DOI: 10.1002/jqs.3058
Abstract: The Svalbard-Barents ice sheet was predominantly a marine-based ice sheet and reconstructing the timing and rate of its decay during the last deglaciation can inform predictions of future decay of marine-based ice sheets (e.g. West… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/17518369.2017.1409585
Abstract: ABSTRACT Colonial seabirds from neighbouring breeding aggregations may share foraging grounds or utilize different areas in order to decrease the competition over food resources. In our study, we present the meso-scale variations in the diet… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/bor.12393
Abstract: Ten monitoring sites were established in 1986 near the Scottbreen and Renardbreen glaciers (Bellsund, Spitsbergen) in order to determine the rates of gelifluction on raised marine terraces and on talus cones, accumulation on talus cones,… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/se-12-1025-2021
Abstract: Abstract. The present study of field, petrological, exploration well, and seismic data describes backward-dipping duplexes comprised of phyllitic coal and bedding-parallel decollements and thrusts localized along lithological transitions in tectonically thickened Lower Devonian to lowermost… read more here.
