  abstract = {{B}e-10 exposure age chronology of the last glaciation was established in a key area at the southern slopes of the {H}igh {T}atra {M}ts., {W}estern {C}arpathians. {I}n-situ produced {B}e-10 in moraine boulders, glacially transformed bedrock surfaces and rockfall accumulations constrains the timing of the {L}ast {G}lacial {M}aximum ({LGM}) glacier expansion and provides chronological evidence for the post-{LGM} decay of one of the largest paleoglaciers in the range. {T}he uncertainty-weighted mean age of 22.0 +/- 0.8 ka obtained for the terminal moraine in the forefield of the {V}elka {S}tudend dolina {V}alley indicates that the oldest moraine was deposited close to the global {LGM}. {T}his finding confirms that well-preserved moraines in the range were formed during the last glacial cycle and that glaciation on the southern flank of the range was more extensive than earlier in the last glacial cycle. {T}he maximum glacier extent correlates with late {W}urmian/{W}eichselian glacier phases in the {A}lps, the {B}avarian/{B}ohemian {F}orest and the {K}rkonose {M}ts., but probably postdates the period of maximum glaciation in the {S}outhern {C}arpathians. {R}e-advance moraines at the mouth of the {V}elka {S}tudend dolina {V}alley and in the middle part of the {M}ala {S}tudena dolina {V}alley were deposited no later than around 20.5 ka and 15.5 ka, respectively. {T}he timing of these advances is broadly synchronous within the {H}igh {T}atra {M}ts. as well as with glacier advances in the {A}lps, {B}avarian/{B}ohemian {F}orest and {K}rkonose {M}ts. {B}e-10 exposure ages obtained from glacially transformed bedrock surfaces range between 20.5 +/- 1.7 ka and 10.7 +/- 0.3 ka constraining the onset and the final phase of the deglaciation. {S}urface exposure dating of four rockfall accumulations produced uncertainty-weighted mean ages of 20.2 +/- 1.2 ka, 17.0 +/- 0.7 ka, 16.5 +/- 0.4 ka and 15.6 +/- 0.7 ka. {T}hese ages indicate that activation of rock-slope failures occurred under paraglacial conditions within a few centuries up to 1400 years after the formation of re-advance moraines.},
