Upper-Jurassic geschiebe-corals (Thamnasteria concinna) from a gravel-/sandpit at Freden/Leine are described. They are slightly bored by bivalves (Gastrochaenolites) and worms (Trypanites). Some oysters (Nanogyra Inana) encrusted the surface. The corals growed as massiv head-like (bulbous) colonies with "multicolumnar growth form" and ragged outlines. Similar shaped colonies are reported from Easteuropean Upper Jurassic (Pommerania), but are never reported for NW-Germany. Beds in which the coral-geschiebe were found - Drenthe stage in age - contain a high content of local geschiebe-material. The low degree of abrasion of the coral-geschiebe indicates short glacial transportation. It is possible, that the geschiebe originate from the Heersumer Schichten from Selter to Thüster Berg.

An outline of the Pleistocene history of the southern Lüneburg Heide is given based on the interpretation of exposed sections and indicator-stone analysis. Locally, Elsterian sediments crop out at the surface, mainly near the Holsteinian kieselgur (diatomite), thus indicating the existence of a pre-Saalian relief. Most of the Pleistocene deposits were formed during the three Saali- an ice advances. The ground moraine (basal till) of the first advance (the main Drenthe moraine) and its outwash sands are only locally exposed and only at the margin of the Aller valley do they form a relatively extensive plain. To the north, they are overlain by outwash sands of the late Drenthe advance. Also the Uelzen end moraine consists mainly of these outwash sands. The Uelzen moraine was overridden by the same ice advance. The Warthe ice sheet left only minor traces ridge; its advance came to a final stop at the already dumped morainic material.

Im Grubenfeld "Konrad" der Salzgitter-Erzbergbau AG bei Salzgitter-Bleckenstedt wurde ein 62 m mächtiges, von den Ornaten-Schichten (Mittel-Callovium, coronaten-Zone) bis an die Basis des Mittleren Korallenoolith (Mittel-Oxfordium, plicatilis-Zone oder Ober-Oxfordium, cautisnigrae-Zone) reichendes Profil aufgenommen und untersucht. Die Mächtigkeit der Heersumer Schichten beträgt nur 1,5 m, die des Unteren Korallenoolith ca. 60 m. Im Gegensatz zum nördlichen Teil des Gifhorner Troges (SEITZ 1950) ist die Mächtigkeit der Heersumer Schichten im südlichen Teil also erheblich geringer. Der Untere Korallenoolith ist in beiden Vorkommen etwa gleichmächtig entwickelt. Die Schichtlücke zwischen Mittel-Callovium und Unter-Oxfor- dium, die im untersuchten Profil nachgewiesen werden konnte, tritt auch am nördlichen Harzrand in der Grube "Hansa" (DENG- LER 1954) und im Wiehengebirge (LANGE 1971) auf. Offensichtlich ist sie jedoch nur lokal entwickelt, denn im Hildesheimer Jurazug (VINKEN 1974, 1975), im nördlichen Teil des Gifhorner Troges (SEITZ 1950) und am nördlichen Harzrand in unmittelbarer Nähe der Grube "Hansa" (s.o.) liegen lückenlose Profile vor. Daß diese Schichtlücken auch im Südteil des Gifhorner Troges auftreten, spricht für ein späteres Einsetzen der Trogtendenz in diesem Gebiet. Die untersuchten Schichten stimmen in ihren wesentlichen faziellen und petrographischen Merkmalen mit benachbarten Vorkommen überein. Die Zyklen im Unteren Korallenoolith werden als Ergebnis sich ablösender Transgressions- und Regressionsphasen gedeutet.

In the first paragraphs of this paper a survey of the most ap- proved paleowind indicators is given. Methods, limitations and Problems of their Interpretation are discussed. The following indicators and their attributes are considered: loess, sandy loess (attributes: Sediment thickness, grain size, mineral compo- sition, sediment structure and morphology), paleosoils, vulcano- eolian Sediments, deep sea Sediments and paleo snowlines. In the second part of this paper the wind regimes predominating in Europe during the Weichselian glacial maximum are recon- structed based on information from more than 170 publications with interpretations of paleowind indicators. The results are presented in two survey maps. The most significant result is to indicate two competing wind regimes existing during the glacial maximum. In the immediate vicinity of the Fennoscandian glaciation and in eastern Europe paleowind indicators document easterly and north easterly anti- cyclonic winds; in central and Western Europe they show westerly winds originated in cyclones coming from the North Atlantic. Some modifications of the wind pattern are induced by local and regional morphological conditions (e.g. the Upper Rhine valley, the east rim of the Carpathian Mountains). In general and compared with previous investigations the study points to a more differentiated pattern of atmospheric circula- tion during the Weichselian Pleniglacial influenced by variing topographical, paleoecological and meteorological factors.
