student Richard Becker samples rock near Lago Buenos Aires, Argentina. Samples
of quartz-bearing rock from boulders deposited thousands of years ago by ice

Caption: Map at left shows ice extant for the last ice age (dark areas) in both
the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Map at right shows the area near Lago
Buenos Aires, east of the Andes Mountains, where moraines, glacial features
of the last ice age, have been dated by a UW-Madison team to show that ice
ages occur simultaneously in both hemispheres, despite differences in solar
radiation.
