Boreas, EarlyView.This study focuses on the deglaciation dynamics in the northeastern sector of the Iceland Ice Sheet, by investigating transverse ridges, together with glacifluvial and ice‐marginal landforms. The main emphasis is on the transverse ridges, which are primarily interpreted as ribbed moraines – the first to be described in Iceland.

Boreas, EarlyView.De Geer moraines may act as valuable ice‐marginal indicators; however, to date, their variable mode of formation has presented challenges for this utility. Here, we present sedimentological and ground penetrating radar data of DGMs located in southwest Finland.

A preliminary Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) study of magnetite surface microtextures from the Wahianoa moraines, Mt Ruapehu, New Zealand. [PDF]
, 2010 Scanning electron microscope (SEM) of quartz micro‐textures has routinely been used to identify the depositional environment of sediments in areas of former ice‐sheet glaciation.

Boreas, EarlyView.Here we report on the properties of a glacial sediment succession including various till facies and some subglacial meltwater deposits from a site in central Poland close to the outermost extent of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet during the last glaciation.

Boreas, EarlyView.Basal conditions that facilitate fast ice flow are still poorly understood and their parameterization in ice‐flow models results in high uncertainties in ice‐flow and consequent sea‐level rise projections. Direct observations of basal conditions beneath modern ice streams are limited due to the inaccessibility of the bed.

Boreas, EarlyView.Recent public releases of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data in south central British Columbia (BC), Canada have revealed several landforms resembling ‘murtoos’, previously identified across portions of Scandinavia. In this study, we investigate the morphology and sedimentology of these landforms, the first report of their kind associated with ...

Look past the cooperative eye hypothesis: reconsidering the evolution of human eye appearance
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The external appearance of the human eye has been prominently linked to the evolution of complex sociocognitive functions in our species. The cooperative eye hypothesis (CEH) proposes that human eyeballs, with their weakly expressed conjunctival and scleral pigmentation, are uniquely conspicuous and evolved under selective pressures to behave ...
