  1. 1. A multimethod approach to dating Quaternary sediments from the Arctic Ocean

    Författare :Gabriel West; Matthew O'Regan; Darrell Kaufman; Helena Alexanderson; Guillaume St-Onge; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arctic Ocean; Amino Acid Geochronology; Optically Stimulated Luminescence Dating; Palaeomagnetism; maringeologi; Marine Geology;

    Sammanfattning : The marine sedimentary environment in the polar regions is different from the rest of the world’s oceans, as it is greatly influenced by the cryosphere. In the Arctic, sea ice and icebergs can transport vast amounts of sediments, delivered by extensive fluvial systems from the surrounding continents, which have been shaped by the waxing and waning of large terrestrial ice sheets during the Quaternary period.

  3. 2. Evolution and taxonomy of Cambrian arthropods from Greenland and Sweden

    Författare :Martin Stein; John S. Peel; Dieter Waloszek; David J. Siveter; Reinhardt M. Kristensen; David L. Bruton; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cambrian; Arthropods; Trilobites; Evolution; Greenland; Sweden; Historical geology and palaeontology; Historisk geologi och paleontologi;

    Sammanfattning : Arthropods have a rich fossil record spanning the Phanerozoic. Biomineralized forms such as the extinct trilobites are particularly common and are proven index fossils for biostratigraphy. Forms with an unmineralized cuticle are more rare, preserved only in so called konservat lagerstätten. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Mobilitet och estetik. Nuukfjorden på Grönlands västkust som människornas livsvärld för 4000 år sedan. : Mobility and Aesthetics. The Nuuk Fjord on the west coast of Greenland as a human life-world 4000 years ago

    Sammanfattning : The point must be to experience things throughout one’s life in all their glory and wonder (Poul Henningsen) The dissertation deals with newly excavated archaeological finds from the Palaeoeskimos who lived around the Nuuk Fjord on the west coast of Greenland about 4000 years ago. The purpose of the study is to present as full a picture a possible of the whole life-world that was theirs. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Remote sensing of supra-glacial lakes on the west Greenland Ice Sheet

    Författare :A. Malin Johansson; Ian A. Brown; Peter Jansson; Johan Kleman; Andreas Ahlstrøm; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Supra-glacial lakes; Greenland Ice Sheet; Ice melting; Remote sensing; SAR; MODIS; Time-series analysis; Physical Geography; naturgeografi;

    Sammanfattning : The Greenland Ice Sheet is the largest ice sheet in the northern hemisphere. Ongoing melting of the ice sheet, resulting in increased mass loss relative to the longer term trend, has raised concerns about the stability of the ice sheet. Melt water generated at the surface is temporarily stored in supra-glacial lakes on the ice sheet. LÄS MER
