Moershoofd (Poperinge) A Middle Devensian interstadial from the Netherlands during which the climate was relatively cool, with average July temperatures of 6–7°C. This division, together with the Hengelo and Denekamp interstadials, is perhaps the equivalent of the Upton Warren Interstadial of the British Isles.
