Clouds and Snowball Earth deglaciation [PDF]
Geophysical 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.

The last deglaciation of Alaska
Cuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2017 We review available chronologies that constrain the timing of glacier fluctuations during the last deglaciation in Alaska. We address three questions relating to the last glacial termination: (i) How did the timing of glacier recession relate to buildup ...

The deglacial forest conundrum
Nature 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).

Deglaciation of Fennoscandia [PDF]
Quaternary Science Reviews, 2016 To provide a new reconstruction of the deglaciation of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet, in the form of calendar-year time-slices, which are particularly useful for ice sheet modelling, we have compiled and synthesized published geomorphological data for eskers, ice-marginal formations, lineations, marginal meltwater channels, striae, ice-dammed lakes, and ...

Widespread erosion on high plateaus during recent glaciations in Scandinavia [PDF]
, 2018 Glaciers create some of Earth’s steepest topography; yet, many areas that were repeatedly overridden by ice sheets in the last few million years include extensive plateaus.

Tahiti sea level : the last deglacial sea level rise in the South Pacific [PDF]
, 2005 Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 310 to the reef terraces around Tahiti, French Polynesia, was the second expedition to utilize a mission-specific platform (MSP) and was conducted by the European Consortium for Ocean Research Drilling (

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Climatic warming following the Last Glacial Maximum caused the southern Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) to begin ∼2,000‐year cycles of retreat and readvance whose cause remains ambiguous.

Abrupt climate changes of the last deglaciation detected in a Western Mediterranean forest record [PDF]
, 2009 Abrupt changes in Western Mediterranean climate during the last deglaciation (20 to 6 cal ka BP) are detected in marine core MD95-2043 (Alboran Sea) through the investigation of high-resolution pollen data and pollen-based climate reconstructions by the ...

Cuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2017 Glacial retreat from the North Cascade Range after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) at approximately 21 ka until the end of the Pleistocene at 11.6 ka was complex and included both continental and alpine glaciers.

The northern sector of the last British ice sheet : maximum extent and demise [PDF]
, 2008 Strongly divided opinion has led to competing, apparently contradictory, views on the timing, extent, flow configuration and decay mechanism of the last British Ice Sheet.
