Anthropogenic and environmental drivers of vegetation change in southeastern Norway during the Holocene
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Uncovering anthropogenic and environmental drivers behind past biological change requires integrated analyses of long-term records from a diversity of disciplines. We applied an interdisciplinary approach exploring effects ... -
Holocene glacier variability and Neoglacial hydroclimate at Ålfotbreen, western Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-02)Glaciers and small ice caps respond rapidly to climate perturbations (mainly winter precipitation, and summer temperature), and the mass-balance of glaciers located in western Norway is governed mainly by winter precipitation ... -
Holocene multi-proxy environmental reconstruction from lake Hakluytvatnet, Amsterdamøya Island, Svalbard (79.5°N)
(Journal article, 2018-03)High resolution proxy records of past climate are sparse in the Arctic due to low organic production that restricts the use of radiocarbon dating and challenging logistics that make data collection difficult. Here, we ... -
Lake stratigraphy implies an 80 000 yr delayed melting of buried dead ice in northern Russia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2003)Sediment cores from lakes Kormovoye and Oshkoty in the glaciated region of the Pechora Lowland, northern Russia, reveal sediment gravity flow deposits overlain by lacustrine mud and gyttja. The sediments were deposited ... -
Reconstruction of glacier variability from lake sediments reveals dynamic Holocene climate in Svalbard
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-09-12)The Arctic is warming faster than anywhere else on Earth. Holocene proxy time-series are increasingly used to put this amplified response in perspective by understanding Arctic climate processes beyond the instrumental ...
