Antarctic glacial chronology : new constraints from surface exposure dating
… to provide new constraints to Antarctic glacial chronology. The results are used to reconstruct past West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) geometry and test models of WAIS behavior. Mount Waesche is a volcanic nunatak near the dome of the WAIS in Marie Byrd Land. The Dominion Range is at the head of …

Varve Chronology, Proxy Calibration, and Holocene Climate of Minnesota
Despite the numerous Holocene paleoclimatic records from the North American continent, few existing records from the American Midwest have adequate chronological controls, marking it problematic to link regional climatic changes to possible larger-scale forcing. With solid 14C chronologies, the …

Environmental Factors Influencing Spring Migration Chronology of Lesser Scaup (Aythya affinis)
… habitat availability for waterfowl. Migration chronology of lesser scaup and mallards differed suggesting surveys designed for mallard migration may be biased for scaup. My thesis provides insight into how environmental factors and annual variation in weather influences scaup migration …

A 7000 yr runoff chronology from varved sediments of Lake Mondsee (Upper Austria)
… in the Northeast Alps. The 7000-year flood chronology reveals 47 debris flows and 269 floods, with increased flood activity shifting around 3500 and 1500 varve yr BP (varve yr BP = varve years before present, before present = AD 1950). This significant increase in flood activity shows a …
