[HTML][HTML] Holocene glacial history of Svalbard: Status, perspectives and challenges
We synthesize the current understanding of glacier activity on Svalbard from the end of the
Late Pleistocene (12,000 yrs. before present) to the end of the Little Ice Age (c. 1920 AD) …

[HTML][HTML] A complete Holocene lake sediment ancient DNA record reveals long-standing high Arctic plant diversity hotspot in northern Svalbard
Arctic hotspots, local areas of high biodiversity, are potential key sites for conservation of
Arctic biodiversity. However, there is a need for improved understanding of their long-term …

[HTML][HTML] Is there evidence for a 4.2 ka BP event in the northern North Atlantic region?
We review paleoceanographic and paleoclimatic records from the northern North Atlantic to
assess the nature of climatic conditions at 4.2 ka BP, which has been identified as a time of …

Hydroclimate variability of High Arctic Svalbard during the Holocene inferred from hydrogen isotopes of leaf waxes
The response of the Arctic hydrologic cycle to global warming includes changes in
precipitation patterns and moisture availability associated with variable sea ice extent and …

Early Holocene temperature oscillations exceed amplitude of observed and projected warming in Svalbard lakes
Arctic climate is uniquely sensitive to ongoing warming. The feedbacks that drive this
amplified response remain insufficiently quantified and misrepresented in model scenarios …

Reconstructing Holocene glacier and climate fluctuations from lake sediments in Vårfluesjøen, Northern Spitsbergen
A process-based understanding of lacustrine deposited sediments in Arctic lakes is
essential to set the present warming and hydroclimatic shift into perspective. From such a …

Holocene precipitation seasonality in northern Svalbard: Influence of sea ice and regional ocean surface conditions
Arctic precipitation is predicted to increase in the coming century, due to a combination of
enhanced northward atmospheric moisture transport and local surface evaporation from ice …

High‐resolution fjord sediment record of a receding glacier with growing intermediate proglacial lake (Steffen Fjord, Chilean Patagonia)
Proglacial lakes are effective sediment traps but their impact on the reliability of downstream
sediment records to reconstruct glacier variability remains unclear. Here, we investigate the …

[HTML][HTML] Glacial history of the Åsgardfonna Ice Cap, NE Spitsbergen, since the last glaciation
The response of glaciers and ice caps to past climate change provides important insight into
how they will react to ongoing and future global warming. In Svalbard, the Holocene glacial …
