Synchronous terminus change of East Antarctic outlet glaciers linked to climatic forcing [PDF]
, 2013 In recent years there has been a growing trend of acceleration, thinning and retreat of ocean-terminating outlet glaciers in both the Greenland and West Antarctic Ice Sheets, resulting in an increasing contribution to sea level rise.

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 ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Subfossil insect communities from the Quartz Creek site provide a detailed record of both Late Pleistocene steppe–tundra and Holocene boreal forest ecosystems in central Yukon Territory, Canada. Fifteen Pleistocene assemblages (marine isotope stages [MIS] 4 to 2) are dominated by steppe–tundra and dry‐tundra taxa, particularly the weevils ...

On the estimation of ice volume of alpine glaciers
Лëд и снег, 2015 Volume (V) − area (S) scaling approach (V = kSp, where V and S are obtained from direct measurements) is widely used for ice storage assessments in glacier-mountain systems.

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Cadí Massif (42°17′09″ N, 1°38′11″ E; 2649 m a.s.l.) in the southeastern Pyrenees preserves clear evidence of Late Pleistocene glaciation, although previous research has focused almost exclusively on its northern slope. By contrast, the southern slope has remained largely unexplored.

A talus rock glacier in Nantlle Valley, North Wales
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Landforms comprising mixtures of fine and coarse sediment and deposited during late glacial times are ubiquitous in the British mountains. In many cases, their interpretation has often proved contentious; as a result, the non‐generic term discrete debris accumulations (DDA) has been used to describe them and, over the last 50 years, some have ...

Почвознание, агрохимия и екология, 2010 Based on the undisputable proved withdrawal of the plane glaciers to North and the mountain glaciers withdrawal upward after thе Glacial epoch, we think that the Brown mountain forest soils in the middle and south Euro-Asian mountains are degraded ...

Assessing ice-cliff backwasting and its contribution to total ablation of debris-covered Miage glacier, Mont Blanc massif, Italy [PDF]
, 2014 Continuous surface debris cover strongly reduces the ablation of glaciers, but high melt rates may occur at ice cliffs that are too steep to hold debris.
