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
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

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 ...

Glacial forefields areas are dynamic landscapes, and due to the glacier frontal position changes, they are sensitive to climatic fluctuations. The results of the analysis of aerial photos, satellite imagery, archival maps, and terrestrial laser scanning ...

Geomorphology of the Aran Valley (Upper Garonne Basin, Central Pyrenees)
Geomorphological mapping in mountain regions is key for a better understanding of past and present environmental dynamics. Here, we present a 1:25000 scale geomorphological map covering 553 km2 of the Aran Valley, Upper Garonne Basin (Central Pyrenees ...

The Italian Mountains: glacial landforms during deglaciation (18.9–14.6 ka)
In the mountains of peninsular Italy, a nonlinear deglaciation followed the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), and phases of glacial readvances/standstill occurred.

Timing of the deglaciation and the late-glacial vegetation development on the Pandivere Upland, North Estonia [PDF]
In this study, the deglaciation chronology of the Pandivere Upland is defined, and the late-glacial vegetation trends of north-eastern Estonia are summarised.

Reef response to sea-level and environmental changes during the last deglaciation: Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 310, Tahiti Sea Level [PDF]
The last deglaciation is characterized by a rapid sea-level rise and coeval abrupt environmental changes. The Barbados coral reef record suggests that this period has been punctuated by two brief intervals of accelerated melting (meltwater pulses, MWP ...

Glacial‐Isostatic Adjustment Models Using Geodynamically Constrained 3D Earth Structures
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.

Two additions to the moss flora of the South Shetland Islands in the maritime Antarctic
Tortella fragilis (Drumm.) Limpr. (Pottiaceae) and Bryum nivale Müll. Hal. (Bryaceae) are recorded for the first time from the South Shetland Islands in the northern maritime Antarctic. They were discovered in the Admiralty Bay area on King George Island,
