    Författare :Ewa Lind; Stefan Wastegård; Margareta Hansson; Britta Sannel; Victoria Smith; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tephrochronology; geochemical composition; Saksunarvatn Ash; Vedde Ash; Fosen Tephra; Askja-S; palaeoclimate; Younger Dryas; Early Holocene; “XRF ITRAX”; sediment geochemistry; stable isotopes; Faroe Islands; Norway; Sweden; kvartärgeologi; Quaternary Geology;

    Sammanfattning : Uncertainties about the rate and magnitude of future climate change have drawn attention to the climate variability following the Late Glacial-Early Holocene transition, c. 12-8 ka BP. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Clay-varve chronology and deglaciation during the Younger Dryas and Preboreal in the easternmost part of the Middle Swedish Ice Marginal Zone

  3. 3. Event stratigraphy for the Last Glacial-Holocene transition in eastern middle Sweden

    Författare :Jonas Björck; Michael J.C Walker; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Last Glacial-Holocene transition; event stratigraphy; eastern middle Sweden; pollen; plant macrofossils; marine calcareous fossils; microtephra; radiocarbon dating; clay varve chronology; GRIP; ice-core chronology; calendar year chronology; Preboreal oscillation; Yoldia Sea; Baltic Ice Lake; Quaternary Geology; kvartärgeologi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis outlines an event stratigraphy for the Last Glacial-Holocene transition in eastern middle Sweden. Events are short-lived occurrences that have left traces in the geological record and which, therefore, may be used for correlation and inter-regional comparisons. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Ashes to ashes : Applications of tephrochronology in Scandinavia

    Författare :Simon A. Larsson; Stefan Wastegård; Britta Sannel; Christine Lane; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tephrochronology; tephrostratigraphy; tephra; palaeoclimate; Last Glacial–Interglacial Transition; Scandinavia; naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

    Sammanfattning : The project presented in this thesis provides two examples of applications of tephrochronology in Scandinavia. The usage of tephra deposits preserved in sediments—i.e. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Deglacial impact of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet on the North Atlantic climate system

    Författare :Francesco Muschitiello; Barbara Wohlfarth; Raimund Muscheler; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; climate; North Atlantic; last deglaciation; isotope geochemistry; chronology; climate modeling; Marine Geology; maringeologi;

    Sammanfattning : The long warming transition from the Last Ice Age into the present Interglacial period, the last deglaciation, holds the key to our understanding of future abrupt climate change. In the last decades, a great effort has been put into deciphering the linkage between freshwater fluxes from melting ice sheets and rapid shifts in global ocean-atmospheric circulation that characterized this puzzling climate period.
