Securing the past for the future – why climate proxy archives should be protected

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Glaciers, corals, speleothems, peatlands, trees and other natural proxy archives are essential for global climate change research, but their scarcity and fragility are not equally recognised. Here, we introduce a rapidly disappearing source of palaeoclimatic, environmental and archaeological evidence from some 5000 years ago in the Fenland of eastern ...

Palaeoenvironmental evolution of the Baltic Sea basin during the Last Interglacial (Eemian, Mikulino stages): a review

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
This review presents an investigation of the evolution of the Baltic Sea basin and its connections through the Eemian Stage, based upon sequences of marine and associated deposits from the White Sea to the Southwest Baltic, via the Karelian channel. Pollen analyses, foraminiferal and ostracod analyses provide the evolution of relative sea‐level change,

Unravelling the evolution of the Frébouge polygenetic cone in Val Ferret (Mont Blanc Massif)

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Proglacial settings in the Alps are typically polygenetic, often characterized by a complex and discontinuous interplay between glacial, fluvial and gravitational processes. These processes yield high volumes of sediments, which usually exceed their transportation capacity.

Stratigraphic evidence for modern‐like glacier extents in south‐central Alaska within the last glacial period (MIS 3)

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The last (Wisconsinan) glacial period was punctuated in North America by two glacial maxima, known as the Early and Late Wisconsinan glaciations. In Alaska, these maxima and their subsequent retreats have been the object of dating efforts to reconstruct local climatic events and compare them to global trends.

Fossil bears break free from inhibitory cascade constraints at least twice (Ursus minimus and Ursus deningeri) caused by dietary adaptations

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Bears deviate from the inhibitory cascade model (ICM) during molar size evolution, with two significant deviations linked to changes in diet: Ursus minimus and Ursus deningeri. Many bears exhibit a ‘partial ICM’, highlighting the relationship between relative molar size, dietary adaptations and dental development across different species.
