Reconstruction of glacier variability from lake sediments reveals dynamic Holocene climate in Svalbard
Abstract The Arctic is warming faster than anywhere else on Earth. Holocene proxy time-series are increasingly used to put this amplified response in perspective by understanding Arctic climate processes beyond the instrumental period. However,...

Multi-proxy dating the ‘Millennium Eruption’ of Changbaishan to late 946 CE
Abstract Ranking among the largest volcanic eruptions of the Common Era (CE), the ‘Millennium Eruption’ of Changbaishan produced a widely-dispersed tephra layer (known as the B-Tm ash), which represents an important tie point for palaeoenvironmental ...

Understanding coastal change using shoreline trend analysis supported by cluster-based segmentation
Abstract Shoreline change analysis is a well defined and widely adopted approach for the examination of trends in coastal position over different timescales. Conventional shoreline change metrics are best suited to resolving progressive quasi-linear ...

Paleomagnetic evidence for dynamo activity driven by inward crystallisation of a metallic asteroid
Abstract The direction in which a planetary core solidifies has fundamental implications for the feasibility and nature of dynamo generation. Although Earth's core is outwardly solidifying, the cores of certain smaller planetary bodies have been...
