The stratigraphy and origin of the portaskaig boulder bed series (Dalradian) [PDF]
Geological Journal, 1965 AbstractThe late Pre‐Cambrian Portaskaig Boulder Bed Series shows a very uniform sequence for some 600 km along the Caledonian strike, from Connemara on the west coast of Ireland to Aberdeenshire in Scotland. The Series, which is divided into four groups of beds, comprises numerous individual boulder beds separated by stratified sediments.

Sensitivity of isochrones to surface mass balance and dynamics
Journal of Glaciology, 2023 The interior of an ice sheet consists of layers of accumulated snow, which contain important information on accumulation and ice dynamics that are imprinted on layer shapes over time.

Boninite and boninite-series volcanics in northern Zambales ophiolite: doubly vergent subduction initiation along Philippine Sea plate margins [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2018 A key component of subduction initiation rock suites is boninite, a high-magnesium andesite that is uniquely predominant in western Pacific forearc terranes and in select Tethyan ophiolites such as Oman and Troodos. We report, for the first time, the
