A meta-analysis of Holocene fluvial activity in the Southeastern U.S.

Lombardi, Rachel (University of Alabama Libraries, 2017)

Flood hazard is a reality in the Southeastern U.S., which is exacerbated by the high uncertainty of flood hazard as a result of short, discontinuous stream gauge records. Extreme flood events captured in the instrumental ...
Cave air C O_2 and drip-water geochemical variability at Desoto Caverns: implications for speleothem-based paleoclimate studies

Dhungana, Rajesh (University of Alabama Libraries, 2017)

This study has addresses the question whether speleothems from DeSoto Caverns (Childersburg, AL) can be used as paleoclimate archives for the Southeast USA. The monitoring program encompassed determination of cave air CO2, ...
Clams and climate: implications for measuring seasonality in the marine bivalve, saxidomus gigantea

Bassett, Christine Nicole (University of Alabama Libraries, 2016)

Sclerochronological and sclerochemical analysis of shellfish remains from archaeological sites afford the opportunity to understand environmental change and its impacts on human populations through time. During the Late ...
Floods and nutrients in Weeks Bay, AL: an evaluation of long-term environmental change and human impacts on coastal estuaries

Parker, Lauren Elizabeth (University of Alabama Libraries, 2019)

Climate change and sea level rise are major concerns for coastal environments, with predicted increased storm intensity, coastal erosion, and ecological degradation. Long paleoenvironmental records can advance our understanding ...
Hydroclimate time-series archived in a 4300 year old stalagmite from Desoto Caverns (Alabama, USA)

Aldridge, David Edward (University of Alabama Libraries, 2014)

Recently published climate studies have implicated the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) as the dominant factor modulating the precipitation in the regions adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico but ...
Oceanographic and climatic influences on Trooz Glacier and Collins Bay, Antarctic Peninsula, during the Holocene

Fonseca, Adlai Nathanael Reuel (University of Alabama Libraries, 2019)

The Antarctic Peninsula (AP) has dramatically warmed with the majority of its outlet glaciers receeding since the 1970’s. Relatively warm Circumpolar Deepwater (CDW) that undermelts ice shelves is prevalent on the western ...
Secondary ion mass spectrometer geochemical analysis of secondary infilled areas in stylaster erubescens;

Cobb, Robin Michele (University of Alabama Libraries, 2014)

Paleoceanographers utilize geochemical proxies, such as oxygen isotopic ratios (δ;18;O), that are recorded in coral colonies to reconstruct past ocean conditions. Massive hermatypic corals precipitate skeletal aragonite ...
Using the growth patterns and geochemistry of coralline red algae to develop proxies for paleoclimate reconstruction in tropical and subarctic environments

Sletten, Hillary Rae (University of Alabama Libraries, 2016)

The purpose of this research is to further develop the use of encrusting and free-living forms (i.e. rhodoliths) of crustose coralline red algae (CCA) as geochemical proxy sources for paleoenvironmental and paleoclimate ...
δ¹⁵N as a potential proxy for anthropogenic nitrogen loading in Charleston harbor, South Carolina

Payne, Taylor Norris (University of Alabama Libraries, 2016)

Bivalve shell geochemistry can serve as a useful indicator of changes in coastal environments. There is increasing interest in developing paleoenvironmental proxies from mollusk shell organic components. Numerous studies ...
