Recession and Ice Surface Elevation Changes of Baranowski Glacier and Its Impact on Proglacial Relief (King George Island, West Antarctica)

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
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 ...

Simulated last deglaciation of the Barents Sea Ice Sheet primarily driven by oceanic conditions

open access: yesQuaternary Science Reviews, 2020
An interconnected complex of ice sheets, collectively referred to as the Eurasian ice sheets, covered north-westernmost Europe, Russia and the Barents Sea during the Last Glacial Maximum (around 21 ky BP), connecting to the Scandinavian Ice Sheet to ...

Rate of Melt Ascent Beneath Iceland From the Magmatic Response to Deglaciation [PDF]

open access: yesGeochemistry Geophysics Geosystems, 2019
Observations of the time lag between the last deglaciation and a surge in volcanic activity in Iceland constrain the average melt ascent velocity to be ≥50 m/year. Although existing theoretical work has explained why the surge in eruption rates increased

Two additions to the moss flora of the South Shetland Islands in the maritime Antarctic

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2018
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,

Eskers and bedrock gorges (tunnel valleys) in the Pakasaivo area, western Finnish Lapland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2003
Studies of the deglaciation of the last Scandinavian Ice Sheet, including the behavior of the ice sheet and meltwater activity, were conducted in the vicinity of the Pakasaivo canyon lake, located in western Finnish Lapland.

The North American hydrologic cycle through the last deglaciation

open access: yesQuaternary Science Reviews, 2019
While the climate evolution of North America during the last deglaciation has received considerable attention, few detailed model–data comparisons of the deglacial hydroclimate have been conducted at the continental scale. Here we use a transient climate

Plant succession on glacial moraines in the Arctic Brooks Range along a >125,000-year glacial chronosequence/toposequence

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2023
Widespread glacial retreat is now occurring in many arctic mountain ranges, yet little is known about primary succession following deglaciation in these settings.

Deep-water circulation changes lead North Atlantic climate during deglaciation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Constraining the response time of the climate system to changes in North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) formation is fundamental to improving climate and Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation predictability.

Retreat of the Cordillera Darwin icefield during Termination I

open access: yesCuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2017
During the last glaciation, the Cordillera Darwin icefield expanded northward toward the Straits of Magellan, eastward across Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego and through Canal Beagle, and south and west across the numerous islands of southernmost Chile ...

Geomorphology of the Aran Valley (Upper Garonne Basin, Central Pyrenees)

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2022
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 ...
