Open AccessMeltwater sediment transport as the dominating process in mid-latitude trough mouth fan formation
Trough mouth fans comprise the largest sediment deposits along glaciated margins, and record Pleistocene climate changes on a multi-decadal time scale. Here we present a model for the formation of the North Se...

Open AccessAuthor Correction: Glacigenic sedimentation pulses triggered post-glacial gas hydrate dissociation
The original version of this Article contained an error in the second sentence of the Abstract, which incorrectly read ‘They are stable under high pressure and low, but react sensitively to environmental chang...

Open AccessGlacigenic sedimentation pulses triggered post-glacial gas hydrate dissociation
Large amounts of methane are stored in continental margins as gas hydrates. They are stable under high pressure and low temperature, but react sensitively to environmental changes. Bottom water temperature and...

Open AccessConstraining shifts in North Atlantic plate motions during the Palaeocene by U-Pb dating of Svalbard tephra layers
Radioisotopic dating of volcanic minerals is a powerful method for establishing absolute time constraints in sedimentary basins, which improves our understanding of the chronostratigraphy and evolution of basi...

Release of methane from a volcanic basin as a mechanism for initial Eocene global warming
A 200,000-yr interval of extreme global warming marked the start of the Eocene epoch about 55 million years ago. Negative carbon- and oxygen-isotope excursions in marine and terrestrial sediments show that thi...
