DOI: 10.1002/2017jf004297
Abstract: Outlet glaciers of the Greenland Ice Sheet transport ice from the interior to the ocean and contribute directly to sea level rise because because discharge and ablation often exceed the accumulation. To develop a better… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.lithos.2019.03.017
Abstract: Abstract We report major, trace elements and Pb, Hf, Nd and Sr isotopes in 61–54 Ma old basalts from Svartenhuk Halvo Peninsula (Greenland). This area corresponds to the northernmost exposure of the West Greenland volcanic province,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.precamres.2020.105615
Abstract: Abstract Different geodynamic models exist for the growth and differentiation of Archean continental crust, ranging from horizontal tectonics with subduction zones to vertical tectonics with foundering of greenstone sequences. U–Pb zircon geochronology, field relationships, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2019.05.007
Abstract: Abstract The sensitivity of mountain glaciers to small-scale climate fluctuations makes records of their past extent among the best proxies for identifying spatio-temporal climate variability. Here we build on the few existing Holocene records of… read more here.

Modelling the Hafnium–Neodymium Evolution of Early Earth: A Study from West Greenland
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Journal of Petrology"
DOI: 10.1093/petrology/egy110
Abstract: The processes of partial melting and the segregation and migration of melt underpin the differentiation of the lithosphere. The Sm–Nd and Lu–Hf isotopic systems, which are sensitive to these processes, behave similarly during mantle–crust differentiation,… read more here.

Bycatch mitigation in the West Greenland lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) fishery using modified gillnets
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Royal Society Open Science"
DOI: 10.1098/rsos.221536
Abstract: Bycatch in gillnets is a global issue and mitigation measures that balance target species catch rates, bycatch reduction and fisher support are scarce. In the North Atlantic lumpfish fisheries, bycatch includes marine mammals and seabirds,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/feart.2017.00100
Abstract: Glaciological and hydraulic factors that control the timing and mechanisms of glacier lake outburst floods (GLOFs) remain poorly understood. This study used measurements of lake level at 15 min intervals and known lake bathymetry to… read more here.
