Proglacial lake records of recent environmental change in Glacier National Park, Montana, USA
We examined trends in sediment deposition, organic carbon sourcing, and carbon and nitrogen isotopes in a transect of four lake sediment cores from eastern Glacier National Park (GNP), Montana, USA to understand how a connected chain of subalpine lakes downvalley from a retreating Grinnell Glacier have responded to environmental change over the last two centuries. Based on 210 Pb ages, all three lakes showed a two- to five-fold increase in mass a…
Lake core record of Grinnell Glacier dynamics during the latest Pleistocene deglaciation and the Younger Dryas, Glacier National Park, Montana, USA
Few records in the alpine landscape of western North America document the geomorphic and glaciologic response to climate change during the Pleistocene–Holocene transition. While moraines can provide snapshots of glacier extent, high-resolution records of environmental response to the end of the Last Glacial Maximum, Younger Dryas cooling, and subsequent warming into the stable Holocene are rare. We describe the transition from the late Pleistocen…
Geomorphic and climatic change over the past 12,900 yr at Swiftcurrent Lake, Glacier National Park, Montana, USA
Glaciated alpine landscapes are sensitive to changes in climate. Shifts in temperature and precipitation can cause significant changes to glacier size and terminus position, the production and delivery of organic mass, and in the hydrologic energy related to the transport of water and sediment through proglacial environments. A sediment core representing a 12,900-yr record collected from Swiftcurrent Lake, located on the eastern side of Glacier N…
