Rise and fall of the dust shell of the classical nova V339 Delphini (2017)
Journal Article

We present infrared spectroscopy of the classical nova V339 Delphini, obtained over a $\sim2$ year period. The infrared emission lines were initially symmetrical, with HWHM velocities of 525 km s$^{-1}$. In later ($t\gtrsim77$days, where $t$ is the t...

New age constraints for the limit of the British–Irish Ice Sheet on the Isles of Scilly (2017)
Journal Article

The southernmost terrestrial extent of the Irish Sea Ice Stream (ISIS), which drained a large proportion of the last British–Irish Ice Sheet, impinged on to the Isles of Scilly during Marine Isotope Stage 2. However, the age of this ice limit has bee... Read More about New age constraints for the limit of the British–Irish Ice Sheet on the Isles of Scilly.

Devising quality assurance procedures for assessment of legacy geochronological data relating to deglaciation of the last British-Irish Ice Sheet (2017)
Journal Article

This contribution documents the process of assessing the quality of data within a compilation of legacy geochronological data relating to the last British-Irish Ice Sheet, a task undertaken as part of a larger community-based project (BRITICE-CHRONO)...

Antarctic ice sheet discharge driven by atmosphere-ocean feedbacks at the Last Glacial Termination. (2017)
Journal Article

Reconstructing the dynamic response of the Antarctic ice sheets to warming during the Last Glacial Termination (LGT; 18,000-11,650 yrs ago) allows us to disentangle ice-climate feedbacks that are key to improving future projections. Whilst the sequen... Read More about Antarctic ice sheet discharge driven by atmosphere-ocean feedbacks at the Last Glacial Termination..

DUSTiNGS III: Distribution of Intermediate-Age and Old Stellar Populations in Disks and Outer Extremities of Dwarf Galaxies (2017)
Journal Article

We have traced the spatial distributions of intermediate-age and old stars in nine dwarf galaxies in the distant parts of the Local Group, using multi-epoch 3.6 and 4.5 µm data from the DUST in Nearby Galaxies with Spitzer (DUSTiNGS) survey. Using co... Read More about DUSTiNGS III: Distribution of Intermediate-Age and Old Stellar Populations in Disks and Outer Extremities of Dwarf Galaxies.

Comment on Maravelis et al. “Accretionary prism-forearc interactions as reflected in the sedimentary fill of southern Thrace Basin (Lemnos Island, NE Greece)” (2017)
Journal Article

This contribution is intended to shed light on the content of the paper by Maravelis et al. (2015) about the evolution of the island of Limnos, a small portion of the Cenozoic Thrace Basin (Turkey, Greece and Bulgaria). Although we appreciate their a...

Rossiter-McLaughlin models and their effect on estimates of stellar rotation, illustrated using six WASP systems (2017)
Journal Article

We present new measurements of the projected spin-orbit angle ? for six WASP hot Jupiters, four of which are new to the literature (WASP-61, -62, -76, and -78), and two of which are new analyses of previously measured systems using new data (WASP-71,...

Early Paleozoic tectonic reconstruction of Iran: Tales from detrital zircon geochronology (2017)
Journal Article

In this study we use detrital zircons to probe the Early Paleozoic history of NE Iran and evaluate the link between sediment sources and Gondwanan pre-Cadomian, Cadomian and younger events. U–Pb zircon ages and Hf isotopic compositions are reported f... Read More about Early Paleozoic tectonic reconstruction of Iran: Tales from detrital zircon geochronology.

Delayed maximum northern European summer temperatures during the Last Interglacial as a result of Greenland Ice Sheet melt (2017)
Journal Article

Here we report a new quantitative mean July temperature reconstruction using non-biting midges (chironomids) from the Danish Last Interglacial (LIG) site Hollerup (spanning 127–116 ka). We find that peak mean July temperatures of 17.5 °C, similar to...
