Ocean (De)oxygenation Across the Last Deglaciation: Insights for the Future [PDF]
Oceanography, 2014 Anthropogenic warming is expected to drive oxygen out of the ocean as the water temperature rises and the rate of exchange between subsurface waters and the atmosphere slows due to enhanced upper ocean density stratification.

Deglaciation rate on southern and western Spitsbergen in the conditions of Arctic amplification [PDF]
Polish Polar Research, 2018 This paper reports on a morphometric analysis of land-terminating glaciers on southern and western Spitsbergen in the years 1936–2014. An attempt was made to estimate the deglaciation rate and the scale of its acceleration in the 21st century in the ...

, 2020 . Rapid monsoon changes since the last deglaciation remain poorly constrained due to the scarcity of geological archives. Here we present a high-resolution scanning X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis of a 13.5 m terrace succession on the western Chinese ...

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 153-168., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Geomorphology and Late Pleistocene–Holocene Sedimentary Processes of the Eastern Gulf of Finland
Geosciences, 2018 In 2017, a detailed study of the Eastern Gulf of Finland (the Baltic Sea) seafloor was performed to identify and map submerged glacial and postglacial geomorphologic features and collect data pertinent to the understanding of sedimentation in postglacial

Glacial‐Isostatic Adjustment Models Using Geodynamically Constrained 3D Earth Structures
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 Glacial‐isostatic adjustment (GIA) is the key process controlling relative sea‐level (RSL) and paleo‐topography. The viscoelastic response of the solid Earth is controlled by its viscosity structure.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Potential benthic habitats of early Mars lakes, probably oligotrophic, could range from hydrothermal to cold sediments. Dynamic processes in the water column (such as turbidity or UV penetration) as well as in the benthic bed (temperature gradients ...

East Asian summer monsoon precipitation variability since the last deglaciation
Scientific Reports, 2015 The lack of a precisely-dated, unequivocal climate proxy from northern China, where precipitation variability is traditionally considered as an East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) indicator, impedes our understanding of the behaviour and dynamics of the ...

Specialized meltwater biodiversity persists despite widespread deglaciation
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020 Significance Glaciers are retreating rapidly due to climate change, and these changes are predicted to reduce biodiversity in mountain ecosystems through the loss of specialized meltwater species.

Deglaciation and proglacial lakes [PDF]
Geology Today, 2015 Glaciers and ice sheets are important constituents of the Earth's land surface. Current worldwide retreat of glaciers has implications for the environment and for civilisation. There are a range of geomorphic changes occurring in cold environments and it is anticipated that these will be accentuated as a consequence of climate change.
