Reconstruction of mass balance and firn stratigraphy during the 1996–2011 warm period at high altitude on Mount Ortles, Eastern Alps: a comparison of modelled and ice core results Open
Paleoclimatic glacial archives in low-latitude mountain regions are increasingly affected by melt, which leads to heavy percolation and can remove snow and firn accumulated across months, seasons, or even years. Proxy system models, used f…

A multimillennial Alpine ice core chronology synchronized with an accurately dated Arctic Pb record Open
A low latitude-high altitude Alpine ice core record was obtained in 2011 from the glacier Alto dell'Ortles (3859 m, Eastern Alps, Italy). A preliminary absolute timescale (TC2016) based on a peak in 3H activity, and 210Pb and 14C dating of…

New chemical signatures and 39Ar dating from Weißseespitze ice cores (Eastern Alps): Tracing anthropogenic pollution from the Late Medieval to Early Modern Period  Open
High-altitude glaciers in the western European Alps have preserved long-term records of anthropogenic air pollution, as shown by numerous ice core studies over the past three decades. These records reveal a significant increase in pollutan…

Rapid vegetation responses over the last seven decades revealed by an alpine ice core and land-cover patterns Open
Context Syntheses of vegetation responses over the last century are rare for the Alps, and limited in chronological and taxonomical resolution. We propose that pollen records from glaciers can be used to fill this gap. Objectives Our aim i…
