1. Implications of a rapidly thinning ice-margin for annual moraine formation at Gornergletscher, Switzerland
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionenSammanfattning : This study examines genetic processes and climatological significance of annual moraine formation in the foreland of Gornergletscher, a large alpine-valley glacier located in the southern Swiss Alps. A particular focus is set on moraine ridges that have been forming between 2007 and 2019, a period when the glacier has been subject to accelerated retreat and pronounced frontal thinning. LÄS MER
2. A pre-LGM sandur deposit at Fiskarheden, NW Dalarna : sedimentology and glaciotectonic deformation
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionenSammanfattning : The Fiskarheden quarry, situated in NW Dalarna, central Sweden, reveal thick deposits of coarse-grained sediments of Scott type facies association; a sandur deposited in an ice-proximal proglacial environment. Preliminary OSL dating of the sandur sediments suggest that they are of a pre-Saalian age (>200 000 years). LÄS MER
3. Proglacial deformation of glaciofluvial sediments during the Pomeranian deglaciation in the Neubrandenburg area, NE Germany
Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionenSammanfattning : Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Genom att undersöka tre grustag i nordöstra Tyskland, Kreuzbruchhof, Fritscheshof och Spargelberg har jag försökt rekonstruera hur isen såg ut vid istidens slutfas. Syftet var att rekonstruera den senaste glaciala aktiviteten. LÄS MER
4. A sedimentological study of glacial deposits in the upper Sjællandselv area, Jameson Land, East Greenland
Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionenSammanfattning : Summary: The fieldwork preceding this Master degree thesis took place in Jameson Land, East Greeniand, within the frame of the PONAM (Polar North Atlantic Margins; Late Cenozoic evolution) project. In central Jameson Land, a plateau area at approximately 500 m.a.s. LÄS MER
