Abstract A 5.4 m long sediment core was collected from Belbín, a karstic depression dammed by moraine in mid‐altitude environment the Western Massif of Picos de Europa Cantabrian Mountains, northern Spain. 14 C AMS dating basal sediments suggests that maximum glacier advance during last glacial cycle preceded global Last Glacial Maximum and occurred prior to 37.2 ka cal BP. Four environmental stages are reconstructed analysis particular surface microstructures on quartz sand grains: (1)...
Abstract. Accelerating climate change and increased economic environmental interests in permafrost-affected regions have resulted an acute need for more directed permafrost research. In June 2014, 88 early career researchers convened to identify future priorities This multidisciplinary forum concluded that five research topics deserve greatest attention: landscape dynamics, thermal modeling, integration of traditional knowledge, spatial distribution ground ice, engineering issues. These...
Abstract Permafrost occupies 20 million square kilometres of Earth’s high-latitude and high-altitude landscapes. These regions are sensitive to climate change human activities; hence, permafrost research is considerable scientific societal importance. However, the results this generally not known by general public. Communicating concepts an increasingly important task in world. Different ways engage learners incorporate narratives teaching materials exist, yet they underused. Here we report...
This project started in October 2015 with a crazy idea: prepare and submit funding application for an international, multidisciplinary non-traditional scientific outreach project… within the next 48 hours. Well, it worked out. A group of highly motivated young researchers from Canada Europe united to combine arts science produce series comic strips about permafrost (frozen ground). The aim is present explain research conducted across circumpolar Arctic, placing emphasis on field work rapidly...
Abstract A lasting legacy of the International Polar Year (IPY) 2007–2008 was promotion Permafrost Young Researchers Network (PYRN), initially an IPY outreach and education activity by Association (IPA). With momentum IPY, PYRN developed into a thriving network that still connects young permafrost scientists, engineers, researchers from other disciplines. This research note summarises (1) PYRN’s development since 2005 IPY’s role, (2) first 2015 census survey results, (3) future plans to...
Abstract The paper focuses on analysis of macro‐ and micromorphological characteristics relict slope deposits in Serra da Estrela (Portugal) to understand the significance different processes paleoenvironmental settings. Micromorphology is a useful sedimentology technique allowing significant advances compared macroscopic techniques. Results show that are involved development deposits, reflecting environmental conditions. main responsible for emplacement solifluction, debris‐flow runoff, but...

Dieses Projekt startete im Oktober 2015 mit einer verruckten Idee: Schreiben und Einreichen eines Antrags auf Forderung internationalen, multidisziplinaren nicht-traditionell wissenschaftlichen Projektinitiative… innerhalb von 48 Stunden. Und es hat geklappt ! Eine Gruppe hoch motivierter, junger Forscher aus Kanada Europa sich gebildet, um Kunst Wissenschaft zu kombinieren eine Reihe Comics uber Permafrost (gefrorene Boden) produzieren. Unser Ziel ist es, zeigen, wie wissenschaftliches...
