First finding of Icelandic tephra in Czechia: Vedde Ash identified in palaeolake sediments of Stará Jímka

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we report the first documented occurrence of the Icelandic Vedde Ash (VA) in the Bohemian Forest, identified within palaeolake sediments from Stará Jímka, Czechia, representing the first Icelandic tephra layer identified in Czechia.

Introducing a ramped pyrolysis/oxidation‐14CO2 analysis system operated with mobile molecular sieve traps

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract A novel instrument for the thermal degradation of sedimentary organic matter was set up at the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) in Bremerhaven, Germany, with the aim of enabling Ramped Pyrolysis/Oxidation‐14C analysis as direct CO2 gas measurement.

Disposition Model for Permafrost Degradation in Mountainous Regions

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Permafrost is a widespread thermal phenomenon in Arctic and high mountain regions that, in combination with steep terrain, exerts a key control on slope stability. Its degradation in response to climatic warming can modify the likelihood and timing of rockfall, debris flow and related mass movements. Robust information on the current state and

Narrar las prácticas del pasado: El potencial narrativo de la estratigrafía arqueológica como representativa de prácticas sociales To narrate practices of the past: The narrative potential of archaeological stratigraphy to represent social practices

open access: yesIntersecciones en Antropología, 2007
El presente trabajo estará consagrado, en lo esencial, a examinar la importancia de la narración dentro de la interpretación arqueológica. Para ello, se mostrará cómo y porqué se puede a través del estudio de la estratigrafía arqueológica crear e ...

Evaluating Testability of Permafrost Models Through Physical and Thermal Testing in Complex Mountain Terrain, Yukon, Canada

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Due to its subsurface nature, permafrost cannot be directly observed with the naked eye or optical remote sensing. Consequently, accurately describing its distribution and thermal state is challenging. This is especially true in vast, remote environments, where obtaining comprehensive field data is demanding or improbable.

Ocorrência de Ironstones no Devoniano da Bacia do Paraná

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology
Resumo: A origem de ironstones oolíticos, preservados no registro sedimentar, tem sido assunto de muitos debates nas últimas décadas. Tais depósitos formam importantes unidades no registro paleozoico e a determinação de seu significado sedimentológico e ...

Repeated Pleistocene Permafrost Episodes in the Western Pannonian Basin

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Concerning the study of past periglacial processes, the Pannonian Basin is a key area as it contains the southernmost frost polygons found in Central Europe. The presence or absence of permafrost is still, however, a matter of debate, and data on the timing of frost action are also scarce.

Internal Structure, Kinematics, and Prehistory of Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A), Brooks Range, Alaska

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A)—one of hundreds of FDLs in the Brooks Range of northern Alaska—is a slow‐moving landslide in permafrost that has been the subject of research since 2008 due to its close proximity to the Dalton Highway. Here, we synthesize more than a decade's worth of climate and surface measurements of monitored FDLs, and the ...

Internal Permafrost Structure of Geomorphologically Distinct Palsas in Northern Sweden Revealed by Quasi‐3D ERT

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Permafrost in northern peatlands occurs within individual palsas or extensive peat plateaus and controls local carbon storage. These permafrost landforms are complex, and their internal structure remains poorly understood. We used quasi‐3D electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) measurements, supported by UAV‐LiDAR topography, frost probing ...

Electrical Resistivity Tomography for the 2D and 3D Investigation of Pingos and Permafrost Mounds in Northern Canada's Mountain and Coastland Areas

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pingos and related permafrost mounds are widespread periglacial landforms in Arctic environments that are ice‐rich on the one hand and contain taliks on the other, making them vulnerable to climate change. So far, the interior, geophysical characteristics, and distribution of ground ice within these dome‐ or cone‐shaped features have not been ...
