Geomorphic response to the lateglacial–holocene transition in high alpine regions (Sanetsch pass, Swiss alps)

Serra, Elena ; Valla, Pierre G. ; Gribenski, Natacha ; Guedes Magrani, Fabio ; Carcaillet, Julien ; Delaloye, Reynald ; Grobéty, Bernard ; Braillard, Luc

In: Boreas, 2020, p. bor.12480

Several palaeoclimatic archives have documented the pronounced climatic and environmental change associated with the Lateglacial–Holocene transition in the European Alps. However, the geomorphic response to this major environmental transition has only been punctually investigated. In this study, we propose a detailed reconstruction of post‐Last Glacial Maximum palaeoenvironmental...

The importance of input data quality and quantity in climate field reconstructions – results from the assimilation of various tree-ring collections

Franke, Jörg ; Valler, Veronika ; Brönnimann, Stefan ; Neukom, Raphael ; Jaume-Santero, Fernando

In: Climate of the Past, 2020, vol. 16, no. 3, p. 1061–1074

Differences between paleoclimatic reconstructions are caused by two factors: the method and the input data. While many studies compare methods, we will focus in this study on the consequences of the input data choice in a state-of-the-art Kalman- filter paleoclimate data assimilation approach. We evaluate reconstruction quality in the 20th century based on three collections of tree-ring...

Tectonics controls on fluvial landscapes and drainage development in the westernmost part of Switzerland: Insights from DEM-derived geomorphic indices

Radaideh, Omar M. A. ; Mosar, Jon

In: Tectonophysics, 2019, vol. 768, p. 228179

This work focuses particularly on the geomorphological evidence for the tectonic controls on the development of the present-day fluvial landscapes in the westernmost part of Switzerland. The tectonic deformation was evaluated on the basis of a combined analysis of several classical geomorphic indices (hypsometric curves and integrals, transverse topographic symmetry index, and channel's...
