The role of megatides and relative sea level in controlling the deglaciation of the British–Irish and Fennoscandian ice sheets

open access: yes, 2018
Key external forcing factors have been proposed to explain the collapse of ice sheets, including atmospheric and ocean temperatures, subglacial topography, relative sea level and tidal amplitudes.

Holocene Glacial–Paraglacial–Periglacial Transitions of a Sub‐Arctic Glacial Cirque, Fremri‐Grasárdalur, Northern Iceland

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 78-106, January/March 2026.
ABSTRACT The aim of this work is to study a variety of glacial, periglacial and paraglacial features found in a small cirque, Fremri‐Grasárdalur, in Tröllaskagi (Northern Iceland). We implement a multidisciplinary approach combining high‐resolution geomorphological mapping, horizontal/vertical boulder displacement (from 1994 to 2019) and surface ...

Glacial-interglacial sedimentation control on gas seepage exemplified by Vestnesa Ridge off NW Svalbard margin

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Vestnesa Ridge is built-up of thick contourites mainly deposited during the last ∼5 million years. Methane leaks from deep gas reservoirs creating pockmarks on its crest, and which have been the focus of numerous studies.

Environmental Controls on the Cycling of Fe and Mn in Patagonian Fjord Systems

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Fjord sediments are important reservoirs and conduits of potentially bioavailable iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn). Both elements are critical to life, serving as key reactants in metabolic pathways, and play an important role in the reactivity and burial of organic carbon.

The marine sedimentary environments of Kongsfjorden, Svalbard: an archive of polar environmental change

open access: yesPolar Research, 2019
Kongsfjorden, a fjord in north-western Svalbard, is characterized by large environmental gradients driven by meltwater processes along the margins of tidewater glaciers and the inflow of relatively warm Atlantic Water, the main heat source for the ...

Shifts in Fossil Benthic Foraminiferal Community Trajectories During the Last Deglaciation Along the European Margin

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Constraining how faunal communities vary over time and space in response to environmental change has long been a major goal of paleoecologists. Among fossilized organisms, few yield a better and greater detailed record than foraminifera to understand past marine conditions.

Late Pleistocene to early Holocene environmental changes on Store Koldewey, coastal north-east Greenland

open access: yesPolar Research, 2016
A lake sediment sequence from southern Store Koldewey, north-east Greenland, has been investigated using a multidisciplinary approach, including geophysical, geochemical, biogeochemical, biological and sedimentological methods.

New Insolation Forcing for Paleoclimate Studies

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Insolation forcing at the top of the atmosphere is widely used in paleoceanographic and paleoclimatological studies. In paleoclimate simulations, it must reflect Earth’s orbital history. General Circulation Models (GCMs) typically use a modern orbital configuration to allow direct comparison to modern and near‐future scenarios, often with time
