  1. 1. Loess as an Environmental Proxy for Reconstruction of Palaeoclimate in the High Arctic

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Sara Rognås; [2023]
    Nyckelord :aeolian transport; loess; grain size analysis; loss on ignition; palaeoclimate; Svalbard; Holocene; vindtransporterat material; lössjord; kornstorlek; loss on ignition; paleoklimat; Svalbard; Holocen;

    Sammanfattning : We are currently speeding towards significant changes in the climate of the earth which, if ignored, will lead to severely altered climatic conditions with serious consequences for several species and ecosystems. The polar regions especially are very sensitive to climate changes, and the changes these regions undergo affect the climate on a global scale. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Reconstructing Past Climate by Using XRF and Loss of Ignition on Loess from Adventdalen, Svalbard : Rekonstruktion av tidigare klimat genom attanvända XRF analys och antändningsförlust på lössavlagringar från Adventdalen, Svalbard

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Albin Andreasson; Noa Lind; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Svalbard; loess soil; XRF; weathering; climate change;

    Sammanfattning : By analyzing the texture, composition and chemical composition of loess soils, the reconstruction ofpast climate regimes is enabled, which can improve our understanding of current and future climatechange. Properties such as grain size and composition, mineralogy, organic matter and chemicalcomposition can provide information about which environmental factors were present during thedeposition of the sediment, which can lead to a detailed picture of the climate history of a site.

  3. 3. Reconstructing Past Climate by Grain Size and Magnetic Susceptibility Analysis of Belgium Loess From the Late Quaternary

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Susanna Åberg; [2022]
    Nyckelord :aeolian dust; Romont; Europe; true loess line; past climate reconstruction; vindtransporterat stoft; Romont; Europa; true loess line; rekonstruktion av tidigare klimat;

    Sammanfattning : Aeolian dust that gets deposited builds up loess sequences that cover 10% of the Earth's continents. Such sequences can be several metres thick with material deposited over thousands of years, and therefore act like archives of past climates. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Elemental variability in tree-rings as indicator for climate change : a case study on beech and oak trees at the Laacher See, Germany

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Författare :Ann-Kathrin Wild; [2022]
    Nyckelord :trace elements; tree-rings; dendrochemistry; dendroclimatology; ITRAX; Laacher See; mofettes; tree-bark; Quercus sp.; Fagus sp.;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study was to contribute to the comprehension of the connection of element uptake in trees at the Laacher See in Germany and climatic parameters on different time scales. Understanding the relationship of certain elements in trees and temperature might enable the assignment of extraordinary high peaks in the elemental concentration, which cannot be explained by temperature, to another process as CO2 degassing of the mofettes, which are relics of the volcanic past of the lake.

  5. 5. Late Quaternary Climate Reconstruction Using Rock - Magnetism in Loess on Portelet, Jersey

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Elias Hero; [2022]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Loess is a very fine aeolian sediment that can be used as a proxy for stadial and interstadial glacialperiods. To understand how Earth’s climate have changed and what effects that change have had on theplanet and life on it we can use climate archives. LÄS MER
