Late Quaternary environmental changes recorded in the Danish marine molluscan faunas
Description: Late Quaternary marine deposits in Denmark have yielded 247 subfossil species of molluscs. The sites are presented and comparisons are made between the subfossil mollusc assemblages and the 278 shell-bearing mollusc species presently living in the Danish seas. 184 species are common to the two groups. The 63 species no longer occurring around Denmark are used as indicators of changing environmental conditions including temperature salinity and depth throughout the last 120000 years GEUS

Vol. 3, Bulletin
Description: The main result of this work was the comparison between the fossil faunas and the mollusc faunas now living before our eyes using the C.G.J. Petersen bottom community concept step by step in the seven stages from the Eemian to the Subatlantic within the seven regions in the Danish realm. It appears that the differences in facies made the difference between the regions and that the more temperate Eemian marine fauna was only connected with the shallow water environment. The climatic changes recorded in the mollusc fauna have given a clear record as far as the main trends are concerned - the interglacial/glacial cycle however the climatic changes during the Holocene were small.

Molluscs
Description: Welcome to mollusc research at the Department of Quaternary geology. The molluscs are one of the most diverse and largest of all the phyla of the animal kingdom. They are found in most of the earth's environments from the deepest ocean abysses to the dry deserts. Molluscs vary from slow shelled Pelecypods to the quick fleshy squids GEUS

Did American Clams Sail to Europe on Viking Ships
Description: That American seafood favourite the soft-shell clam provides new support for the idea that the Vikings reached America before Columbus. Last spring on a beach off northern Denmark scientists found shells of Mya arenaria carbon-dated as early as 1245 GEUS

Characterizing the Sediments from the last Drainage Event of the Baltic Ice Lake
Description: We have characterized the sedimentary outpour from the final drainage of the Baltic Ice Lake. The characterization was done by a newly developed method which consist of measuring two material parameters of the sediment: the magnetic susceptibility and the thermoluminescence sensitivity GEUS

Vol.1 Map Series
Description: Explanatory notes to the Geological map of Greenland 1:500 000 Humboldt Gletscher Sheet 6 - The Humboldt Gletscher map sheet predominantly displays Precambrian Palaeozoic and Quaternary units and expanses of ice. Minor clastic rocks and wood erratics are of Neogene age. Three bedrock provinces are preserved: the Palaeoproterozoic shield or Inglefield mobile belt the Mesoproterozoic Thule Basin and the Lower Palaeozoic Franklinian Basin. These explanatory notes are designed as an expanded map legend and introduced by sections on physical environment and geoscientific research with 150 papers cited. The notes are aimed at the practical user needing a key to more information rather than the specialist seeking detailed analysis. Five mineral occurrence types are shown on the map: in shield lithologies sulphide-graphite gossanous rust zones massive magnetite and copper-gold mineralisation and in Franklinian Basin strata commercially drilled zinc-lead-silver and zinc-lead-barium mineralisations.
