Published in 2024 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"

DOI: 10.1002/esp.5966

Abstract: Glaciers and ice caps surrounding the Greenland Ice Sheet are found to be sensitive to warming climate thus the knowledge of their thickness and internal structure is substantial to determine their future impact on sea… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"

DOI: 10.1002/esp.70116

Abstract: The Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) produces ~8% of the global suspended sediment delivered to the oceans and is the only Arctic region where deltas are advancing. However, understanding of the dynamics of sediment transfer from… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "International Journal of Climatology"

DOI: 10.1002/joc.6275

Abstract: The combined impact of Greenland sea ice, Eurasian snow, and the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on the out‐of‐phase relationship between the Indian summer monsoon (ISM) and Korean summer monsoon (KSM) were investigated through numerical experiments.… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Limnology and Oceanography"

DOI: 10.1002/lno.10633

Abstract: The melting of sea ice, increased terrestrial runoff and meltwater from the Greenland Ice Sheet contribute to increased freshening and stratification of Arctic seas. However, the impacts on ecosystem structure and carbon cycling are still… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Polar Biology"

DOI: 10.1007/s00300-021-02952-y

Abstract: The bumble bee Bombus polaris (Curtis 1835) is known from the northernmost region of Greenland. But how it can survive there, where in terms of geographic origin it came from, and which species in addition… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Human Ecology"

DOI: 10.1007/s10745-018-0020-0

Abstract: There is increasing evidence to suggest that arctic cultures and ecosystems have followed non-linear responses to climate change. Norse Scandinavian farmers introduced agriculture to sub-arctic Greenland in the late tenth century, creating synanthropic landscapes and… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Natural Hazards"

DOI: 10.1007/s11069-019-03582-8

Abstract: High-frequency (5–20 Hz) seismic signals precursory to and embedded within the June 17, 2017 ML = 4 earthquake–landslide event are analyzed. This event in western Greenland generated a tsunami in Karrat fjord inundating Nuugaatsiaq village 32 km distant. Spectrogram… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Advances in Space Research"

DOI: 10.1016/j.asr.2020.01.022

Abstract: Abstract The Helheim glacier, located in southeast Greenland, has more than ten campaign-type Global Positioning System (GPS) sites; data processing led to the observation of a very rapid change in the ionospheric delay. To identify… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Environmental Impact Assessment Review"

DOI: 10.1016/j.eiar.2021.106583

Abstract: Abstract Uncertainty is an inherent part of impact assessment (IA), and can vary in type and source. However, according to previous research, uncertainty is rarely explicitly acknowledged and handled in IA, indicating that it is… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Earth and Planetary Science Letters"

DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2017.06.042

Abstract: Abstract We use isothermal and temperature dependent in-field and magnetic remanence methods together with electron microscopy to characterize different sieved size fractions from terrestrial sediments collected in Iceland and southern Greenland. The magnetic fraction of… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Geoscience frontiers"

DOI: 10.1016/j.gsf.2017.02.008

Abstract: Abstract Estimates of early atmosphere compositions from metamorphosed banded iron formations (BIFs) including the well-studied ≥3.7 BIFs of the Isua supracrustal belt (Greenland) are dependent on knowledge of primary versus secondary Fe-mineralogical assemblages. Using new… read more here.
