A billion or more years of possible periglacial/glacial cycling in Protonilus Mensae, Mars [PDF]
Mars, Icarus 385, 115115 (2022), 2022 The long-term cyclicity and temporal succession of glacial-periglacial (or deglacial) periods or epochs are keynotes of Quaternary geology on Earth. Relatively recent work has begun to explore the histories of the mid- to higher-latitudinal terrain of Mars, especially in the northern hemisphere, for evidence of similar cyclicity and succession in the ...

Anatomy of a Dansgaard-Oeschger warming transition: High-resolution analysis of the North Greenland Ice Core Project ice core [PDF]
, 2008 Large and abrupt temperature oscillations during the last glacial period, known as Dansgaard‐Oeschger (DO) events, are clearly observed in the Greenland ice core record.

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.

Controls on Millennial‐Scale Atmospheric CO2 Variability During the Last Glacial Period
Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 Changes in atmospheric CO2 on millennial‐to‐centennial timescales are key components of past climate variability during the last glacial and deglacial periods (70–10 ka), yet the sources and mechanisms responsible for the CO2 fluctuations remain largely ...

Geology of Tindfjallajökull volcano, Iceland [PDF]
, 2018 The geology of Tindfjallajökull volcano, southern Iceland, is presented as a 1:50,000 scale map. Field mapping was carried out with a focus on indicators of past environments.

Understanding the mechanisms behind high glacial productivity in the southern Brazilian margin [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2019 This study explores the mechanisms behind the high glacial productivity in the southern Brazilian margin (SBM) during the last 70 kyr using planktonic foraminifera assemblage and subsurface temperature information derived using the modern analogue

Glacial cycles drive variations in the production of oceanic crust [PDF]
Science, Vol. 347, no. 6227, pp. 1237-1240, 2015, 2014 Glacial cycles redistribute water between oceans and continents causing pressure changes in the upper mantle, with consequences for melting of Earth's interior. Using Plio-Pleistocene sea-level variations as a forcing function, theoretical models of mid-ocean ridge dynamics that include melt transport predict temporal variations in crustal thickness of
