Bayesian chronological analyses consistent with synchronous age of 12,835–12,735 Cal B.P. for Younger Dryas boundary on four continents

James P. Kennett, Douglas J. Kennett, Brendan J. Culleton et al., 2015. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 112(32).

Bayesian modelling of 354 dates from 23 sections in 12 countries gives a boundary age of 12,835–12,735 cal BP (95%), which the authors say is consistent with synchronous deposition within about 100 years.
