Understanding the course and dynamics of ancient river systems, such as the pre‐Odra, provides valuable insights into the post‐glacial evolution of landscapes and riverine processes. The northwest‐trending pre‐Odra was an important drainage system of the European mainland into the Baltic Basin during and after the Scandinavian Ice Sheet retreat ...

Map of Lower sediment (LS) thickness is a surrogate for the distribution of Thorncliffe Formation (TF) and ~75% of TF thickness from the slope of Niagara Escarpment east to Brighton. Inset images show the LS sequence at the Don Valleys brickyards (DVBY) and undeformed TF sand and gravel (~15 m) below Newmarket Till (NT) at sites L and Co.

Structural Glaciology of an Ice Layer in a Firn Fold, Ross Ice Shelf, Antarctica: Ice Grain Analysis [PDF]
Abstract A highly deformed area in the Ross Ice Shelf near the Bay of Whales was studied during the 1958–59 Antarctic summer season. A series of snow-firn folds up to 8 m. high and with a wavelength of approximately 100 m. occurs here.

Our knowledge of the Early Upper Palaeolithic occupation in northern central Europe is very limited, and recent research at the open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg in Hesse, Germany, provides important new information on the Aurignacian. The site is rather small (26.5 m2) and spatial analysis identified a central hearth with two associated ...

Numerous studies have shown that during the Quaternary there were substantial fluctuations in sea level in response to glacial–interglacial climate variability, reaching lowstand positions up to 134 m below the present sea level (b.s.l.). These fluctuations have had a strong influence on the morphology of shallow shelf seas, which preserve evidence of ...

Abstract Human activities shape erosion dynamics and landscape evolution, making effective modeling approaches essential for understanding these impacts. This study utilizes landscape evolution models with a streamlined parameterization process to evaluate the anthropogenic effects on the erosional trajectory of the Chestatee River watershed in ...

Abstract Earthflows are landslides in fine‐grained materials that alternate long dormant phases of very slow movement with short paroxysmal stages of rapid motion. These rapid phases are highly destructive, often causing severe damage to buildings and infrastructure.

Breakthrough in Measuring Snowfall Intensity With Hybrid Deep Learning and Surveillance Cameras
Abstract Accurate snowfall measurements are vital for disaster mitigation, climate studies, and many other applications. Widely deployed surveillance cameras offer novel possibilities for fine‐scale snowfall observation. This paper proposes HySnowNet, a hybrid framework that first extracts snowflakes using physical frequency domain techniques, then ...

Deep‐Seated Landslide Stability on Curved Basal Surfaces With and Without Glacier Buttressing
Abstract Glacial retreat influences landslide dynamics, yet the controls on stability and transient acceleration remain unclear. We develop a two‐dimensional mechanical model of landslides with curved basal surfaces, Mohr‐Coulomb friction, and ice buttressing.

Structural weaknesses in ice mélange revealed by high resolution ICEYE SAR imagery
The mixture of icebergs and sea ice in tidewater glacier fjords, known as ice mélange, is postulated to impact iceberg calving directly through physical buttressing and indirectly through freshwater fluxes altering fjord circulation. In this contribution,
