  abstract = {{U}-{T}h ages have been obtained by {TIMS} on the growth periods of a stalagmite from the "{G}rotte des {P}uits de {P}ierre-la-{T}reiche" (northeastern {F}rance), during the middle part of the "{W}eichselian glaciation" ({M}arine {I}sotope {S}tage 3), between 55.36 +/- 0.95 and 53.34 +/- 0.49 ka and around 45.85 +/- 0.49 ka. {T}hese episodes are contemporaneous with abrupt climatic variations recorded in {G}reenland ice cores ({G}reenland interstadials 12, 14 and 15) that have been previously recognized in {E}uropean speleothems. {T}hey also coincide with two interstadials, known as "{G}oulotte" and "{P}ile" in the {G}rande {P}ile pollen sequence (eastern {F}rance), which have been correlated with the {M}oershoofd complex in the {N}etherlands. {S}uch evidence of speleothem deposition related to temperate episodes gives a strong indication of the absence of continuous shallow permafrost during the middle part of {MIS} 3 in northeastern {F}rance.},
