Clouds and Snowball Earth deglaciation [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2012
Neoproterozoic, and possibly Paleoproterozoic, glaciations represent the most extreme climate events in post‐Hadean Earth, and may link closely with the evolution of the atmosphere and life.

Rapid northern hemisphere ice sheet melting during the penultimate deglaciation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The rate and consequences of future high latitude ice sheet retreat remain a major concern given ongoing anthropogenic warming. Here, new precisely dated stalagmite data from NW Iberia provide the first direct, high-resolution records of periods of rapid

The deglacial forest conundrum

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
<p><span>The forest expansion in the Northern Hemispheric extra-tropics during the deglaciation, i.e. the last some 22,000 years, starts earlier and occurs much faster in our model simulation using the MPI-ESM 1.2 than in the recently published synthesis of biome reconstructions by Cao et al. (2019).

Conceptual model for talus slope development in Brattegg Valley (SW Spitsbergen) based on sedimentology of debris deposits in periglacial zone [PDF]

open access: yesPolish Polar Research, 2023
The talus slopes occur in all climatic zones on the Earth. These forms are sensitive to climate fluctuations, therefore they may be indicators of changes in the environment and contain the record of the geomorphological events after the deglaciation ...

Does foraminiferal test size reflect changes in palaeoenvironmental conditions?—a case study from the southern Svalbard shelf

open access: yesPolar Research, 2020
Although the environmental factors influencing the growth rate and reproduction of benthic foraminifera are known, the relationship between foraminifera test size and environmental variables remains unclear, especially on geological timescales.

Glacial varves at the distal slope of Pandivere-Neva ice-recessional formations in western Estonia [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2012
The distribution and varve thickness data of Late Weichselian varved clay were analyzed to describe the proglacial sedimentary environment, ice recession and water-level changes in the Baltic Ice Lake at the distal position of Pandivere–Neva (13.5–13.1 ...

Timing of the Baltic Ice Lake in the eastern Baltic [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2013
A shoreline database for the Baltic, covering the Late Weichselian and Holocene, was compiled. The database includes about 1600 sites from Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Fin- land, NW Russia, Poland, Sweden and was used to create a GIS-based ...

On the deglaciation chronology of the Palivere ice-marginal zone, northern Estonia [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2012
This paper presents new bio-, litho- and chronostratigraphical evidence from two adjacent sediment sequences of the Tõdva and Saku basins, northern Estonia that refine the age estimate of the Palivere ice-marginal zone and the deglaciation history of ...

The Tuupovaara end moraine in North Karelia, Eastern Finland - an ice-marginal formation of the same age as the Salpausselkä ridges [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1983
Described in this report is a previously for the most part unknown ice-marginal formation in the province of North Karelia extending from the parish of Värtsilä via Tohmajärvi and Tuupovaara to the parish of Ilomantsi.

Influence of the 1988 earthquake on glacierization and relief of the Tsambagarav massif (Western Mongolia)

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2022
Early documentation of the consequences of the Tsambagarav earthquake happened on July 23, 1988 (M = 6.4) compiled by Soviet and Mongolian specialists allowed the authors, using the example of Tsambagarav (Mongolian Altai), to assess the impact of the ...
