Funding

TS wishes to thank Christoph Spotl and Oliver Heiri for several fruitful discussions since the EU-COST funded INTIMATE meetings at Bludenz 2013 and Obergurgl 2013. Thanks to Roland Zech for help in the field and numerous stimulating discussions and to Heinz Veit for several thoughtful remarks. Grain size and color measurements were carried out in the context to the CRC 806 "Our way to Europe", subproject B1 and D1. We thank the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation), grant number INST 216/596-2, for funding this project (project number 57444011). We thank two anonymous reviewers for constructive feedback that helped improve our manuscript.
