There is a new and interesting paper about the Younger
Dryas Impact Hypothesis. It is:

van Hoesel, A., W. Z. Hoek, G. M. Pennock, and M. R. Drury, 
2014, The Younger Dryas impact hypothesis: a critical review. 
Quaternary Science Reviews. vol. 83, pp. 95–114.

http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/02773791/83/supp/C

This paperconcludes that convincing evidence for this hypothesis 
remains debatable and that some of the evidence used to support 
the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis either cannot fully be 
explained or is contradictory. This paper also concludes that 
there is an apparent age discrepancy of up to two centuries 
between different sites associated with the proposed impact 
event and offers alternative interpretations of it.

Yours,

Paul H.
