New Schmidt hammer exposure‐age dating calibrations for the Last Glacial Termination in NW Scotland: Development and application to undated Torridon Group sandstone surfaces in Wester Ross

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An understanding of the terrestrial extent, retreat dynamics and climate–glacier coupling of ice masses during the Last Glacial Termination (LGT, ~18–11 ka) is often limited by a fragmentary geomorphological record and is dependent on precise, accurate and robust dating frameworks.

The Lower Devonian Water Canyon formation of Northeastern Utah [PDF]

open access: yes, 1963
In 1948 Williams subdivided the Jefferson Formation of northeastern Utah into two formations. The upper formation was referred to as the Late Devonian Jefferson Formation and the lower formation the Early Devonian Water Canyon Formation (Williams, 1948 ...

Enhanced continental weathering and its marine environmental effects in the late Devonian: Constraints from strontium isotopes of carbonate rocks in South China

open access: yes地质科技通报, 2022
The Frasnian-Famennian extinction in the late Devonian was one of the largest mass extinction during Earth's history, which was believed to be caused by the plant landing-indued intensification of terrestrial chemical weathering and the consequent ...

Internal Structure, Kinematics, and Prehistory of Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A), Brooks Range, Alaska

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A)—one of hundreds of FDLs in the Brooks Range of northern Alaska—is a slow‐moving landslide in permafrost that has been the subject of research since 2008 due to its close proximity to the Dalton Highway. Here, we synthesize more than a decade's worth of climate and surface measurements of monitored FDLs, and the ...

Depositional processes of varved sediments from proglacial Lago Frías since 1800 CE (North Patagonian Andes, Argentina)

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The glacierized Valle Frías in Northern Patagonia is one of the best‐studied valleys in South America and includes varved sediments from Lago Frías. We complement this lacustrine record with a high‐resolution documentation of varve counts and their composition.

Appraisal of Six Natural Mica Reference Materials for In Situ Rb‐Sr Geochronology

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points Evaluated six natural mica reference materials for in situ LA‐ICP‐MS/MS Rb‐Sr geochronology using geochemical, microstructural and isotopic characterisation. Identified robust primary reference materials: Mount Dromedary biotite (99.37 Ma) and Mica‐Fe biotite (307.75 Ma). La Posta biotite and Högsbo muscovite are suitable secondary reference

High-resolution isotope stratigraphy of the Lower Devonian.

open access: yes, 1996
A new data set of 53 $\sp‡$Sr/$\sp†$Sr ratios for the Lower Devonian has been collected from well preserved, and stratigraphically well constrained, brachiopod shells from the Leon region in Spain, western Urals in Russia, Podolia in ...

Declining habitat directive butterflies within a major stronghold: Challenges for conservation Rückläufige Tagfalter der FFH‐Richtlinie in einer bedeutenden Hochburg: Herausforderungen für den Naturschutz

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Myrmecophilous Phengaris nausithous and P. teleius are highly specialized grassland butterflies and flagship species for European nature conservation, but they exhibit ongoing population declines. We show strong declines for both species in the Westerwald mountain range, western Germany, since 1994, driven by inappropriate timing of mowing, grassland ...
