Performance of shallow anchor in ice-rich silt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Thesis (M.S.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2014Shallow anchor systems have been widely used for decades due to their time and cost efficiency. Yet when it comes to cold regions like Alaska, new challenges caused by the harsh environment need to be ...

Time‐lapse cameras bridge the gap between remote sensing and in situ observations of tundra phenology

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract As the Arctic experiences continued warming, significant ecosystem changes, such as the northwards migration of woody species, are underway in tundra landscapes throughout the region. Despite these observable shifts, there remains a gap in our understanding of how climate warming impacts the phenology of tundra plants—specifically, the timing ...

Global-scale estimation of diffuse groundwater recharge : model tuning to local data for semi-arid and arid regions and assessment of climate change impact [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Groundwater recharge is the major limiting factor for the sustainable use of groundwater. To support water management in a globalized world, it is necessary to estimate, in a spatially resolved way, global-scale groundwater recharge.

Two orders of wall‐to‐wall geographic data

open access: yesArea, EarlyView.
Short Abstract The use of the term ‘wall‐to‐wall’ to describe geographically extensive data without any singular definition in the remote sensing and geographically related analysis. This work presents an assessment of the application of the term in the scientific literature. Abstract From personal observations of recent published works, the term “wall‐

Cave Palaeolithic of the Ural Mountains – a review

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The Ural Mountains are of fundamental importance for studying early human migrations along the geographical limits between Europe and Asia. Geological processes and past climates gave rise to numerous caves, mostly in Palaeozoic carbonate formations.

Drastic peatland regime shift and landscape disturbances connected to warm and cold climate events over the past centuries in subarctic Finland

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Palaeoecological studies reporting long‐term development histories of subarctic fens—explicitly, orohemiarctic peatlands—are scarce, and overall, permafrost‐free peatlands located in the immediate vicinity of permafrost zones have received little attention in Fennoscandia. Here, we use a multiproxy approach to study the millennial‐scale dynamics of two
