Evidence for an ice shelf covering the central Arctic Ocean during the penultimate glaciation
The hypothesis of a km-thick ice shelf covering the entire Arctic Ocean during peak glacial conditions was proposed nearly half a century ago. Floating ice shelves preserve few direct traces after their disappearance, making reconstructions difficult. Seafloor imprints of ice shelves should, however, exist where ice grounded along their flow paths. Here we present new evidence of ice-shelf grou...
متن کاملLuminescence dating of glaciofluvial deposits linked to the penultimate glaciation in the Eastern Alps
During the penultimate glaciation vast areas of the Alps were glaciated, with piedmont glaciers protruding into the foreland. In the easternmost part of the northward draining valleys of the Alps, the glaciers did not reach the foreland, but formed valley glaciers confined by the mountainous terrain. This also applies to the Ybbs valley, where samples for luminescence dating out of glaciofluvia...
متن کاملEvidence of Quaternary climatic variations in a sequence of loess and related deposits at Birch Creek, Alaska: implications for the Stage 5 climatic chronology
A 45 m outcrop of Quaternary sediments on Birch Creek, near Circle, Alaska, reveals a record of #uctuating environmental conditions that probably spans several glacial}interglacial cycles. From base to top the deposits are forested #oodplain (warm), colluvium with ice wedges (cold), forest soil (warm), loess (cold), paleosol containing Old Crow Tephra (OCt) (cool-to-warm), loess (cold), lacustr...
متن کاملBiomarker evidence for photosynthesis during neoproterozoic glaciation.
Laterally extensive black shales were deposited on the São Francisco craton in southeastern Brazil during low-latitude Neoproterozoic glaciation approximately 740 to 700 million years ago. These rocks contain up to 3.0 weight % organic carbon, which we interpret as representing the preserved record of abundant marine primary productivity from glacial times. Extractable biomarkers reflect a comp...
متن کاملthe effect of traffic density on the accident externality from driving the case study of tehran
در این پژوهش به بررسی اثر افزایش ترافیک بر روی تعداد تصادفات پرداخته شده است. به این منظور 30 تقاطع در شهر تهران بطور تصادفی انتخاب گردید و تعداد تصادفات ماهیانه در این تقاطعات در طول سالهای 89-90 از سازمان کنترل ترافیک شهر تهران استخراج گردید و با استفاده از مدل داده های تابلویی و نرم افزار eviews مدل خطی و درجه دوم تخمین زده شد و در نهایت این نتیجه حاصل شد که تقاطعات پر ترافیک تر تعداد تصادفا...
