Late Pleistocene glaciation and retreat of ice sheet on the shelf of the South Orkney Plateau, West Antarctica

Лëд и снег, 2021
The research aims to provide insight into reconstruction of the Late Pleistocene glaciations and ice retreat that followed the Last Glacial Maximum. The study is based on multi-channel seismic profiling and multibeam survey conducted on the shelf during ...

The cross-sectional characteristics of glacial valleys and their spatial variability [PDF]

, 2014
Glacial valleys are fundamental large-scale geomorphological landscape features that dissect mountain ranges. Their cross-sectional shape is recognised as distinct from fluvial valleys.

Mountains as Evolutionary Arenas: Patterns, Emerging Approaches, Paradigm Shifts, and Their Implications for Plant Phylogeographic Research in the Tibeto-Himalayan Region

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Recently, the “mountain-geobiodiversity hypothesis” (MGH) was proposed as a key concept for explaining the high levels of biodiversity found in mountain systems of the Tibeto-Himalayan region (THR), which comprises the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau, the ...

Northern Hemisphere Glaciation during the Globally Warm Early Late Pliocene [PDF]

, 2013
The early Late Pliocene (3.6 to ∼3.0 million years ago) is the last extended interval in Earth's history when atmospheric CO₂ concentrations were comparable to today's and global climate was warmer.

Changes and representativeness of mountain glaciation parameters

Лëд и снег, 2020
The study was aimed at analysis of changes in the area Fgl, the number Ngl and statistical parameters of distribution for different aggregates of glaciers over two periods: 1946–1975 and 1976–2005.
