Neotectonics and inferred movements in Canada [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1988
Neotectonic movements in Canada are due to a variety of causes. Within the Canadian Shield (craton) postglacial rebound appears to be the main contributor.

Relating in situ hydraulic conductivity, particle size and relative density of superficial deposits in a heterogeneous catchment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Estimating the permeability of superficial deposits is fundamental to many aspects of catchment science, but can be problematic where insufficient in situ measurements are available from pumping tests in piezometers.

Climatic Conditions in the Central Part of the Kashmir Valley During the Pleistocene–Holocene Transition: Insights from Lithostratigraphy, Geochemical Analyses, and Radiocarbon Chronology of Palaeosol Sequences

open access: yesAtmosphere
The Kashmir Valley, characterized by its rich loess–palaeosol sequences (LPSs), provides a unique geo-archive for reconstructing Late Quaternary climate dynamics.

Fallacy of paleoproductivity signals by the recycled biogenic components: case study in the Central Basin of the northwestern Ross Sea

open access: yesGeoscience Letters
Core LC42, retrieved from the Central Basin of the northwestern Ross Sea, contains three distinct sediment facies (IRD (ice-rafted debris)-poor bioturbated sandy mud, IRD-rich massive sandy mud, and laminated mud) that are interleaved with each other and

An Assessment of Geophysical Survey Techniques for Characterising the Subsurface Around Glacier Margins, and Recommendations for Future Applications

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Geophysical surveys provide an efficient and non-invasive means of studying subsurface conditions in numerous sedimentary settings. In this study, we explore the application of three geophysical methods to a proglacial environment, namely ground ...

Streamlined islands and the English Channel megaflood hypothesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Recognising ice-age catastrophic megafloods is important because they had significant impact on large-scale drainage evolution and patterns of water and sediment movement to the oceans, and likely induced very rapid, short-term effects on climate. It has

DC‐magnetometry Analytical Tool Driven by Spin Ordering Phenomena for Sensing Chemical Interactions at the Surface of Nanomaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The adsorption of AsV on akaganeite nanorods was found to provide a magnetic signature. A change in the surface spin order gave rise to a second peak in the zero‐field cooled curve. AsIII adsorption does not provide any change in the magnetic behavior of the sorbent.

The beginnings of geography teaching and research in the University of Glasgow: the impact of J.W. Gregory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
J.W. Gregory arrived in Glasgow from Melbourne in 1904 to take up the post of foundation Professor of Geology in the University of Glasgow. Soon after his arrival in Glasgow he began to push for the setting up of teaching in Geography in Glasgow, which ...
