Water and fire as transformation elements in ritual deposits of the Scandinavian Neolithic
Documenta Praehistorica, 2011 Flint axes are the most common Neolithic (4000–1800 calBC) artefacts found in southern Scandinavia. The vast majority of the tens of thousands that we know of have been recovered from former wetlands.

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Kilometre‐scale climate simulations for Scandinavia indicate the importance of high resolution for reproducing downslope windstorms (DWs). Scandinavian DWs on average induce a limited local warming but with large variability due to the region's complex orography.

Polar‐low track prediction using machine‐learning methods
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Machine‐learning models are developed to produce reliable and efficient forecasts of polar‐low (PL) trajectories 12 hours ahead. A temporal model (RLSTM) benefiting from the rolling‐forecast strategy, improves overall prediction accuracy and is suitable for quick experimentation, while a spatiotemporal model (PL‐UNet), incorporating both historical and

Synoptic conditions governing upwelling along the Polish Baltic coast
Oceanologia, 2013 The study analyses atmospheric feedback to the occurrence of upwelling along the Polish Baltic coast. Upwelling events were identified on the basis of daily mean sea surface temperature (SST) maps from the period 1982-2010 derived from the NOAA OI SST V2

Diagnosing the 11‐year solar cycle's influence on the East Atlantic pattern
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.A previously unidentified solar‐cycle response in the East Atlantic pattern is found in late winter at lag +3 years with larger amplitude than the NAO response. A statistically significant NAO response to the solar cycle is seen in late winter at lag 0 years.

Mesolithic Europe : glimpses of another world [PDF]
, 2008 [First Paragraph] Mesolithic Europe holds a special place in our imagination. Perhaps more than any other region and period, it is unique in conjuring up a strange sense of both 'otherness' and familiarity.

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.We investigate whether Central European heatwaves (HWs) forming under omega blocking differ from those enabled by subtropical ridges, in terms of both air‐mass origin and processes warming air parcels along their way. Using ERA5‐based backward trajectories and a Lagrangian temperature anomaly decomposition, we identify significant differences in the ...

Die Bedeutung der Jagd in der Trichterbecherkultur
Journal of Neolithic Archaeology, 2005 The role of hunting in the Funnel Beaker Culture is analysed by a comparative study of the proportions of wild animal bones at sites in southern Scandinavia and Central Europe. The study revealed signifi cant regional differences.
