Marine Isotope Stage 11
Marine isotope stage between 424,000 and 374,000 years ago / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marine Isotope Stage 11 or MIS 11 is a Marine Isotope Stage in the geologic temperature record, covering the interglacial period between 424,000 and 374,000 years ago.[1] It corresponds to the Hoxnian Stage in Britain.

Interglacial periods which occurred during the Pleistocene are investigated to better understand present and future climate. Thus, the present interglacial, the Holocene, is compared with MIS 11 or Marine Isotope Stage 5.
