Abstract

The paper summarises geological and palaeobotanical investigation data on Pleistocene sediments of recent decades in Lithuania and Belarus. The main problems in Pleistocene stratigraphy and correlation of sections are discussed. As a result the chronostratigraphical correlation chart of Lithuania and Belarus is presented and some changes in local stratigraphic schemes proposed. The majority of the stratigraphical units is comparable and correlates well however some unsolved stratigraphical problems still exist. To solve these problems additional very detail investigations are needed by applying the new modern methods. The lack of the absolute dates of the Pleistocene sediments is the main problem in both countries.
