Weichselian history of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet centre, Kvarken archipelago, western Finland—flow shifts, thermal regime and deglaciation

Boreas, EarlyView.
Rapid thaw of the Earth's cryosphere in response to anthropogenic warming highlights the need to identify and understand the contrasting signatures of past ice‐sheet stability and collapse. The Kvarken archipelago, western Finland, at the centre of the former Fennoscandian Ice Sheet (FIS), has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in recognition

Paleogeographic numerical modeling of marginal seas for the Holocene – an exemplary study of the Baltic Sea [PDF]

Earth System Dynamics
The sustainable management of marginal seas is based on a thorough understanding of their evolutionary trends in the past. The paleogeographic evolution of marginal seas is controlled not only by global and regional driving forces (eustatic sea-level ...

Palaeoenvironmental and climatic changes from the lateglacial of the Saalian to the Late Weichselian in central Poland: a multiproxy study from Józefów

Boreas, EarlyView.
Józefów site is a case study which provides a detailed record of environmental and climate changes and confirms the main traces of the landscape morphogenesis of the Late Pleistocene established in central‐eastern Europe. This study presents a multiproxy reconstruction of palaeoenvironment under variable climatic conditions from the retreat of the ...

Identifying hotspots of faunal data deficiency to direct urgent research and monitoring

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Data deficiency is a substantial challenge for extinction risk assessments because incomplete data means we cannot accurately identify priority protected areas for conservation. Here, we use the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) distributions of amphibians, sharks and rays, fish, mammals, birds, and reptiles to identify ...

Is Viola uliginosa critically endangered in Poland? - New data on the distribution of the species

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2011
Viola uliginosa Besser is a European species mainly known from the Baltic Region. It is endangered in a significant part of its range. Research carried out in the southeastern part of Poland led to the discovery of numerous sites of Viola uliginosa ...

Stable Isotope–Enabled Particle Drift Models Predict Where High‐Resolution Isotope Analyses Can Discriminate Among Larval Trajectories in Atlantic Mackerel

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine fish commonly move across distinct habitats throughout their lifetimes, particularly during larval stages, when they are particularly difficult to track. Such transitions are necessary as environmental demands and predation pressures change dramatically with increases in body size.

Charm pendants found among the Roman-time antiquities of the south-eastern Baltic region

Вестник археологии, антропологии и этнографии, 2020
The article is aimed at tracing the origin of Roman pendants (referred to as ‘charms’ in Baltic archaeology), dating them and, if possible, determining their semantic meaning. The analysis of these artefacts, found among the antiquities from the mouth of

Connectivity between breeding sites, wintering areas, and migration routes in Common Terns (Sterna hirundo) breeding in the Western Palaearctic

Ibis, EarlyView.
Detailed knowledge about bird migration patterns can enhance our understanding of the evolution of migration and temporal changes in space use throughout the annual cycle. Additionally, as many migratory bird species are experiencing population declines, understanding the connectivity between their spatial distributions during breeding, migration and ...

Resource partitioning of a Mexican clam in species-poor Baltic Sea sediments indicates the existence of a vacant trophic niche

Scientific Reports
Invasive species are often generalists that can take advantage of formerly unexploited resources. The existence of such vacant niches is more likely in species-poor systems like the Baltic Sea. The suspension feeding wedge clam, Rangia cuneata, native to
