The Grounding of an Ice Shelf in the Central Arctic Ocean: A Modeling Experiment [PDF]
A numerical ice sheet model was used in a first test towards evaluating the hypothesis that, during a period of large-scale glaciation, an ice shelf emanating from the Barents/Kara Seas grounded across parts of the Lomonosov Ridge to a depth of around ...

Exploring dietary adaptations in Ursus minimus: a 3D geometric morphometric analysis of the mandible
Using 3D geometric morphometrics, the dietary adaptations of the extinct Auvergne bear (Ursus minimus) are analysed. Its mandibular morphology aligns more closely with omnivorous rather than insectivorous bears, challenging current ideas. The extinct bear Ursus minimus, which lived in Europe during the Pliocene and possibly Early Pleistocene, is ...

This study investigates the species composition and distribution of gallinaceous birds (Galliformes) in the south of eastern Europe, specifically within the territory of present‐day Ukraine, during the Late Pleistocene and Holocene. The research is based on the comprehensive revision of skeletal remains found at archaeological sites.

Securing the past for the future – why climate proxy archives should be protected
Glaciers, corals, speleothems, peatlands, trees and other natural proxy archives are essential for global climate change research, but their scarcity and fragility are not equally recognised. Here, we introduce a rapidly disappearing source of palaeoclimatic, environmental and archaeological evidence from some 5000 years ago in the Fenland of eastern ...

Changes in West Antarctic ice stream dynamics observed with ALOS PALSAR data
The Advanced Land Observation System (ALOS) Phased‐Array Synthetic‐Aperture Radar (PALSAR) is an L‐band frequency (1.27 GHz) radar capable of continental‐scale interferometric observations of ice sheet motion.

Abstract The deep interior of the East Antarctic Ice sheet likely contains important records of climate and ice sheet evolution. Here we report on a recent aerogeophysical survey of the southern flank of Dome A, over South Pole Basin. We find an extensive radioglaciologically defined basal unit under Dome A that abruptly truncates within South Pole ...
