Evidence for the former existence of a thicker ice sheet on the Vestfjella nunataks in western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica [PDF]
Vestfjella (73-74°S, 13-16°W) is a 130 km long nunatak range in western Dronning Maud Land in East Antarctica, and its northern and southern ends are situated close to the present ice sheet grounding-line.

ABSTRACT Carbon capture technologies are poised to become one of the primary focuses regarding the achievement of net‐zero emissions by the year 2050. In these technologies, particular attention is given to post‐combustion CO2 capture, which is more easily implemented at existing power stations and other industries.

Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

The glacial origins of relict ‘pingos’, Wales, UK
Ramparted depressions (doughnut-shaped debris-cored ridges with peat- and/or sediment-filled central basins) are commonly perceived to represent the relict collapsed forms of permafrost ground-ice mounds (i.e. pingos or lithalsas).

Abstract Neandertals are known to possess very distinctive traits in their bony labyrinth morphology, such as an inferiorly positioned posterior canal and a very low number of turns in the cochlea. Hence, the inner ear has been often used to assess the Neandertal status of fragmentary fossils.

A Survey of Climatic Changes of Namak Lake Basin in the Late Quaternary [PDF]
Two important characteristics, alternate climatic fluctuations and human being appearance, distinguish Quaternary from other geology periods. These climatic changes have shown increase and decrease of glacialical scope in high latitudes, but there are ...

We use a fully coupled hydro-thermal model (TH) to quantify changes in the pore pressure and temperature distribution following the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) in the intracontinental basins in Central and Northern Europe. We demonstrate that even without

An osteohistological analysis of Triceratops (Ornithischia: Ceratopsidae) cranial ornamentation
Abstract Ceratopsids are among the most distinctive and well known extinct Cretaceous vertebrates, yet many details regarding the growth and composition of their cranial features are still not fully anatomically described or understood. In particular, striking cranial adornments such as the postorbital horns and parietal‐squamosal frill of Triceratops ...

Subglacial geology plays a key role in determining the rate of ice flow and sensitivity of the glacial system to atmospheric or ocean warming. However, bedrock geology is often poorly known because direct information from subglacial samples is extremely ...
