Flow‐pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet indicated by the subglacial lineation record over Norway, Sweden and Finland

Boreas, EarlyView.
We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract This study introduces BloomTree, an interactive Sunburst system for visualizing massive hierarchical datasets, such as the Tree of Life. Traditional static color schemes fail to maintain perceptual distinguishability when applied to millions of nodes, and managing the full tree in memory is computationally costly.
