WeThaw: Mineral Weathering in Thawing Permafrost

, 2019
Enhanced thawing of the permafrost in response to warming of the Earth’s high latitude regions exposes previously frozen soil organic carbon (SOC) to microbial decomposition, liberating carbon to the atmosphere and creating a dangerous positive feedback ...

New geochronological constraints on Late Pleistocene glaciation in the southern Cadí Massif, SE Pyrenees

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Cadí Massif (42°17′09″ N, 1°38′11″ E; 2649 m a.s.l.) in the southeastern Pyrenees preserves clear evidence of Late Pleistocene glaciation, although previous research has focused almost exclusively on its northern slope. By contrast, the southern slope has remained largely unexplored.

New Schmidt hammer exposure‐age dating calibrations for the Last Glacial Termination in NW Scotland: Development and application to undated Torridon Group sandstone surfaces in Wester Ross

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An understanding of the terrestrial extent, retreat dynamics and climate–glacier coupling of ice masses during the Last Glacial Termination (LGT, ~18–11 ka) is often limited by a fragmentary geomorphological record and is dependent on precise, accurate and robust dating frameworks.

Ngarrawa (mound spring) sediments as archives of Holocene environmental change in arid central Australia: Insights from Itrax XRF scanning

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Central Australia's ngarrawa, or ‘mound springs’, are unique hydrological systems that serve as some of the only near‐permanent sources of water and continuous sediment deposition in Australia's arid interior. As such, they hold significant potential as palaeo‐climate and ‐environmental archives in a region where many aspects of past climate ...

Relationship between mineral surface observations and bulk conductivity at a hydrocarbon contaminated site

, 2005
A recent geoelectrical model suggests that the higher bulk electrical conductivities observed at contaminated locations (relative to uncontaminated locations) at an aged hydrocarbon contaminated site result from enhanced mineral weathering increasing ...

Mercury cycling during the last glacial period in Arctic Lake El'gygytgyn, NE Russia

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tectonic processes play a key role in the global mercury (Hg) cycle on geological timescales, by mobilising Hg from deep Earth reservoirs to the surface. These natural fluxes also introduce a dynamic component to the terrestrial Hg cycle that can interact with other environmental signals and influence Hg delivery to sedimentary records.

The Legal Framework for Enhanced Rock Weathering in Minnesota

This paper focuses on one form of carbon dioxide removal, terrestrial enhanced rock weathering, which involves spreading finely ground alkaline rocks over land.

Carbon isotope geochemistry of organic matter in volcanic paleosols constrains paleo‐environmental variations

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Fiorano quarry paleosol developed within the Colli Albani volcanic district (Italy) in the time interval bracketed by the deposition of the Pozzolanelle pyroclastic‐flow unit (365 ± 4 ka) and the emplacement of the Capo di Bove lava flow (277 ± 2 ka).

Climate‐modulated accumulation and erosion of sediments in the Rodderberg crater basin for the last 439 ka (East Eifel Volcanic Field, Germany)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glacial/interglacial climate cycles since marine isotope stage (MIS) 12 influenced the discontinuous and 73 m‐long sediment record from the volcanic crater of Rodderberg in the East Eifel Volcanic Field, Germany. High‐resolution grain size and geochemical data have been valued by numerical dating techniques (radiocarbon and luminescence dating,

Comparative Raman Spectroscopic Analysis of Slavíkite From Its Type Locality and Other Occurrences

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Comparative Raman spectroscopy of slavíkite from three localities shows consistent spectral features across samples collected over several decades, reveals strong orientation‐dependent scattering effects, and provides insights into thermal stability, dehydration processes, and high‐temperature phase transformations.
