Thorncliffe Formation: A proglacial to subglacial lacustrine basin sequence, Greater Toronto Region, Canada

open access: yesBoreas
Thorncliffe Formation (southern Ontario, Canada) sedimentary architecture, extent, facies trends, contacts and composition, combined with hydraulic data, define fundamental glacial basin depositional environments. Thorncliffe Formation (TF) comprises an ~

The morphosedimentary record of glacial to postglacial environmental changes in West Wiyâshâkimî impact crater lake and adjacent areas, northern Québec, Canada

open access: yesBoreas
Crater lakes in core regions of former ice sheets have the potential to preserve long‐term sedimentary archives that are otherwise rare in glaciated landscapes due to pervasive glacial erosion. Lake Wiyâshâkimî, an impact crater lake located in the inner

Little Ice Age glacial geomorphology and sedimentology of Portage Glacier, South-Central Alaska [PDF]

open access: yesFinisterra - Revista Portuguesa de Geografia, 2009
The study of glacial landforms and deposits is important, as it isdifficult to observe processes under modern glaciers and ice-sheets. Thus landscapes and sediments that are the product of present glaciation can give insight into processes that occurred ...

Permafrost-derived dissolved organic matter composition varies across permafrost end-members in the western Canadian Arctic

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2021
Organic matter, upon dissolution into the aqueous state as dissolved organic matter (DOM), can undergo mineralization by microbes. There has been increasing effort to characterize DOM released from thawing permafrost because it may perpetuate a ...

Composition and origin of the Middle Weichselian interstadial deposit in Veskoniemi, northern Finland [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2010
The stratigraphy and sedimentology of a diamicton-stratified sand deposit have been studied in the Veskoniemi area, near Lake Inarijärvi in central Finnish Lapland. Test pit excavations were used for stratigraphical investigations.

Chronological aspects of the Hensbacka – a group of hunter-gatherers/fishers on the west coast of Sweden during the Pleistocene/Holocene transition

open access: yesDanish Journal of Archaeology, 2015
In this short article, we take a brief but concise look at chronological, and to a limited extent environmental and typological, aspects of the Hensbacka culture group in Bohuslän.

Lithostratigraphy of Late Weichselian tills on the West Estonian Islands [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1998
Glacial stratigraphy of the West Estonian Islands comprises three different diamicton units which are correlated event-stratigraphically to the Pandivere and Palivere ice advances of the most recent (Late Weichselian) glaciation and included into the ...

Glaciotectonically deformed glaciofluvial sediments with ruptured pebbles (the Koczery study site, E Poland) [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2018
Significant quantities of ruptured pebbles are found in glaciotectonically deformed glaciofluvial sediments of the Saalian glaciation (MIS 6) at the Koczery site (E Poland).

Stream Recovery Post Channelization: A Case Study of Low-Gradient Streams in Central Illinois, USA

open access: yesHydrology, 2022
Stream channelization, which entails reducing the sinuosity of a stream, widening, and in some cases deepening the stream channel, is a widespread practice in agricultural regions.

Microbial iron reduction and greenhouse gas production in response to organic matter amendment and temperature increase of periglacial sediments, Bolterdalen, Svalbard

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2022
Arctic permafrost soils store substantial reserves of organic matter (OM) from which microbial transformation contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions of CH4 and CO2.
