Palaeowinds and depositional conditions from Holocene loess in Sweden and Finland

Boreas, EarlyView.
The nature of deglacial and Holocene wind regimes in Fennoscandia is debated, as is the degree to which wind‐blown loess deposits exist in the region. Loess deposits in Fennoscandia are often relatively thin, discontinuous and less well‐sorted than typical loess, and questions remain over the degree of their post‐depositional reworking and the impact ...

Revised classification of glaciofluvial landforms in the Finnish sector of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet

Boreas, EarlyView.
Effective and sustainable land use, conservation, and the use of geological resources (incl. raw materials, aggregates and groundwater) require a clear classification system of sedimentary units, with well‐defined vocabulary and unified mapping practices.

A tephrostratigraphic investigation of the continuously varved Holocene Boreal lake Nautajärvi, Finland, provides precise age estimate for Lairg A/Hekla 5 eruption

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 1212-1229, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Numerous cryptotephra layers originating from Icelandic volcanoes and further afield have reached Northern Europe during the Holocene. Refining the precise timing and the relative frequency of local and distal eruptions requires well‐resolved continuous sediment archives. Lake Nautajärvi is located in central‐southern Finland (61°48′ N, 24°41′

De Geer moraine internal architecture based on sedimentological and geophysical investigations and implications for ice‐marginal reconstructions

Boreas, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 687-710, October 2025.
De Geer moraines may act as valuable ice‐marginal indicators; however, to date, their variable mode of formation has presented challenges for this utility. Here, we present sedimentological and ground penetrating radar data of DGMs located in southwest Finland.

Geomorphology and Late Pleistocene–Holocene Sedimentary Processes of the Eastern Gulf of Finland

Geosciences, 2018
In 2017, a detailed study of the Eastern Gulf of Finland (the Baltic Sea) seafloor was performed to identify and map submerged glacial and postglacial geomorphologic features and collect data pertinent to the understanding of sedimentation in postglacial

Younger Dryas and Early Holocene ice‐margin dynamics in northwest Russia

Boreas, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 376-400, July 2024.
Although the dynamics of the last Fennoscandian Ice Sheet are relatively well constrained in the Nordic countries, ice‐margin dynamics in NW Russia are comparatively less well understood. In this paper, large‐scale geomorphological data and a comprehensive numerical age database are used to reconstruct Younger Dryas and Early Holocene ice‐margin ...

Genesis of the Lammi esker (Sothern Finland)

Fennia: International Journal of Geography, 1973
The Lammi esker forms a part of an esker chain stretching NW from the moraines of I Salpausselkä. The described section is about 10 km long. The Lammi esker runs along the axis of a well‑marked trough in the bedrock.

Glacial geomorphology and dynamics in Soviet Karelia interpreted by means of satellite imagery

Fennia: International Journal of Geography, 1985
The glacial geomorphology of Soviet Karelia was mapped using Landsat satellite imagery. The data of the multispectral scanner were processed using the photographic image enhancement and color combination tech­nique for visual interpretation ...

Aufzucht, Spermaproduktion und Befruchtungserfolg bei Ayrshirebullen in der Besamungsstation Salpausselkä

Agricultural and Food Science, 1973
Aufzucht, Fütterung und Haltung üben einen grossen Einfluss auf die Spermaproduktion und den Befruchtungserfolg der Zuchtbullen aus. Von 44 finnischen Ayrshirebullen der Besamungsstation Salpausselkä wurden die Aufzuchtergebnisse, die Spermaproduktion ...
