First direct dating of Late Pleistocene ice-wedges by AMS [PDF]
We present the first direct dating by C-14-accelerator mass spectrometry of three Late Pleistocene syngenetic ice-wedges from the Seyaha cross-section.

Fossil Ice Wedges in Hampshire [PDF]
THREE large fossil ice wedges have been discovered in a coastal section exposed at Highcliffe in Hampshire (M.R. 215931). They are to be found within the Plateau Gravel in the uppermost part of the cliff at about 100′ O.D. Here 2.4 m of gravels rest on Barton Beds, at this point consisting of an impermeable glauconitic clay. On top of the gravels is an

Last glacial ice sheet dynamics offshore NE Greenland – a case study from Store Koldewey Trough [PDF]
The presence of a grounded Greenland Ice Sheet on the northeastern part of the Greenland continental shelf during the Last Glacial Maximum is supported by new swath bathymetry and high-resolution seismic data, supplemented with multi-proxy analyses of ...

Isotopic composition of oxygen and hydrogen of ice wedges in Central Yamal
New data on the distribution of the isotopes δ18О and δD of ice wedges in Central Yamal are presented. In the summer of 2019, the massive wedge ice was studied in the thermal circus of the third marine terrace.

Isotopic composition on ground ice in Western Yamal (Marre-Sale)
The profile of Quaternary sediments near Marre-Salle polar station, Western Yamal Peninsula, has large bodies of tabular ground ice. This profile is considered strata-typical and critical in understanding of paleogeographic conditions of the Arctic in ...

Microtopographic control on the ground thermal regime in ice wedge polygons [PDF]
The goal of this research is to constrain the influence of ice wedge polygon microtopography on near-surface ground temperatures. Ice wedge polygon microtopography is prone to rapid deformation in a changing climate, and cracking in the ice wedge ...

Ice-wedge stable isotopes at the Dmitry Laptev Strait (Northeast Siberian Arctic) – indications for Late Quaternary stratigraphy and paleoclimate [PDF]
Ice wedges are the most abundant type of ground ice in the ice-rich permafrost deposits of the Northeast Siberian Arctic. They are formed by the periodic repetition of frost cracking and subsequent crack filling and refreezing in spring, mostly by melt ...
