    • Arctic Ocean glacial history 

      Jakobsson, Martin; Andreassen, Karin; Bjarnadóttir, Lilja Rún; Dove, Dayton; Dowdeswell, Julian A.; England, John H.; Funder, Svend; Hogan, Kelly; Ingólfsson, Ólafur; Jennings, Anne; Krog Larsen, Nikolaj; Kirchner, Nina; Landvik, Jon Y.; Mayer, Larry; Mikkelsen, Naja; Möller, Per; Niessen, Frank; Nilsson, Johan; O'Reagan, Matt; Polyak, Leonid; Nørgaard-Pedersen, Niels; Stein, Ruediger (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013-11-14)
      While there are numerous hypotheses concerning glacial–interglacial environmental and climatic regime shifts in the Arctic Ocean, a holistic view on the Northern Hemisphere's late Quaternary ice-sheet extent and their impact on ocean and sea-ice dynamics remains to be established. Here we aim to provide a step in this direction by presenting an overview of Arctic Ocean glacial history, based on the ...

    • Holocene precipitation seasonality in northern Svalbard: Influence of sea ice and regional ocean surface conditions 

      Kjellman, Sofia Elisabeth; Schomacker, Anders; Thomas, Elizabeth K.; Håkansson, Lena; Duboscq, Sandrine; Cluett, Allison; Farnsworth, Wesley R.; Allaart, Lis; Cowling, Owen; McKay, Nicholas P.; Brynjólfsson, Skafti; Ingólfsson, Ólafur (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-06-13)
      Arctic precipitation is predicted to increase in the coming century, due to a combination of enhanced northward atmospheric moisture transport and local surface evaporation from ice-free seas. However, large model uncertainties, limited long-term observations, and high spatiotemporal variability limit our understanding of these mechanisms, emphasizing the need for paleoclimate records of precipitation ...

    • Persistence of Holocene ice cap in northeast Svalbard aided by glacio-isostatic rebound 

      Farnsworth, Wesley Randall; Ingólfsson, Ólafur; Brynjólfsson, Skafti; Allaart, Lis; Kjellman, Sofia Elisabeth; Kjær, Kurt H.; Larsen, Nicolaj K.; Macias-Fauria, Marc; Siggaard-Andersen, Marie-Louise; Schomacker, Anders (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-29)
      The deglaciation of the Svalbard-Barents Sea Ice Sheet was driven by relative sea-level rise, the incursion of North Atlantic waters around Spitsbergen, and increasing summer insolation. However, ice retreat was inter rupted by asynchronous re-advances that occurred into high relative seas, during a period associated with warm regional waters and elevated summer temperatures. Better understanding ...

    • Postglacial relative sea level change and glacier activity in the early and late Holocene: Wahlenbergfjorden, Nordaustlandet, Svalbard 

      Schomacker, Anders; Farnsworth, Wesley Randall; Ingólfsson, Ólafur; Allaart, Lis; Håkansson, Lena; Retelle, Michael; Marie-Louise, Siggaard-Andersen; Korsgaard, Niels J.; Rouillard, Alexandra; Kjellman, Sofia Elisabeth (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-05-01)
      Sediment cores from Kløverbladvatna, a threshold lake in Wahlenbergfjorden, Nordaustlandet, Svalbard were used to reconstruct Holocene glacier fluctuations. Meltwater from Etonbreen spills over a threshold to the lake, only when the glacier is significantly larger than at present. Lithological logging, loss-on-ignition, ITRAX scanning and radiocarbon dating of the cores show that Kløverbladvatna ...

    • Submarginal drumlin formation and late Holocene history of Fláajökull, southeast Iceland 

      Jónsson, Sverrir A.; Benediktsson, Ívar Örn; Ingólfsson, Ólafur; Schomacker, Anders; Bergsdóttir, Helga Lucia; Jacobson Jr., William R.; Linderson, Hans (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Fláajökull is a non-surging outlet glacier draining the south-eastern part of the Vatnajökull, southeast Iceland. Fláajökull was stationary or advanced slightly between 1966 and 1995 and formed a prominent end moraine. Glacial retreat since then has revealed a cluster of 15 drumlins. This study focuses on the morphology and sedimentology of the drumlins. They are 100–600 m long, 40–130 m wide, and ...
