Obliquity Pacing of the Late Pleistocene Glacial Terminations

The Mid - Infrared [ S iv ] / [ Ne ii ] versus [ Ne iii ] / [ Ne ii ] Correlation

The mid-infrared ratio [Ne iii]15.6μm/[Ne ii]12.8μm is a strong diagnostic of the ionization state of emission line objects, due to its use of only strong neon emission lines only weakly affected by extinction. However this ratio is not available to ground-based telescopes as only a few spectroscopic windows are available in the MIR. To deal with this problem we aimed to verify if there exists ...

Prospects in Balneology to Boost the Economy and Employment of Rural NE Iceland

In NE Iceland there are ample geothermal resources both high temperature and low temperature geothermal fields as well as boiling low-temperature or medium enthalpy resources. It is of utmost importance not to waste the energy even where the resources are ample and cascade use of the energy is desirable. Many of the high-temperature fields in the area are now being harnessed for electricity pro...

The Kamikatsura event and the Matuyama-Brunhes reversal recorded in lavas from Tjörnes Peninsula, northern Iceland

We report paleomagnetic results from four overlapping stratigraphic sections (55 flows) through the lava pile in Tjörnes peninsula (North Iceland). The initial aim of our study was to check the existence of intermediate directions previously interpreted as belonging to the Matuyama-Brunhes geomagnetic reversal (MBR), and complete this record with ThellierThellier paleointensity determinations a...
