This paper provides a new deglacial chronology for retreat of the Irish Ice Sheet from the continental shelf of western Ireland to the adjoining coastline, a region where the timing and drivers of ice recession have never been fully constrained. Prev... Read More about The deglaciation of the western sector of the Irish Ice Sheet from the inner continental shelf to its terrestrial margin.

Final deglaciation of the Malin Sea through meltwater release and calving events (2020)
Journal Article
Tarlati, S., Benetti, S., Callard, S., Ó Cofaigh, C., Dunlop, P., Georgiopoulou, A., …Clark, C. (2020). Final deglaciation of the Malin Sea through meltwater release and calving events. Scottish Journal of Geology, 56(2), 117-133. https://doi.org/10.1144/sjg2019-010

During the last glacial maximum, the British–Irish Ice Sheet (BIIS) extended to the shelf edge in the Malin Sea between Ireland and Scotland, delivering sediments to the Donegal Barra Fan (DBF). Analysis of well-preserved, glacially derived sediment... Read More about Final deglaciation of the Malin Sea through meltwater release and calving events.
