Weichselian stratigraphy, geomorphology and glacial dynamics in southern Finnish Lapland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2005
Quaternary stratigraphy and geomorphology were investigated by using aerial photo interpretation, digital elevation models and stratigraphical studies in southern Finnish Lapland.

Patterns of Late Glacial vegetation in The Netherlands [PDF]

open access: yesEiszeitalter und Gegenwart, 1997
The Weichselian Late Glacial (ca. 13,000 - 10,000 years BP) marks the transition from the cold Weichsel Late Pleniglacial to the warmer Holocene. During this period the climate rapidly changed as did the vegetation and the abiotic landscape.

Late Glacial summer paleohydrology across Central Europe [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
It is generally accepted that a weakening of the North Atlantic thermohaline circulation caused the Younger Dryas cooling. Although the role of seasonality was emphasized previously, this aspect is rarely considered yet, and it remains elusive how this ...

Late Glacial–Holocene climatic transition record at the Argentinian Andean piedmont between 33 and 34° S [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2014
The Arroyo La Estacada (~ 33°28' S, 69°02' W), eastern Andean piedmont of Argentina, cuts through an extensive piedmont aggradational unit composed of a dominant Late Pleistocene–early Holocene (LP–EH) alluvial sequence that includes several paleosols ...

Late Quaternary glacier advances in the Andes of Santiago, central Chile, and paleoclimatic implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Andean mountain glaciers in central Chile are in a transitional zone between the seasonal influence of the mid-latitude westerlies and subtropical semiarid conditions to the north. Long-term glacial dynamics for these glaciers and their relationship with

Late-glacial to late-Holocene shifts in global precipitation δ18O [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2015
Reconstructions of Quaternary climate are often based on the isotopic content of paleo-precipitation preserved in proxy records. While many paleo-precipitation isotope records are available, few studies have synthesized these dispersed records to explore

New Perspectives on Glacial Geomorphology in Earth’s Deep Time Record

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The deep time (pre-Quaternary) glacial record is an important means to understand the growth, development, and recession of the global cryosphere on very long timescales (106–108 Myr).

Late Cryogenian and late Paleozoic ice ages on the São Francisco craton, east Brazil

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The miniature paleocontinent in the region of the São Francisco River valley, in eastern Brazil, holds the record of two different glacial epochs. The late Cryogenian Jequitaí Formation from the Bambuí Group is up to 100 m thick and covers areas mainly ...

Vedde Ash constrains Younger Dryas glacier re-advance and rapid glacio-isostatic rebound on Svalbard

open access: yesQuaternary Science Advances, 2022
The distal deposition of tephra from explosive volcanism has the potential to geochronologically constrain sedimentary archives and landforms.

Landscape-scale drivers of glacial ecosystem change in the montane forests of the eastern Andean flank, Ecuador [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Understanding the impact of landscape-scale disturbance events during the last glacial period is vital in accu- rately reconstructing the ecosystem dynamics of montane environments. Here, a sedimentary succession from the tropical montane cloud forest of
