's (INQUA) Commission on Stratigraphy and Chronology (SACCOM). This is the third published version of the chart. Earlier versions are Gibbard et al., 2004, 2005. See http://www.quaternary.stratigraphy.org.uk/correlation/ for history.
