Processes acting to produce glacial detritus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1969
The traditional view of attrition and abrasion as the major agents producing glacial debris is considered in the light of recent work by engineering geologists and geomorphologists.

Hot and cold deserts as eco‐evolutionary arenas for understanding plant resistance to multiple abiotic stressors

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During their long evolutionary history, land plants have evolved a range of adaptations to different abiotic stressors. These help explain present‐day diversity and distribution patterns, as well as the potential resilience of natural and agricultural systems to a changing climate. Most previous research has focused on adaptation to individual

Scottish late-glacial moraines: debris supply, genesis and significance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A variety of moraine forms were deposited by glaciers during the Loch Lomond Stadial. Study of such moraines and related landforms provides a valuable source of data on patterns of landscape evolution and climatic change. This thesis presents detailed

Glacial Geomorphology of southern Alberta, Canada [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
During deglaciation from the Last Glacial Maximum three terrestrial ice streams within the south western sector of the Laurentide Ice Sheet competed and coalesced in southern Alberta; the High Plains Ice Stream (HPIS), Central Alberta Ice Stream (CAIS ...

Satellite and Reanalysis Dataset Dependence of ETCCDI Extreme Precipitation Trends in Paraná, Southern Brazil

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Extreme precipitation trends detected in Paraná, Southern Brazil (1983–2024), are strongly conditioned by the dataset used, with reanalyses indicating coherent inland drying and longer dry spells, observations retaining stronger mesoscale heterogeneity, and satellite products often showing declines in short‐duration extremes. Monthly diagnostics reveal

Application data base paleogeographic Kola peninsula «Q-KOLA» in paleolimnological research

open access: yesTransactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2015
The paleogeographic database “Q-KOLA” was created to systematize, statistically analyze and visualize information about the history of the natural ecosystems of the Kola Peninsula in the Late Glacial and Holocene. The database can be used in limnological

Retrospective Modeling of a Large Paleo-Landslide Related to Deglaciation in the Sierra de Urbión, Cordillera Ibérica, Spain

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Through a study of glacial geomorphology and retrospective modeling of the stability of the slopes, it has been possible to reconstruct and know the mechanism of the formation of a large landslide induced by the retreat of the glacier corresponding to ...

A New Hydroclimatic Signature: Negative NAO Dominance Under Weak La Niña Conditions During the 2025–2026 Northwest Africa Floods

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Conceptual hydroclimatic pathway linking the concurrent negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) phase and weak La Niña conditions to extreme February rainfall and flash flooding in Northwest Africa. ABSTRACT The winter of 2025–2026 in Morocco exhibited a rapid hydroclimatic transition from prolonged drought to widespread flooding, representing an ...

The traces of the last pleistocene glacial maximum in the eastern Kamnik-Savinja Alps

open access: yesDela, 2017
The area of the eastern Kamnik-Savinja Alps was glaciated in the time of the Last Pleistocene Glacial Maximum (LGM). The glacial landforms mentioned by the previous researchers and other landforms in the area were examined, gemorphologically mapped ...

Reconstruction of pre-Illinoian ice margins and glaciotectonic structures from airborne ElectroMagnetic (AEM) surveys at the western limit of Laurentide glaciation, Midcontinent U.S.A.

open access: yesQuaternary Science Advances, 2021
Early and early Middle Pleistocene glaciations in midcontinental USA are poorly understood relative to more recent Illinoian and Wisconsinan glaciations, largely because pre-Illinoian glacial landforms and deposits are eroded and buried.
