Fluctuations of the Vestfonna ice margin at Brageneset, Nordaustlandet, Svalbard, after the last glacial maximum [PDF]
Four radiocarbon datings of shells of Mya truncata and Saxicava arctica from the till of the end-moraine of the advance of Vestfonna against Brageneset, Nordaustlandet, between AD 1861 and 1899, gave ages between 8300 BP and 8700 BP.

Future carbon neutral or low carbon economies will inevitably restore past climate regulating parameters. The physics of past climates appears to be an ongoing research subject. Past surface temperature variations were induced by changes in the size of green matter and amplified by the ocean. Future climates may be managed by photosynthesis.
