  1. 1. Marine Geology and Holocene Paleoceanographyof the Southern Quark, Baltic Sea

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för geologiska vetenskaper

    Author : Anton Wagner; [2022]
    Keywords : Bottom currents; Sortable silt; Radiocarbon dating; Baltic Sea stages; Estuarine circulation; Marine sediment cores; Marine geophysical mapping;

    Abstract : The Understen-Märket trench is located in the Southern Quark and is the only deep-water connection between the Baltic Propper and the Gulf of Bothnia. Bathymetric mapping reveals a number of eroded channels and drift deposits exists on the seafloor, indicating that the area is heavily affected by current activity. READ MORE

  4. 3. Mapping Future Canadian Arctic Coastlines

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Pia Blake; [2021]
    Keywords : Isostatic Rebound; Canadian Arctic; Climate Change; RCP scenarios; Coastlines; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The Canadian Arctic currently faces changing coastlines due isostatic rebound and climate change-driven sea-levels rising. This thesis seeks to answer how local coastlines will change over time under different Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) scenarios, where errors in modelled coastlines come from, and how much of an impact isostatic rebound has on sea-levels compared to climate-change driven changes.

  5. 4. Holocene lake-level changes in the Siljan Lake District – Towards validation of von Post’s drainage scenario

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Savvas Paradeisis-Stathis; [2020]
    Keywords : Lake Siljan; Dalarna; basin isolation; catastrophic drainage; early Holocene; lake sediments; XRF scanning; C N ratio; magnetic susceptibility; pollen; Ancylus Lake; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The Dalarna province in south-central Sweden shows a great variety of geological evidence from the Late Quaternary. A peculiar deglaciation pattern, along with unique hydrological conditions, has left a lot of space for speculations over the palaeoenvironmental conditions during the early Holocene. READ MORE

  6. 5. A sedimentological study of Cryogenian glacial-interglacial cycles recorded by the Port Askaig Tillite Formation on Islay, Scotland

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för geologiska vetenskaper

    Author : Martin Dahlgren; [2018]
    Keywords : Cryogenian; Islay; Snowball Earth; Tillite;

    Abstract : An interglacial mudstone sequence from the Port Askaig Tillite Formation on Islay was analysed using an Olympus XRF detector. The resulting geochemical log was compared with an XRF dataset acquired from a Quaternary sedimentary core from the Lomonosov Ridge in the Arctic Ocean. READ MORE
