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.

Atmospheric methane variability through the Last Glacial Maximum and deglaciation mainly controlled by tropical sources [PDF]
, 2023 Constraining the causes of past atmospheric methane variability is important for understanding links between methane and climate. Abrupt methane changes during the last deglaciation have been intensely studied for this purpose, but the relative ...

Retreat of the Cordillera Darwin icefield during Termination I
Cuadernos 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 ...

Reconstruction of deglacial sea surface temperatures in the tropical Pacific from selective analysis of a fossil coral [PDF]
, 2005 The Sr/Ca of coral skeletons demonstrates potential as an indicator of sea surface temperatures (SSTs). However, the glacial-interglacial SST ranges predicted from Sr/Ca of fossil corals are usually higher than from other marine proxies.

Vegetation Succession Patterns at Sperry Glacier’s Foreland, Glacier National Park, MT, USA
LandPlant colonization patterns on deglaciated terrain give insight into the factors influencing alpine ecosystem development. Our objectives were to use a chronosequence, extending from the Little Ice Age (~1850) terminal moraine to the present glacier ...

Glacial chronology of the Sierra Nevada, California, from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Holocene
Cuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2017 During the Last Glacial Maximum the Sierra Nevada in California, USA, supported a mountain glacier/ice cap complex that covered over 20,000 km2. The history of this ice cover can be reconstructed using 14C and cosmogenic-nuclide surface-exposure dating ...

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