This study reveals how climate change alters the water cycle in the Three Rivers Source region by degrading its important ‘solid groundwater’ (seasonally frozen ground). We found that runoff response varies by watershed and the role of permafrost decreases sharply, making water supply more dependent on rainfall and becoming increasingly vulnerable ...

Insights From Two Decades of Seismicity at Columbia Glacier
We use Columbia Glacier as a case study to demonstrate how seismically cataloged calving events in Alaska can track glacier evolution over two decades. By combining this catalog—a serendipitous byproduct of earthquake monitoring—with terminus positions ...

Decoupling climate and human impacts on the nitrogen cycle during the Irish Bronze Age
ABSTRACT Disentangling climate variability and human activity in past nitrogen cycling is key to understanding ecosystems. Previous studies in Ireland observed a widespread, permanent shift in terrestrial nitrogen cycling during Later Prehistory, potentially linked to intensifying land‐use.

Galloping glaciers monitored from space
‘Galloping’ or surging glaciers, as well as nonsurging glaciers up to 40 miles in length around Mt. McKinley in south central Alaska, have been identified clearly in images returned from the first experimental Larth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS 1).The images, also revealing the extent of sediment plumes from coastal glaciers, offer considerable

Abstract The transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Late Glacial marked a shift from the cold conditions of Greenland Stadial‐2 (GS‐2) to the warmer phases of Greenland Interstadial‐1 (GI‐1), enabling the reoccupation of Alpine regions by Late Palaeolithic hunter‐gatherers.

ABSTRACT The Greek peninsula lies at the intersection of major atmospheric circulation systems, making it a key location for reconstructing past climate variability in the Eastern Mediterranean. In this study, we present a new high‐resolution multi‐proxy speleothem record from Hermes Cave, located on the shoulder of the Corinth Rift in southern Greece.

Iceland After Ice:Representation at the COP25 UN Climate Change Conference
In October 2019, the World Glacier Monitoring Service (WGMS) – a conglomeration of international scientists – sent a letter of concern to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) ahead of the COP25 summit in Madrid.The letter ...

ABSTRACT Constraining Arctic catchment response to Holocene climate change is vital for understanding future environments. We present detailed sedimentological, geochemical and grain size end‐member analysis of two Holocene (~7.0 ka to present) lake sequences, S1 and S2, close to Zackenberg, Northeast Greenland.
