Heinrich events show two-stage climate response in transient glacial simulations [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2019
Heinrich events are among the dominant modes of glacial climate variability. During these events, massive iceberg armadas were released by the Laurentide Ice Sheet and sailed across the Atlantic where they melted and released freshwater, as well as ...

Stratigraphic evidence for modern‐like glacier extents in south‐central Alaska within the last glacial period (MIS 3)

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The last (Wisconsinan) glacial period was punctuated in North America by two glacial maxima, known as the Early and Late Wisconsinan glaciations. In Alaska, these maxima and their subsequent retreats have been the object of dating efforts to reconstruct local climatic events and compare them to global trends.

Age Relationships of Laurentide and Montane Glaciations, Mackenzie Mountains, Northwest Territories [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The Mackenzie Mountains were glaciated repeatedly by large valley glaciers that emanated from the Backbone Ranges, and by much smaller valley glaciers that emanated from peaks in the Canyon Ranges.

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

open access: yesBoreas, 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 ...

Simulation of the Greenland Ice Sheet over two glacial–interglacial cycles: investigating a sub-ice-shelf melt parameterization and relative sea level forcing in an ice-sheet–ice-shelf model [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2018
Observational evidence, including offshore moraines and sediment cores, confirm that at the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) expanded to a significantly larger spatial extent than seen at present, grounding into Baffin Bay and

A 110,000‐year history of change in continental biogenic emissions and related atmospheric circulation inferred from the Greenland Ice Sheet Project Ice Core [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The 110,000‐year record of ammonium concentrations from the Greenland Ice Sheet Project 2 (GISP2) ice core provides the basis for an analysis of terrestrial biological production and atmospheric circulation patterns involved in the transport of ...

Interhemispheric coupling, the West Antarctic Ice Sheet and warm Antarctic interglacials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Ice core evidence indicates that even though atmospheric CO2 concentrations did not exceed 300 ppm at any point during the last 800 000 years, East Antarctica was at least 3–4 C warmer than preindustrial (CO2 280 ppm) in each of the last four ...

Glacial Erosion by the Laurentide Ice Sheet

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1978
AbstractThe aim of the paper is to analyse landscapes of glacial erosion associated with the Laurentide ice sheet at its maximum and to relate them lo the three main variables affecting glacial erosion, namely former basal thermal regime of the ice sheet, the topography of the bed, and the geology of the bed.

Thorncliffe Formation: A proglacial to subglacial lacustrine basin sequence, Greater Toronto Region, Canada

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Map of Lower sediment (LS) thickness is a surrogate for the distribution of Thorncliffe Formation (TF) and ~75% of TF thickness from the slope of Niagara Escarpment east to Brighton. Inset images show the LS sequence at the Don Valleys brickyards (DVBY) and undeformed TF sand and gravel (~15 m) below Newmarket Till (NT) at sites L and Co.

Population genomic signatures of founding events in autonomously self‐fertilizing plants: a test with Impatiens capensis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 616-628, April 2026.
Summary Autonomously self‐fertilizing plants possess disproportionate abilities to found populations. Viewed from the metapopulation perspective, founding events should be frequent in such plants, but the intensity and timing of bottlenecks and recovery should vary among populations.
