Former dynamic behaviour of a cold-based valley glacier on Svalbard revealed by basal ice and structural glaciology investigations [PDF]

, 2015
Large numbers of small valley glaciers on Svalbard were thicker and more extensive during the Little Ice Age (LIA), demonstrated by prominent ice-cored moraines up to several kilometres beyond present-day margins.

Particle saltation trajectories in supercritical open channel flows: Roughness effect

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 47, Issue 15, Page 3588-3610, December 2022., 2022
This study investigates single particle trajectories in supercritical open channel flows under different hydraulic and roughness conditions. Therefore, it helps to get a better understanding on the mechanics and prediction of bedrock incision and hydro‐abrasion occurring in steep bedrock rivers and hydraulic structures.

Geoarchaeological characterisation of a Younger Dryas site in the Alpine uplands: Cornafessa rock shelter (Italy)

Geoarchaeology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 35-56, January/February 2023., 2023
Abstract The effects of the Younger Dryas (YD) fluctuation on Late Pleistocene hunter‐gatherers' settlement and subsistence systems in the southern Alps are poorly known. This is primarily due to the scarcity of archaeological sites dating from the YD, in contrast with the extensive evidence available from the lateglacial interstadial and the early ...

Comparing different machine‐learning techniques to date Nile Delta sediments based on portable X‐ray fluorescence data

Geoarchaeology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 57-75, January/February 2023., 2023
Abstract Geomorphology generally aims to describe and investigate the processes that lead to the formation of landscapes, while geochronology is needed to detect their timing and duration. Due to restrictions on exporting geological samples from Egypt, modern geoscientific studies in the Nile Delta lack the possibility of dating the investigated ...

Coherent changes in wood charcoals, site occupation and lithic technology across the MIS 4/3 transition at Klein Kliphuis rock shelter, South Africa

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 38-48, January 2023., 2023
Abstract We explore the correspondence between changing palaeoenvironments, patterns of site use, and lithic technology at the rock shelter site Klein Kliphuis (South Africa) across the interval 65–55 000 years before present. This period coincides with the termination of Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 4, and the disappearance of an iconic late Pleistocene

Multi‐proxy reconstruction of the Holocene vegetation and land use dynamics in the Julian Alps, north‐west Slovenia

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 107-122, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Small mountain lakes are natural archives for understanding long‐term natural and anthropogenic impact on the environment. This study focused on long‐term (last ca. 13 000 years) vegetation changes and sedimentary processes in the catchment area of Lake Planina pri jezeru (1430 m a.s.l.) by using mineralogical, geochemical and palynological ...

Book review: K. Hutter, 2020. Fundamental Glaciology: modelling thermomechanical processes of ice in the geophysical environment, engineering and material science. International Glaciological Society

Journal of Glaciology, 2021
Kolumban Hutter ’ s new text ‘ Fundamental glaciology ’ departs from established norms in glacier science; sets a new standard for glacier mechanics; and deftly collects flow and fracture under one roof.

PyTrx: A Python-Based Monoscopic Terrestrial Photogrammetry Toolset for Glaciology

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Terrestrial time-lapse photogrammetry is a rapidly growing method for deriving measurements from glacial environments because it provides high spatio-temporal resolution records of change.
