Quantifying landslide strain localization phenomena using tensor analysis of multi-temporal lidar dataNARA Subscribed
A fundamental understanding of landslide evolution requires characterizing how deformation localizes within the sliding mass, as these non-homogeneous zones provide crucial insights into how destabilization initiates, failure surfaces develop, and the overall kinematic behavior evolves. While traditional analysis often assumes uniform movement, this study presents a methodology to quantify intricate patterns of surface deforma...
Timing of glacial retreat in the Wicklow Mountains, Ireland, conditioned by glacier size and topographyNARA Subscribed
Reconstructing the deglacial history of palaeo‐glaciers provides vital information on retreat processes, information which can inform predictions of the future behaviour of many of the world's glaciers. On this basis, this paper presents 170 Schmidt Hammer exposure ages from moraine boulders and glacially sculpted bedrock to reveal the post‐Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) history of the Wicklow Mountains, Ireland. These data sugges...
Here, we present evidence to suggest that the Mourne Mountains, Northern Ireland, were last occupied by glaciers during the Younger Dryas Stadial. The margins of these glaciers are marked by moraines, chronologically constrained to the Younger Dryas by Schmidt hammer exposure dating. Reconstructions indicate that these glaciers had equilibrium‐line altitudes (ELAs) ranging from 356 ± 33 m (a.s.l.) to 570 ± 9 m (a.s.l.), with a...
Beryllium‐10 surface exposure dating of glacial successions in the Central Alaska RangeNARA Subscribed
Glacial landforms and outwash terraces in the Nenana River valley, Reindeer Hills and Monahan Flat in the central Alaska Range were dated with 60 10 Be exposure ages to determine the timing of Late Pleistocene glaciation. In the Nenana River valley, glaciation occurred at 104–180 ka (Lignite Creek glaciation), ca. 55 ka (Healy glaciation), and ca. 16 ka (Carlo Creek phase); glaciers retreated in the Reindeer Hills and Monahan...
