Out in the cold? A review of Early Middle Palaeolithic settlements in northern Central Europe, age data and geological preconditions for site formation and preservation

Boreas, EarlyView.
The characteristics of settlement of Neanderthals in northern Central Europe during the earlier phases of the Middle Palaeolithic (Marine Isotope Stage 8–6) have been a matter of debate for decades, specifically regarding the population dynamics at such latitudes during the coldest phases. In this paper, we review the known archaeological record of the

Impact of the International Glaciological Society on the development of glaciology and its future role [PDF]

Journal of Glaciology, 1987
AbstractAfter the end of World War II glaciology entered a new golden age, which has yet to end. The quality of this golden age is comparable to the classic period of the nineteenth century. The International Glaciological Society has been the major catalyst, through its very active and co-operative international membership and its Journal of ...

Coastal evolution, environmental change and carbon storage in the Thung Prong Thong Mangrove, eastern Gulf of Thailand

Boreas, EarlyView.
Palaeoenvironmental records along the eastern coast of Thailand remain sparse, with only a few studies attempting to reconstruct past climatic and environmental conditions. However, additional palaeoenvironmental, palaeoclimatic and sea‐level records are needed to improve our understanding of coastal evolution and local environmental changes.

Morphology and distribution of lakes under the Laurentide Ice Sheet: implications for ice flow dynamics

Boreas, EarlyView.
This study examines the distribution and morphology of lakes under the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) to investigate relationships with ice flow velocity, bedrock and basal thermal regime. Palaeo‐ice streams and lobes were important components of the LIS, and properties of lakes in those regions are quantified at high resolution.

Bathymetry of Northwest Greenland Using “Ocean Melting Greenland” (OMG) High-Resolution Airborne Gravity and Other Data

Remote Sensing, 2019
Marine-terminating glaciers dominate the evolution of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) and its contribution to sea-level rise. Widespread glacier acceleration has been linked to the warming of ocean waters around the periphery of Greenland but a lack of ...

Beachrock formation influenced by co‐seismic deformation and relative sea‐level changes during the Holocene near the Gulf of Saros, Türkiye (NE Aegean Sea)

Boreas, EarlyView.
This is the first proof of beachrock found on the nearshore of the Gulf of Saros. Beachrock generation was influenced by tectonic activity, geomorphological processes, and sedimentation. The Late Holocene beachrock deposits were altered by co‐seismic deformation.

Impacts of Hydrostatic Pressure on Distributed Temperature-Sensing Optical Fibers for Extreme Ocean and Ice Environments

Photonics
Optical fiber is increasingly used for both communication and distributed sensing of temperature and strain in environmental studies. In this work, we demonstrate the viability of unreinforced fiber tethers (bare fiber) for Raman-based distributed ...
