Flow‐pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet indicated by the subglacial lineation record over Norway, Sweden and Finland

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 612-669, July 2026.
We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...

Palaeowinds and depositional conditions from Holocene loess in Sweden and Finland

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 808-834, July 2026.
The nature of deglacial and Holocene wind regimes in Fennoscandia is debated, as is the degree to which wind‐blown loess deposits exist in the region. Loess deposits in Fennoscandia are often relatively thin, discontinuous and less well‐sorted than typical loess, and questions remain over the degree of their post‐depositional reworking and the impact ...

Revised classification of glaciofluvial landforms in the Finnish sector of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 702-716, July 2026.
Effective and sustainable land use, conservation, and the use of geological resources (incl. raw materials, aggregates and groundwater) require a clear classification system of sedimentary units, with well‐defined vocabulary and unified mapping practices.

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

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 670-701, July 2026.
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

Distribution of Tropical Vegetation From the Pliocene to the Anthropocene

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The tropics harbour most of Earth's terrestrial biodiversity. This biodiversity has been influenced by cycles of climatic stability and instability over millions of years and may be affected by abrupt changes in the near future. We reconstructed the geographic distribution of the major tropical vegetation types (deserts, semi‐arid ...

A Mountain Glacier Perspective on the Bipolar Seesaw

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract A global record of mountain glacier terminations during the last deglaciation (∼19–11 ka) dated by a large, uncurated data set of cosmogenic‐nuclide exposure ages highlights a statistically significant asynchrony in termination ages between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.

Climate-induced changes in the trophic status of a Central European lake

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2009
We present a case study of the development of Sacrower See, a stratified, eutrophic lake in northeastern Germany, over the past 13,000 years. Total epilimnetic phosphorus (TP) concentrations were reconstructed quantitatively using a diatom-TP transfer ...

Göbeklitepe in Palaeoclimate Context: Human Responses to Climate Change in the Upper Tigris and Euphrates Basins from the Younger Dryas to the Early Holocene

open access: yesHeritage
The upper Euphrates and Tigris basins are located in modern-day Southeast Türkiye, on the northern periphery of the Fertile Crescent. From the eleventh to the eighth millennium calBC, during the Younger Dryas and the Early Holocene, human communities in ...

Evolution of the Great Tehuelche Paleolake in the Torres del Paine National Park of Chilean Patagonia during the Last Glacial Maximum and Holocene Evolución del Gran Paleolago Tehuelche en el Parque Nacional Torres del Paine de la Patagonia chilena durante el Último Máximo Glacial y Holoceno

open access: yesAndean Geology, 2012
A number of glacial moraines are distributed from the eastern margin of the Torres del Paine drainage basin to near the present margin of the Patagonian Ice Fields, together with a set of regionally continuous lacustrine terraces related to glacial ...

Körtiktepe and the Early Neolithization in Upper Mesopotamia

open access: yesHöyük
Körtiktepe is the only site in southeastern Türkiye that provides securely dated evidence of Younger Dryas occupation. Together with Tell Qaramel and Tell Mureybet in the Middle Euphrates Basin, it played a pivotal role in the origins and early ...
