Decoupling glacier retreat and surface stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (Slovenia), insights from in situ cosmogenic 36Cl exposure and depth‐profile ages

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glaciokarst landscapes pose distinctive challenges for cosmogenic dating because meltwater and runoff can be rapidly rerouted into ponors and conduit networks, weakening glacier–river coupling and promoting local sediment storage. We reconstruct glacier retreat and postglacial stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (SW Slovenia) using in situ ...

Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

Boreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

Lodge moraines: a common yet underreported end‐moraine type—a review

Boreas, EarlyView.
Lodge moraines are a distinct genetic type of end moraine formed by submarginal accretion of subglacial till; they are some of the largest end moraines in the world. Although underreported in the literature, they are of equal importance to push, dump and hummocky end moraines. End moraines are formed at glacier ice margins and show the extent of former

Early deglaciation history of the southeastern Baffin Island shelf (Eastern Canadian Arctic Archipelago)

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 686-701, July 2026.
ABSTRACT During the last glacial period, the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) was the largest terrestrial ice sheet on Earth. Its evolution since the Last Glacial Maximum profoundly influenced Earth's geodynamics and surface processes. Investigating the past dynamics of the LIS provides critical insights into how contemporary ice sheets may respond to ...

Retrogressive Thaw Slump Morphology and Dynamics in Saline Permafrost in Northeast Greenland

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Saline permafrost occupies a significant portion of permafrost in the Northern Hemisphere and extends several kilometers inland from the present Arctic coastline. However, its thermal conditions, mechanical degradation and geomorphological impacts are poorly understood.

Dynamic Deglacial Evolution of Interior Seaways and Ice Streams in the Weddell Sea Embayment

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Improving our understanding of Antarctic glacial dynamics is essential for accurately predicting ice sheet behavior and its contribution to global sea level rise under future climate scenarios. The Weddell Sea Embayment, which channels ice from East Antarctica, West Antarctica, and the Antarctic Peninsula into the Filchner‐Ronne Ice Shelf, is ...

Before the winter came: The Early Pleistocene pre-glacial history of the Baltics illuminated by facies analysis and cosmogenic nuclide dating of borehole cores from Lithuania (NE Europe)Mendeley Data

Quaternary Science Advances
Understanding the evolution of past ice sheets is essential for comprehending Earth's climate and improving its prediction. However, information about the oldest Quaternary continental glaciations is scarce due to preservation limitations and ...

Revised classification of glaciofluvial landforms in the Finnish sector of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet

Boreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 702-716, July 2026.
Effective and sustainable land use, conservation, and the use of geological resources (incl. raw materials, aggregates and groundwater) require a clear classification system of sedimentary units, with well‐defined vocabulary and unified mapping practices.

Weichselian history of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet centre, Kvarken archipelago, western Finland—flow shifts, thermal regime and deglaciation

Boreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 670-701, July 2026.
Rapid thaw of the Earth's cryosphere in response to anthropogenic warming highlights the need to identify and understand the contrasting signatures of past ice‐sheet stability and collapse. The Kvarken archipelago, western Finland, at the centre of the former Fennoscandian Ice Sheet (FIS), has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in recognition
