The sediment-landform imprint of this glacial system, however, offers insight into ice-marginal processes that chronological control cannot. We present the first detailed investigation of sediments along the southwestern shores of Lake Tekapo, South Island. We identify seven lithofacies, from which a five-stage palaeoglaciological reconstruction of depositional and glaciotectonic events is proposed: (i) ice-marginal advance and deposition of outwash gravels in lithofacies (LF) 1; (ii) ice-marginal recession and the development of an ice-contact lake, manifest in rhythmite deposition and iceberg rafting of dropstones (LF 2), followed by a depositional hiatus; (iii) ice-marginal recession recorded in ice-proximal aggradation of glaciofluvial hyperconcentrated flows (LFs 3, 4); (iv) ice-marginal advance documented by glaciotectonic disturbance and localized hydrofracturing, coeval with the deposition of delta foresets and a subglacial diamicton/till (LFs 5, 6); (v) final stages of ice-marginal recession and deposition of outwash gravels in LF 7. Two infrared stimulated luminescence ages were obtained from the glaciolacustrine sediments and, whilst the dating has some limitations, the sediments pre-date both the global and local Last Glacial Maximum. Overall, this sequence, consistent with sediment fills recorded elsewhere across South Island, suggests recurrence of processes from different glacial advances and the role of topographic constraints on maintaining lake positions.","PeriodicalId":55112,"journal":{"name":"Geografiska Annaler Series A-Physical Geography","volume":"81 1","pages":"151 - 182"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88444626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dates were recalculated according to the new production models of 36Cl and 10Be cosmogenic isotopes. For this purpose, three glacial cirques were selected (Dos Hermanas, Laguna and Pepe Hernando), located on the eastern slope of Peñalara Peak, Spain (40°51'N, 3°57'O; 2428 m), the highest altitude of this mountain range. The application of the SHD method seems to be influenced neither by the different altitude of the samples nor by their height with respect to the current ground level. The degree of roughness of the rock surfaces (gneiss) has a slight influence, but does not change the actual volume of the results. The results of this work show a clear relationship between the CRE ages and the SHD R-values. The oldest landforms (31–19 ka) give mean values R < 50, both for moraine boulders and polished bedrock. The boulders of a rock glacier (16–15 ka) and the boulders of the innermost moraine yielded higher values: R-value >50. The youngest polished bedrock surface, located under the Peñalara Peak (12–11 ka), yielded R-value >60.","PeriodicalId":55112,"journal":{"name":"Geografiska Annaler Series A-Physical Geography","volume":"46 1","pages":"70 - 89"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87507131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Those modifications have significant consequences on mountaineering itineraries and make them technically more difficult and more dangerous. Although a growing number of studies have recently documented this issue, they only list the processes affecting the itineraries and do not document their characteristics. Therefore, the acquired data lack relevance to be spread and for prevention making among climbers. In the present study, on the basis of the processes identified in previous studies in the Mont Blanc massif, we developed a legend in order to map the processes related to climate change that affect the itineraries and modify their climbing parameters. Following the UNIL geomorphological legend and using the same color code, 21 symbols were defined to map 23 processes. In order to evaluate the applicability and interest of the legend proposed, we present a first application in the Valais Alps (Switzerland), based on 21 semi-structured interviews with local Alpine guides and hut keepers. The map then allowed to list the processes affecting each of the 36 itineraries studied. On average, an itinerary is affected by 9 different processes and 25% of the itineraries have greatly evolved, which means their ascent in summer cannot be recommended anymore because of climate change. More generally, this legend would provide a common methodological basis, destined to be completed within future studies and to be relevant beyond the European Alps. This basis would also ease the comparability and compilation of results from different future studies.","PeriodicalId":55112,"journal":{"name":"Geografiska Annaler Series A-Physical Geography","volume":"37 1","pages":"109 - 126"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79930151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper describes an approach for automatic retrieval of daily thin sea ice thickness maps around Svalbard. The algorithm uses thermal satellite imagery from MODIS to estimate the surface temperature of the ice and further uses a thermal model of the ice surface to estimate the thickness of the sea ice. The approach is usable for thin sea ice, up to ca. 50 cm thick, during cold weather (freezing) conditions and without cloud cover present. The algorithm is compared with helicopter-borne electromagnetic ice thickness measurements. The comparison yields increasing root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) for thicker ice. The lowest RMSD found is 8.7 cm for ice thickness in the range 10 cm < hi ≤ 20 cm. The highest RMSD found is 25.2 cm for ice thickness in the range 30 cm < hi ≤ 40 cm. The bias shows no such trend, and the overall bias is found to be −5.5 cm. The results show that this is a promising approach, allowing monitoring of thin sea ice thickness at relatively higher spatial resolution.","PeriodicalId":55112,"journal":{"name":"Geografiska Annaler Series A-Physical Geography","volume":"4 1","pages":"127 - 149"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78530214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study assesses the degree of accuracy with which the TREELIM model predicts present treeline elevation along a regional continentality-maritimity gradient in southwest Norway. The study area consists of 15 sites chosen along this gradient, wherein observed treelines range from nearly sea level to over 1200 m a.s.l. The TREELIM model calculates treeline position based solely on meteorological parameters obtained from gridded climate datasets. The model assumes that tree growth occurs if the length of the growing season (LGS) exceeds a minimum duration and the seasonal mean temperature (SMT) does not fall below a certain value. Six different scenarios were developed in order to determine the effects of changing precipitation and drought within TREELIM. Within these scenarios, three different SMTs were used in order to model the treeline position. Model performance was evaluated by comparing resultant treeline elevation with observed values. Results of experiments using lapse rate-based temperature input data were compared to those using the gridded climate data. Statistical analysis determined that the lapse rate-based temperature scenario removing drought constraints and using a SMT of 6.4°C gave the most accurate prediction of treeline position, and a relatively uniform growing season ranging from 110 to 128 days. Precipitation and snow cover do not significantly affect treeline elevation. The results suggest that TREELIM accurately predicts the treeline in most cases, but is less suited in areas with steeply varying topography.","PeriodicalId":55112,"journal":{"name":"Geografiska Annaler Series A-Physical Geography","volume":"87 1","pages":"90 - 108"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73504094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Forecasts were made using the analogue nonlinear prediction method. A part of paleodata before 1800 (prior to the beginning of anthropogenic impact) was used as an information bank. In all seven cases, the forecast gave either a decrease or a very slight increase in temperature during 1980–2020. Statistical experiments performed with using prediction errors based on a conservative estimation of reconstruction uncertainties showed that a temperature increase of 0.25°C in the specified epoch is not excluded, but its probability is low (P < 0.20). This means that if the climate in the 20th - early 21st century was controlled by the same dynamic system as before 1800, the noticeable warming of the Northern Hemisphere in 1980–2020 should not be observed. Thus, it was shown that the data of modern paleoclimatology confirm that the climate of the Northern Hemisphere in the last 40–50 years was significantly influensed by an additional factor that did not act in the previous 1–2 millennia. It was also shown that if the actual uncertainties are significantly higher than the conservative estimates used, a warming of 0.5 degrees between 1980 and 2020 due to internal climate variability becomes possible.","PeriodicalId":55112,"journal":{"name":"Geografiska Annaler Series A-Physical Geography","volume":"72 1","pages":"288 - 297"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89206348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In eastern Sweden, some roches moutonnées show extensive damage, including open fractures, disintegration into blocks, fracture caves and short boulder trains. Disintegration increases along ice-flow directions during deglaciation of the last Weichselian Fennoscandian Ice Sheet, indicating a subglacial origin: limited edge rounding can be explained by a combination of hard rock, slow abrasion rates and disintegration just prior to deglaciation. The roches moutonnées initially developed in kernels of gneissic rocks with a wide fracture spacing (large block size) and interlocking fracture pattern, and hence high overall rock mass strength. Dilated fractures and ‘fracture caves’ occur up to 15 m below the ice-bed interface. It is proposed that hydraulic jacking by overpressured water opened up the rock mass along pre-existing fractures. Jacking reduced rock mass strength, allowing glaciotectonic deformation of the roches moutonnées. Uneven hydraulic jacking led to uplift of individual fracture-bound blocks above the pre-existing smooth, abraded surface of the roches moutonnées, creating blunt, step-like edges. These edges allowed high ice pushing forces to act on large blocks: where blocks extend into the deeper rock mass, they further aided the disintegration of the rock mass. The disintegrated roches moutonnées can be regarded as transient features between intact bedrock and complete disintegration into boulders. The jacking-disintegration-transport sequence is characteristic of glacial ripping and very different from classic lee-side plucking.","PeriodicalId":55112,"journal":{"name":"Geografiska Annaler Series A-Physical Geography","volume":"1 1","pages":"35 - 56"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88150960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Long-term (1950-2015) temperature and precipitation trends were evaluated using Asian Precipitation Highly Resolved Observational Data Integration Towards Evaluation (APHRODITE) datasets. The mean velocity (1992-2019) of the Miyar Glacier is ∼29 m/yr, with spatial patterns revealing that the debris-covered tongue is nearly stagnant (∼5 m/yr) compared to the debris-free up-glacier zone (∼35 m/yr). The transition zone from clean to debris-covered ice in the mid-ablation area shows the highest long-term mean velocities of ∼60 m/yr during the observation period, likely resulting from a steep surface gradient and greater ice thickness than the other regions of this glacier. The slow-moving and nearly stagnant debris-covered area reveals the highest amount of surface lowering due to the expansion of supraglacial ponds. Miyar Glacier experiences summer speed-up of ∼67–80% in seasonal velocity compared to winter, interpreted as a result from enhanced basal sliding during summer months due to warmer temperatures inputting more meltwater into the subsurface drainage system. Inter-annual velocity variations are greatest in the upper glacier, with higher velocities observed more frequently in recent decades. Future work should aim to elucidate the causes of this pattern, considering the overall rising air temperature trend in the western Himalaya.","PeriodicalId":55112,"journal":{"name":"Geografiska Annaler Series A-Physical Geography","volume":"3 1","pages":"11 - 34"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82417851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
