A tephrostratigraphic investigation of the continuously varved Holocene Boreal lake Nautajärvi, Finland, provides precise age estimate for Lairg A/Hekla 5 eruption

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Numerous cryptotephra layers originating from Icelandic volcanoes and further afield have reached Northern Europe during the Holocene. Refining the precise timing and the relative frequency of local and distal eruptions requires well‐resolved continuous sediment archives. Lake Nautajärvi is located in central‐southern Finland (61°48′ N, 24°41′

Potential climatic transitions with profound impact on Europe [PDF]

, 2011
We discuss potential transitions of six climatic subsystems with large-scale impact on Europe, sometimes denoted as tipping elements. These are the ice sheets on Greenland and West Antarctica, the Atlantic thermohaline circulation, Arctic sea ice, Alpine

Lateglacial and Holocene mountain glacier fluctuations near Cape Farewell South Greenland inferred from 10Be moraine dating

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report 43 new 10Be exposure ages and six 26Al/10Be measurements from replicates from a small piedmont mountain glacier located at Cape Farewell (south Greenland) and temperature anomalies estimated from equilibrium‐line altitude (ELA) changes derived from 3D glacier reconstruction carried out using the ‘GlaRe’ toolbox.

Q Fever in Greenland

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2010
We report a patient with Q fever endocarditis in a settlement in eastern Greenland (Isortoq, Ammassalik area). Likely animal sources include sled dogs and seals. Q fever may be underdiagnosed in Arctic areas but may also represent an emerging infection.

Chemical proxies of glacier‐derived and marine organic matter reveal low mixing in summer‐stratified Arctic fjords

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract The rapid deglaciation of the Arctic increases the flux of terrestrial organic matter into the marine carbon cycle. The proportions, mixing, and turnover rates of organic matter from deglaciated terrestrial and glacial watershed sources are poorly understood in Arctic fjords.
