Ice Forecasting in the Next-Generation Great Lakes Operational Forecast System (GLOFS)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2018
Ice Cover in the Great Lakes has significant impacts on regional weather, economy, lake ecology, and human safety. However, forecast guidance for the lakes is largely focused on the ice-free season and associated state variables (currents, water ...

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

open access: yesBoreas, 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

Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

Making SDGs work for climate change hotspots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The impacts of climate change on people's livelihoods have been widely documented. It is expected that climate and environmental change will hamper poverty reduction, or even exacerbate poverty in some or all of its dimensions. Changes in the biophysical

Seasonal variations in proglacial lake area revealed by high spatial resolution planetscope satellite imagery

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 2, February 2026.
High‐resolution PlanetScope imagery reveals seasonal variations in proglacial lake area are underestimated by ~7% in moderate‐resolution data, while use of a single summer image can underestimate annual maximum area by ~2%. Capturing these seasonal variations provides valuable insights into the factors driving lake dynamics at Fjallsárlón, Iceland ...

Changes in Imja Tsho in the Mount Everest Region of Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Imja Tsho, located in the Sagarmatha ( Everest) National Park of Nepal, is one of the most studied and rapidly growing lakes in the Himalayan range. Compared with previous studies, the results of our sonar bathymetric survey conducted in September of ...

Long‐Term Snow Avalanche Trends in High Mountain Asia: Climatic Drivers and Impacts

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Devastating snow avalanches are frequent in High Mountain Asia (HMA) yet remain undocumented with climate change impact drivers poorly understood. Here we introduce the first record of 60 million avalanche deposits across 10,701 small catchments, compiled from 33 years of Landsat data from 1990 until 2022 using a snow index.

Environmental Controls on the Cycling of Fe and Mn in Patagonian Fjord Systems

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Fjord sediments are important reservoirs and conduits of potentially bioavailable iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn). Both elements are critical to life, serving as key reactants in metabolic pathways, and play an important role in the reactivity and burial of organic carbon.
