Early Holocene occurrence of loess in Folldal, east-central southern Norway
Identified for the first time in Norway, windblown yellowish-brown dust in Folldal, east-central southern Norway, fulfils physical and geochemical criteria for sensu stricto loess, including a high carbonate content. Two extant and one relict marl pond located on low-carbonate rocks are investigated. An allochthonous origin for the marl ponds is suggested and explained by the deposition of suspended clastic carbonate as loess by aeolian processes…
Intensified Late-Holocene aeolian activity in Vesterålen, northern Norway – increased storminess or human impact
This study reconstructs Mid- to Late-Holocene aeolian activity based on lacustrine sediments from a small pond, Nøkktjønna, situated ~1.5 km northeast from the coast, and stratigraphical investigations of coastal dunes at Fjærvoll, Langøya in Vesterålen, northern Norway. Several methods have been used to reconstruct catchment processes from the lacustrine record, including analyses of lithostratigraphy, organic content, magnetic susceptibility, a…
An inverse approach to the course of the ‘Little Ice Age’ glacier advance and the following deglaciation at Austerdalsisen, eastern Svartisen, northern Norway
The course of the ‘Little Ice Age’ (LIA) in Scandinavia is characterized by large glacier advances that started at about AD 1300 and culminated at about AD 1750. The end of the LIA is marked as an unprecedented and ongoing glacier retreat that accelerated from the early 20th century. The course of the LIA is here presented based on fluctuations of Austerdalsisen, the largest valley outlet glacier draining the Austre Svartisen (Østisen) ice cap, N…
Mid- to late Holocene aeolian activity recorded in a coastal dunefield and lacustrine sediments on Andøya, northern Norway
In an effort to reconstruct past aeolian activity, a foredune stratigraphy and a continuous lake sediment record from the largest dunefield on Andøya, northern Norway, have been investigated. The dunefield extends landwards in a north-eastward direction and consists of several parabolic dunes, foredunes and blowouts. The sediment record (169 cm) from the nearby lake Latjønna and the foredune stratigraphy (10 m) covers the last 6200 and 3700 cal. …
A high-resolution 1200-year lacustrine record of glacier and climate fluctuations in Lofoten, northern Norway
Here we present the first high-resolution late-Holocene glacier record from the Lofoten archipelago in northern Norway. The study is based on analyses of lacustrine sediments from the distal glacier-fed lake Kveitvikvatnet (30.1 m a.s.l.), as well as glacial-geomorphological mapping of the ~4.2-km 2 surrounding catchment. The lake sediment cores have been examined for input of glacial-derived sediments by using physical, geochemical and magnetic …
Holocene glacier and climate fluctuations of the maritime ice cap Høgtuvbreen, northern Norway
Holocene fluctuations of a small outlet glacier from the ice cap Høgtuvbreen at 65° N in coastal northern Norway are reconstructed based on distal glacier-fed lake sediments, complemented by a moraine sequence dated by lichenometry. Glaciers respond to changes in accumulation-season precipitation, ablation-season temperature and redistribution of snow by wind. Hence, reconstructions of glacier fluctuations based on distal glacier-fed lakes may gi…
