Clitellate worms (Annelida) in late-glacial and Holocene sedimentary DNA records from the Polar Urals and northern Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-11-26)While there are extensive macro‐ and microfossil records of a range of plants and animals from the Quaternary, earthworms and their close relatives amongst annelids are not preserved as fossils and therefore the knowledge ... -
Deglaciation of the highest mountains in Scandinavia at the Younger Dryas–Holocene transition: evidence from surface exposure-age dating of ice-marginal moraines
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Surface exposure–age dating was applied to rock surfaces associated with ice-marginal moraines at elevations of ~1520–1780 m a.s.l. on the slopes of Galdhøpiggen and Glittertinden, the two highest mountains in Scandinavia ... -
Deglaciation of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet and a Younger Dryas ice cap in the outer Hardangerfjorden area, southwestern Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Understanding past responses of ice sheets to climate change provides an important long-term context for observations of present day, and projected future, ice-sheet change. In this work, we reconstruct the deglaciation ... -
The discovery of the Younger Dryas, and comments on the current meaning and usage of the term
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The Younger Dryas (YD) cold event was discovered in Denmark by Hartz and Mithers in 1904 and the term coined by Hartz in 1912. It was identified as a lacustrine clay bed containing plant macrofossils of an Arctic flora, ... -
Growth and retreat of the last British–Irish Ice Sheet, 31 000 to 15 000 years ago: the BRITICE-CHRONO reconstruction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The BRITICE-CHRONO consortium of researchers undertook a dating programme to constrain the timing of advance, maximum extent and retreat of the British–Irish Ice Sheet between 31 000 and 15 000 years before present. The ... -
An integrated geological characterization of the Mid-Pleistocene to Holocene geology of the Sørlige Nordsjø II offshore wind site, southern North Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Subsurface deposits in recently glaciated marine areas are highly heterogeneous, representing a range of glacial and postglacial environments and processes including glacitectonism, overconsolidation, fluvial and lacustrine ... -
Stratigraphy and age of a Neoglacial sedimentary succession of proglacial outwash and an alluvial fan in Langedalen, Veitastrond, western Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)This study presents the sedimentary succession of an outwash plain and an alluvial fan located along the valley Langedalen at the south-eastern side of the Jostedalsbreen ice cap in inner Sogn, western Norway. A newly ... -
An updated Weichselian chronostratigraphic framework of the Kongsfjorden Trough Mouth Fan and its implications for the glacial history of Svalbard
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The Arctic is a climate-sensitive area, responding rapidly to present changes, but for the past changes, the record is still incomplete. For instance, the Weichselian glacial history of the Svalbard–Barents Sea Ice Sheet ...
