Respiration of aged soil carbon during fall in permafrost peatlands enhanced by active layer deepening following wildfire but limited following thermokarst [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Permafrost peatlands store globally significant amounts of soil organic carbon (SOC) that may be vulnerable to climate change. Permafrost thaw exposes deeper, older SOC to microbial activity, but SOC vulnerability to mineralization and release as carbon ...

Food web reconstruction of Barmaky, the oldest post‐LGM hunter‐gatherer site in north‐western Ukraine

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The site of Barmaky currently marks the oldest Epigravettian occupation of north‐western Ukraine shortly after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), dated to around 19 cal. ka BP. Stable isotope analyses of bone collagen from six terrestrial mammals and two bird species show a comparatively highly structured palaeo‐food web.

Unravelling the evolution of the Frébouge polygenetic cone in Val Ferret (Mont Blanc Massif)

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Proglacial settings in the Alps are typically polygenetic, often characterized by a complex and discontinuous interplay between glacial, fluvial and gravitational processes. These processes yield high volumes of sediments, which usually exceed their transportation capacity.

Debris at the edge: sedimentological dynamics of Hintereisferner's evolving terminus and glacial forefield, Austrian Alps

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The interaction between glaciers and the debris accumulating on their surfaces is critical as the Earth warms, with consequences for ice dynamics, hydrology and mass balance together with slope and sedimentary processes. Understanding this interaction is necessary since it influences ablation rates, sediment and meltwater pathways.

Tunnel lining studies II [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
In the CRREL tunnel (Fig. B1, B2), sublimation is extremely apparent, but because of the tunnels limited usage it poses no significant problems. However, in an operating mine with forced air ventilation and continuously operating machinery, the problems ...

Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

A novel experimental platform to monitor solid/water interfaces under freeze–thaw cycles

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract We design and implement an original experimental platform resting on Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) to capture nanoscale insights into key characteristics of solid/water interfaces subject to freeze–thaw conditions. The work is motivated by the observation that freezing and thawing underpin a variety of processes in the context of, e.g ...
