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 ...

Early evidence of Acheulean settlement in northwestern Europe--la Noira site, a 700,000 year-old occupation in the center of France.

PLoS ONE, 2013
The human settlement of Europe during Pleistocene times was sporadic and several stages have been recognized, both from paleaoanthropological and archaeological records.

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

A terrestrial ice-contact fan at Seathwaite in Borrowdale: characteristics and significance. [PDF]

An exposure in hummocky moraine of Loch Lomond Stadial age (12.9-11.7 ka BP) at Seathwaite in Borrowdale displays sedimentological and structural evidence suggesting development as a terrestrial ice-contact fan.

Benthic Macroinvertebrate Recovery After Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrades: Implications for Biomonitoring

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 824-836, May 2026.
ABSTRACT During the past decade, major upgrades have been made to the Kitchener and Waterloo wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in the Grand River watershed in Ontario, Canada. As part of efforts to evaluate the effectiveness of these investments (>$450 M CDN), a benthic macroinvertebrate (BMI) monitoring program was initiated by sampling upstream and

De Geer moraine internal architecture based on sedimentological and geophysical investigations and implications for ice‐marginal reconstructions

Boreas
De Geer moraines (DGMs) may act as valuable ice margin indicators; however, to date, their variable mode of formation has presented challenges for this utility.

Insights into glacial processes from micromorphology of silt-sized sediment [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Silt-rich meltwater plume deposits (MPDs) analyzed from marine sediment cores have elucidated relationships that are clearly connected, yet difficult to constrain, between subglacial hydrology, ice-marginal landforms, and grounding-zone retreat patterns ...

Middle to Late Pleistocene landscape evolution and glacial dynamics in the Eastern Alps: the Gröbminger Mitterberg record, Austria

Boreas, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 517-541, April 2026.
Glacial erosion during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) has removed much evidence of earlier glaciations and interglacials in the European Alps. At Gröbminger Mitterberg (GM), beneath a blanket of LGM till, a distinctive sediment archive preserves deposits predating the LGM.

Scientific history, sampling approach, and physical characterization of the Camp Century subglacial material, a rare archive from beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Basal materials in ice cores hold information about paleoclimate conditions, glacial processes, and the timing of past ice-free intervals, all of which aid understanding of ice sheet stability and its contribution to sea level rise in a warming climate ...
