Synchronous Advance of the Alpine Glaciation Across the Northern and Southern Tibetan Plateau During the Mid‐Pleistocene Transition

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract Chronological studies of glacial sediments from the Shishapangma and Yarlung Tsangpo River valley indicate that Quaternary glaciation on the southern Tibetan Plateau commenced at ∼0.75–0.83 Ma. However, the oldest glacial deposits in the northern plateau are dated to only ∼0.46 Ma, markedly later than the Middle Pleistocene glacial ...

Global Cooling Driving the Increase in Erosion Rates Across the Himalaya Since the Quaternary

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Late Cenozoic global cooling is well documented, yet its impact on erosion rates in active mountain belts, particularly after the onset of Quaternary glaciation, remain contentious. This ambiguity partially stems from the potential methodological biases in erosion rate quantification, particularly in the Himalaya, where recent studies report ...

Main methods and site selection principles of paleo-earthquake research on bedrock fault surfaces

open access: yes地震科学进展, 2022
With the breakthrough of a series of techniques such as measurement of fault morphology, dating of cosmogenic nuclides, measurement of geochemical elements and the optically stimulated luminescence, the dominant characteristics of bedrock faults in paleo-

Fifty Years of Shore Platform Erosion Monitoring at Kaikōura Peninsula, South Island, Aotearoa‐New Zealand

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 7, July 2026.
Fifty years of micro‐erosion metre monitoring at Kaikōura show that the 2016 earthquake more than doubled shore platform erosion rates, transforming intertidal shore platforms into rapidly degrading supratidal marine terraces and reorganising the process and lithological controls that govern rock coast evolution.

Early deglaciation history of the southeastern Baffin Island shelf (Eastern Canadian Arctic Archipelago)

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 686-701, July 2026.
ABSTRACT During the last glacial period, the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) was the largest terrestrial ice sheet on Earth. Its evolution since the Last Glacial Maximum profoundly influenced Earth's geodynamics and surface processes. Investigating the past dynamics of the LIS provides critical insights into how contemporary ice sheets may respond to ...

Deglaciation of the Burren glacio‐karst, western Ireland, during Termination 1: Implications for North Atlantic climate and karstification

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 702-715, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The Burren uplands in western Ireland form one of the most extensive and best‐preserved examples of glacio‐karst in Europe. Subsumed by the Irish ice sheet during the Late Pleistocene, granite erratic boulders and in situ silica veins in the limestone bedrock provide a rare opportunity to reconstruct the timing and rate of deglaciation ...

Proglacial lake records of Holocene glacier behaviour and catchment processes in Slettedalen, Northeast Greenland

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 784-802, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Constraining Arctic catchment response to Holocene climate change is vital for understanding future environments. We present detailed sedimentological, geochemical and grain size end‐member analysis of two Holocene (~7.0 ka to present) lake sequences, S1 and S2, close to Zackenberg, Northeast Greenland.

The Age and Origin of Block Deposits in the Victorian Alps, Australia

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 391-415, July/September 2026.
ABSTRACT Large periglacial block deposits are found in the mountains of southeastern Australia. Despite their widespread distribution, their mode of formation and age are poorly understood. These landforms hold considerable potential to shed light on the nature of cooling during glacial periods. In this paper we present a new study of block deposits in
