Eurasian Ice Sheet
The Eurasian Ice Sheet was an ice sheet that covered approximately 5.5 million square kilometres at multiple times during the Quaternary glacial epochs. At its maximum extent, the ice sheet held ~20 m of sea level equivalent of water. The ice sheet was comprised of a series of smaller ice sheets; the British-Irish Ice Sheet, the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet, and the Barents Sea Ice Sheet, respectively running west to east. The last advance of these three ice sheets coalesced 26,000 to 19,000 years before the present.
