      Kveithola is a glacially-carved, E-W trending trough located in the NW Barents Sea, an epicontinental shelf sea of the Arctic Ocean located off northern Norway and Russia. A set of confined sediment drifts (the “Kveithola Drift”) is located in the inner part of the trough. In general, drift deposits are commonly characterized by high lateral continuity, restricted occurrence of hiatuses and relatively ...
    • Grounding line proximal sediment characteristics at a marine-based, late-stage ice stream margin 

      Rüther, Denise Christina; Winsborrow, Monica; Andreassen, Karin; Forwick, Matthias (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-05-12)
      Geomorphological evidence suggests that ice streams undergo frequent dynamic changes towards the end of their life cycles, but the associated sedimentary characteristics and processes remain poorly understood. Here, we present new sedimentological data from a Late Weichselian marine‐based ice stream in upper Bjørnøyrenna, northern Barents Sea, which experienced accelerated flow, intense calving of ...
    • Palaeoenvironment of the Barents Sea during the last deglaciation and Holocene : processes and timing 

      Rüther, Denise Christina (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2012-03-01)
      The scope of this PhD thesis is twofold: Firstly, processes, patterns and timing of the last deglaciation in the Barents Sea are reconstructed and secondly, depositional conditions on the Barents shelf during Holocene are elucidated. This cumulative PhD thesis encompasses an introductory part and five papers - three as first-author and two as co-author. Three papers are focused on the most prominent ...
