The role of shallow banks and marine ice domes in marine‐based ice‐sheet deglaciation
Marine‐based ice sheets are susceptible to collapse and faster retreat than their land‐terminating counterparts. One of the key factors contributing to the relative stability of marine‐terminating ice sheets is the presence of shallow bathymetric banks and islands acting as pinning points for the ice sheet.

A 3200‐year weathering record of the Mekong River basin by sediments from the South China Sea
The Mekong River is a mega‐river in East and Southeast Asia, and precipitation in its watershed influences more than 300 million people. However, the controlling factor in precipitation and weathering in the basin remains controversial. Here we present a high‐resolution record of weathering of the Mekong River basin over the past 3200 years by ...

Luminescence analysis of a postglacial landscape in northeastern Norway and northern Finland
Portable optically stimulated luminescence (pOSL) analysis allows rapid relative dating of sediments that potentially can be calibrated against known OSL ages to provide an age estimate for landforms across a large area. This study uses 186 pOSL measurements and 20 OSL ages to investigate the postglacial landscape evolution inside the Younger Dryas ...

Low‐relief dry channels appear out of place across a glaciated karst landscape in northern Ohio. Channels are only a few metres deep cut into limestone and draped with a veneer of till. Several hypotheses are proposed for explaining the channels. Low‐relief dry channels are observed across the Bellevue‐Castalia Karst Plain of north‐central Ohio, USA ...

Palaeoecological studies reporting long‐term development histories of subarctic fens—explicitly, orohemiarctic peatlands—are scarce, and overall, permafrost‐free peatlands located in the immediate vicinity of permafrost zones have received little attention in Fennoscandia. Here, we use a multiproxy approach to study the millennial‐scale dynamics of two
