Nature, 1874 BOTH Mr. Belt and Mr. Bonney, have, I think, missed the one point on which the question under discussion turns. The shell-bearing drift-gravels are well stratified. I can speak to those in the neighbourhood of Macclesfield, which run up to 1,100 ft. above the sea, being also very delicately, current-laminated. I am puzzled to imagine how this structure

Coğrafi Bilimler Dergisi, 2023 Studies with climate model data, which is one of the methods used to understand the climatic conditions of the past, are increasing, while the studies of balancing and validating which of these studies better demonstrate the reality remain more limited ...

Nature, 1873 PROF. TYNDALL has several times called attention to a point in regard to the height of the snow-line, which seems to be steadily overlooked by those who speculate on the causes of the great prevalence of snow during the glacial epoch. It is of course well known that the height of the snow-line at any place is determined mainly by two things, viz., the ...

Progress in palynology of the Gelasian–Calabrian Stages in Europe: Ten messages [PDF]
, 2007 Europe has at present the most extensive network of palynological sites covering the Late Pliocene and the Early Pleistocene or roughly the Gelasian-Calabrian Stages. This paper covers ten points of recent progress in the palynology of this time period:

Astronomical forcing shaped the timing of early Pleistocene glacial cycles
Communications Earth & Environment, 2023 Glacial cycles during the early Pleistocene are characterised by a dominant 41,000-year periodicity and amplitudes smaller than those of glacial cycles with ~100,000-year periodicity during the late Pleistocene. However, it remains unclear how the 41,000-

Vegetation context and climatic limits of the Early Pleistocene hominin dispersal in Europe [PDF]
, 2010 The vegetation and the climatic context in which the first hominins entered and dispersed in Europe during the Early Pleistocene are reconstructed, using literature review and a new climatic simulation. Both in situ fauna and in situ pollen at the twelve

The glacial geomorphology of sub-Antarctic Marion Island
Journal of Maps, 2021 Since the discovery of glacial features on sub-Antarctic Marion Island, the character and extent of a historic glacial period have remained an important research focus for earth science investigations.

Post-Little Ice Age glacial lake evolution in Svalbard: inventory of lake changes and lake types
Journal of Glaciology, 2023 The rapid formation of glacial lakes is one of the most conspicuous landscape changes caused by atmospheric warming in glacierised regions. However, relatively little is known about the history and current state of glacial lakes in the High Arctic.

Evaluating the variability of glacial lakes in the Kyrgyz and Teskey ranges, Tien Shan
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The northern Tien Shan Mountains are one of the most hazardous areas in Kyrgyzstan due to frequent glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs). The current status of glacial lakes in this region has not been reported in recent years.

Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London, 1879 Summary The general result of sections III., IV., V. is that Indian glaciers are near about as large as they have been since the deposition of the crumpled Tertiary beds which are called “Nahuns” and “Shivaliks.” “The glacial period” is dated “Postpliocene.” The Indian ground traversed extends from Ceylon to Kangra, near lat.
