The Jurassic of North-East Greenland: A new Middle–Upper Jurassic succession on Hold with Hope, North-East Greenland [PDF]

Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2004
A succession of marine, Jurassic sediments was recently discovered on Hold with Hope, North-East Greenland. The discovery shows that the area was covered by the sea during Middle–Late Jurassic transgressive events and thus adds to the understanding of ...

Decoupling glacier retreat and surface stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (Slovenia), insights from in situ cosmogenic 36Cl exposure and depth‐profile ages

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glaciokarst landscapes pose distinctive challenges for cosmogenic dating because meltwater and runoff can be rapidly rerouted into ponors and conduit networks, weakening glacier–river coupling and promoting local sediment storage. We reconstruct glacier retreat and postglacial stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (SW Slovenia) using in situ ...

Middle to Late Jurassic pelagites and gravity mass flow deposits of a displaced Neotethyan margin: Microfacies and biostratigraphical studies in Northeast Hungary [PDF]

Geološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva
Microfacies, depositional age and sedimentary environment were characterised for two Jurassic successions, which were deposited on the Adriatic microcontinental margin of the Neotethys Ocean. Investigations were carried out mostly on cores drilled in the

Ostracod faunal and geochemical evidence for the impact of Hoxnian (MIS 11c) sea levels in eastern England

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine isotope substage 11c (~426–366 ka) is widely regarded as the most recent Pleistocene interglacial that is broadly analogous to the Holocene. The timing and magnitude of sea‐level changes during MIS 11 have been much debated, particularly concerning whether sea levels were significantly higher than during the Holocene. Empirical evidence

A Late Jurassic deep-bodied actinopterygian from Antarctica

Acta Palaeontologica Polonica
Mesozoic deep-bodied actinopterygians are of interest given, among others, the various modes of feeding exhibited by these fishes. Regrettably, most of their fossil record is restricted to a limited number of localities in Europe. During the Late Jurassic fragmentation of Pangaea, the exchange of fauna between the European Tethys and the paleo-Pacific (

Comparative Effectiveness of Different Mulch Types and Application Rates for Reducing Runoff and Sediment Yield on Forest Skid Trails

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rehabilitation of skid trails following timber harvesting is critical for preserving forest soil integrity, particularly within ecologically sensitive ecosystems such as the Hyrcanian forests of northern Iran, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Although mulching is widely recommended for erosion control, field evidence comparing different locally ...

Depositional and Hydrological Relationships Between Buried Dead Ice and the Active Layer in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica: A Study of Sediment Geochemistry and Cation Concentrations

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The McMurdo Dry Valleys, the largest ice‐free region in Antarctica, are home to a cold‐desert hydrologic system of glaciers, snowbanks, streams, and lakes. Freshwater is also stored as dead glacial ice, which is poorly constrained in terms of ion concentrations and interactions with both in situ and overlying sediments.

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

The Jurassic of Denmark and Greenland: Sequence stratigraphy of the Jurassic of the Danish Central Graben [PDF]

Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2003
A sequence stratigraphic framework is established for the Jurassic of the Danish Central Graben based primarily on petrophysical log data, core sedimentology and biostratigraphic data from about 50 wells.

Sustainability Assessment: The Role of Entropy‐Based Indicators for Reconnecting Human' Subjectivity and Civilization With Natural Tendency of Ecosystems

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability represents a complex issue in which scientific knowledge inevitably coexists with the subjective perception of humans in its turn influenced by civilization, cultural but also unconscious aspects. These results emerge with evidence from a critical analysis of the main definitions of sustainability delivered by credited entities (
