“…The measurements are described in detail by Maden et al (2007), Freeman et al (2007), Schnabel et al (2007), and Xu et al (2010 ). To make all subsequent calculations consistent with the updated 10 Be half-life of 1.387 ± 0.012 Myr (Chmeleff et al, 2010;Korschinek et al, 2010), the 10 Be data were re-normalised to the 2007 KNSTD standard .…”

Based on cosmogenic 10 Be and , and an associated mean denudation rate of 9.6 ± 1.1 m.Myr originating from all quartz-bearing rocks in all parts of the catchment. Thus, the cosmogenic nuclide inventories of these sands record the overall average lowering rate of the landscape. The pebbles originate from quartz vein outcrops throughout the catchment, and the episodic erosion of the latter means that the pebbles will have higher nuclide inventories than the surrounding bedrock and soil, and therefore also higher than the amalgamated sand grains. The order-of-magnitude grain size bias observed in the Gaub has important implications for using cosmogenic nuclide abundances in depositional surfaces because in arid environments, akin to our study catchment, pebble-sized clasts yield substantially underestimated palaeo-denudation rates. Our results highlight the importance of carefully considering geomorphology and grain size when interpreting cosmogenic nuclide data in depositional surfaces.

AbstractThe Uummannaq ice stream system (UISS) was a convergent cross-shelf ice stream system that operated in West Greenland during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). This paper presents new evidence constraining the geometry and evolution of the northern sector of the UISS and considers the factors controlling its dynamic behaviour. Geomorphological mapping, 21 new terrestrial cosmogenic nuclide (TCN) exposure ages, and radiocarbon dating constrain LGM warm-based ice stream activity in the north of the system up to 1400 m a.s.l. Intervening plateaux areas either remained ice free, or were covered by cold-based icefields. Beyond the inner fjords, topography and bathymetry forced ice flow southwards into the Uummannaq Trough, where it coalesced with ice from the south, and formed the trunk zone of the UISS.Deglaciation of the UISS began at 14.9 cal. kyr BP. Rapid retreat from the LGM limit was forced by an increase in air temperatures and rising sea level, enhanced by the bathymetric over- Greenland, which suggest ice had retreated beyond its present margin by 9-7 kyr. This demonstrates the potential importance of topographic control on calving margin stability, and its ability to override climatic forcing.
