Phylogeographic Insights into a Peripheral Refugium: The Importance of Cumulative Effect of Glaciation on the Genetic Structure of Two Endemic Plants. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Quaternary glaciations and mostly last glacial maximum have shaped the contemporary distribution of many species in the Alps. However, in the Maritime and Ligurian Alps a more complex picture is suggested by the presence of many Tertiary paleoendemisms ...

The Ice Core Gas Age‐Ice Age Difference as a Proxy for Surface Temperature

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
Ice cores provide detailed records of past climate change. Water stable isotopes are the most commonly used ice core climate proxy, but their quantitative interpretation remains challenging.

Two ocean states during the Last Glacial Maximum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Abstract. The last deglaciation is the best constrained global scale climate change documented by climate archives. Nevertheless, the understanding of the underlying dynamics is still limited, especially with respect to abrupt climate shifts and associated changes in the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC).

Simulating soil organic carbon in yedoma deposits during the Last Glacial Maximum in a land surface model

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
Substantial quantities of organic carbon (OC) are stored in the thick, ice‐rich, and organic‐rich sediments called yedoma deposits, distributed in eastern Siberia and Alaska today.

Clumped‐Isotope Constraint on Upper‐Tropospheric Cooling During the Last Glacial Maximum

open access: yesAGU Advances, 2022
Ice cores and other paleotemperature proxies, together with general circulation models, have provided information on past surface temperatures and the atmosphere's composition in different climates.

Tropical glacier reconstructions during the Last Glacial Maximum in Costa Rica

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2021
Numerous high elevation tropical mountains around the world show evidence of past glacial activity during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). Cerro Chirripó in Costa Rica exhibits paleoglacial landforms such as glacial cirques, moraine deposits and polished

A flint artefact (Accession No. DONMG 2016.7.1) from Lindholme, South Yorkshire

open access: yesJournal of Lithic Studies, 2016
One of the last papers which Alan was working on when he died was a short note on a flint artefact from the surface of a gravel scrape at Lindholme in South Yorkshire.

Glacial geomorphology of Newfoundland, Canada

open access: yesJournal of Maps
We present a synthesis of glacial geomorphology comprising Newfoundland and the surrounding continental shelf. During the last glaciation, this region was encompassed by the Newfoundland Ice Cap that coalesced with the Laurentide Ice Sheet and extended ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Characteristics of Clay Minerals in Sediments of Xinghua Bay and Nanri Channel in Fujian Province and Their Paleoenvironmental Significance

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Under the background of global climate change, the evolution of climate in the future is the focus of geoscience. The Nanri Channel is an important passage connecting the Xinghua Bay and the Taiwan Strait, in China, and the study of its provenance and ...
