• Early Holocene thinning and final demise of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet across the main drainage divide of southern Norway 

      Romundset, Anders; Akcar, Naki; Fredin, Ola; Andersen, Jane Lund; Høgaas, Fredrik; Christl, Marcus; Yesilyurt, Serdar; Schlüchter, Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      The thinning and final decay of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet in the Gudbrandsdalen area in central southern Norway is described, based on (1) cosmogenic 10Be surface exposure dating of 25 glacially transported boulders, (2) ...
    • Near-surface temperatures and potential for frost weathering in blockfields in Norway and Svalbard 

      Peter, Maria; Andersen, Jane Lund; Nixon, Francis Chantel; Etzelmüller, Bernd; Westermann, Sebastian; Fredin, Ola (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Blockfields remain enigmatic regarding their origin, internal structure, surface processes, and glaciological implications. In Scandinavia, blockfields are found on high-elevation, low-relief mountains (plateaus) across ...
    • Rapid post-glacial bedrock weathering in coastal Norway 

      Andersen, Jane Lund; Margreth, Annina; Fredin, Ola; Linge, Henriette; Goodfellow, Bradley W.; Faust, Johan Christoph; Knies, Jochen; Solbakk, Terje; Brook, Edward J.; Scheiber, Thomas; van der Lelij, Roelant; Burki, Valentin Josef; Rubensdotter, Brita Lena Eleonor Fredin; Himmler, Tobias; Yesilyurt, Serdar; Christl, Marcus; Vockenhuber, Christof; Akcar, Naki (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Quantifying bedrock weathering rates under diverse climate conditions is essential to understanding timescales of landscape evolution. Yet, weathering rates are often difficult to constrain, and associating a weathered ...
    • Regional sea-level highstand triggered Holocene ice sheet thinning across coastal Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica 

      Sugunuma, Yusuke; Kaneda, Heitaro; Mas e Braga, Martim; Ishiwa, Takeshige; Koyama, Takushi; Newall, Jennifer C.H.; Okuno, Jun'ichi; Obase, Takashi; Saito, Fuyuki; Rogozhina, Irina; Andersen, Jane Lund; Kawamata, Moto; Hirabayashi, Motohiro; Lifton, Nathaniel A.; Fredin, Ola; Harbor, Jonathan M.; Stroeven, Arjen P.; Abe-Ouchi, Ayako (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The East Antarctic Ice Sheet stores a vast amount of freshwater, which makes it the single largest potential contributor to future sea-level rise. However, the lack of well-constrained geological records of past ice sheet ...
    • A thicker Antarctic ice stream during the mid-Pliocene warm period 

      Mas e Braga, Martim; Jones, Richard S.; Bernales, Jorge; Andersen, Jane Lund; Fredin, Ola; Morlighem, Mathieu; Koester, Alexandria J.; Lifton, Nathaniel A.; Harbor, Jonathan M.; Suganuma, Yusuke; Glasser, Neil F.; Rogozhina, Irina; Stroeven, Arjen P. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Ice streams regulate most ice mass loss in Antarctica. Determining ice stream response to warmer conditions during the Pliocene could provide insights into their future behaviour, but this is hindered by a poor representation ...
    • A topographic hinge-zone divides coastal and inland ice dynamic regimes in East Antarctica 

      Andersen, Jane Lund; Newall, J.C.; Fredin, Ola; Glasser, Neil F.; Lifton, Nathaniel A.; Stuart, Finlay M.; Fabel, Derek; Caffee, Marc; Pedersen, Vivi K.; Koester, Alexandria; Sugunuma, Yusuke; Harbor, Jonathan M.; Stroeven, Arjen P. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The impact of late Cenozoic climate on the East Antarctic Ice Sheet is uncertain. Poorly constrained patterns of relative ice thinning and thickening impair the reconstruction of past ice-sheet dynamics and global sea-level ...
