Integrating the INTIMATE records using tephrochronology: rising to the challenge
Little has challenged our understanding of climate change more so than the abruptness with which large-scale shifts in temperature occurred during the Late Quaternary.

ICEland-1: a geochronological database for reconstructing Late Quaternary glacier, relative sea level, and paleoclimate patterns in Iceland [PDF]
We present a detailed and quality-controlled chronological database for past glacier, relative sea level, and paleoclimate changes in Iceland during the Late Quaternary (∼60 ka): ICEland-1. The curated database includes 1744 data points and metadata from

A summary of terminology used in tephra-related studies
The word ‘tephra’, derived from a Greek word for ash, is a collective term for all the unconsolidated, primary pyroclastic products of a volcanic eruption.

Cryptotephras in European Arctic: extending tephrochronology to northern Finland and Russia
Tephrochronology is a powerful method for correlating geological and archeological sequences by utilizing geochemically fingerprinted tephra layers (volcanic ash).
Elena Garova 1996-

Thorarinsson (1944) pioneered the use of tephrochronology and its application in NW Europe. The basis of this chronological tool is the use of time-parallel marker tephra (i.e., ash

High-resolution Holocene record based on detailed tephrochronology from Torfdalsvatn, north Iceland, reveals natural and anthropogenic impacts on terrestrial and aquatic environments [PDF]
Open questions remain around the Holocene variability of climate in Iceland, including the relative impacts of natural and anthropogenic factors on Late Holocene vegetation change and soil erosion.

Historical and paleo-tsunami deposits on Kamchatka, Russia: long-term chronologies and long-distance correlations [PDF]
Along the eastern coast of Kamchatka, at a number of localities, we have identified and attempted to assign ages to deposits of both historic and prehistoric (paleo-) tsunamis.

Tephra studies in New Zealand: an historical review.
The development of tephra studies in New Zealand may be divided into four main periods: Period 1, late 19th century to late 1920s; Period 2, late 1920s to early 1950s; Period 3, early 1950s to 1973; Period 4, 1973 to late 1980s.

We made the geochemical analysis of the volcanic material from the sediment core AMK-340 (the Russian research vessel “Akademik Mstislav Keldysh” station 340), the central zone of the Reykjanes Ridge. Two ash-bearing sediment units within the
