Liquidambar styraciflua 'Moraine': 'Moraine' Sweetgum

open access: yesEDIS, 2014
This cultivar of Sweetgum grows in a narrow pyramid to a height of 60 feet when young and may eventually spread to 40 feet as it grows older. It is the most cold hardy cultivar known today. The beautifully glossy, star-shaped leaves turn bright red, purple, yellow or orange in the fall (USDA hardiness zones 5 and 7) and early winter (USDA hardiness ...

Explicit solutions for a probabilistic moraine preservation model

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2016
If a series of glacial advances occurs over the same pathway, the moraines that are now present may constitute an incomplete record of the total history.

A machine learning approach to the geomorphometric detection of ribbed moraines in Norway [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
Machine learning is a powerful yet underutilised tool in geomorphology, commonly used for image-based pattern recognition. Analysing new high-resolution (1–10 m) elevation datasets, we investigate its usefulness for detecting discrete geomorphological ...

Contrasts between the cryoconite and ice-marginal bacterial communities of Svalbard glaciers [PDF]

open access: yesPolar Research, 2013
Cryoconite holes are foci of unusually high microbial diversity and activity on glacier surfaces worldwide, comprising melt-holes formed by the darkening of ice by biogenic granular debris.

Middle to late Holocene chronology of the western margin of the Greenland Ice Sheet: A comparison with Holocene temperature and precipitation records

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2018
The response of the Greenland Ice Sheet to future climate change is relatively unconstrained. Determining the extents and rates of ice-margin fluctuations during the Holocene provides a longer-term perspective on ice-sheet changes and offers an analogue ...

Glacial geomorphology of the central sector of the Cordilleran Ice Sheet, Northern British Columbia, Canada

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2021
Northern British Columbia was repeatedly covered by the Cordilleran Ice Sheet (CIS) during the glacial periods. However, its mountainous terrain and remote location have thus far impeded our understanding of the central sector of the ice sheet.

Coastal glaciers advanced onto Jameson Land, East Greenland during the late glacial–early Holocene Milne Land Stade

open access: yesPolar Research, 2014
We report on 10Be and optically stimulated luminescence ages from moraines and glaciolacustrine sediments on eastern Jameson Land, East Greenland. Sampled landforms and sediment are associated with advances of outlet glaciers from the local Liverpool ...

Glacial geomorphology of the Brabazon & Butler Downs, Rangitata Valley, South Island, New Zealand

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2017
The inland valleys of New Zealand’s South Island were heavily glaciated during the last glacial cycle. Subsequent fluvial incision has eroded out glacial deposits from the valleys in many locations, making it difficult to reconstruct glacial dynamics and

Lateglacial studies in the western valleys of the Italian Julian Alps and in the Koritnica valley

open access: yesActa Geographica Slovenica, 2014
Different from the northern valleys of the Italian Julian Alps the bottoms of the western valleys do not contain any late-pleistocene moraines. However, common to all valleys is the large glaciation most probably in the Gschnitz-stage, in which the ...
