Overview

Sarah L. Greenwood is affiliated with Stockholm University in Sweden and focuses primarily on research within Earth and Planetary Sciences. Their work spans multiple subfields, including Atmospheric Science, Earth-Surface Processes, Anthropology, Management, Monitoring, Policy and Law, and Pulmonary and Respiratory Medicine. The research addresses an array of scientific topics such as Geology and Paleoclimatology Research, Cryospheric Studies and Observations, Pleistocene-Era Hominins and Archaeology, Geological Formations and Processes, Landslides and Related Hazards, Winter Sports Injuries and Performance, and Climate Change and Permafrost.

Greenwood has contributed to several research papers with notable publication venues including Quaternary Science Reviews, Boreas, Science Advances, Geophysical Research Letters, and Annals of Glaciology.

  • Exceptions to bed-controlled ice sheet flow and retreat from glaciated continental margins worldwide (2021, Science Advances)
  • Topographic Controls on Channelized Meltwater in the Subglacial Environment (2021, Geophysical Research Letters)
  • Ice-dammed lakes and deglaciation history of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet in central Jämtland, Sweden (2023, Quaternary Science Reviews)
  • Advances in understanding subglacial meltwater drainage from past ice sheets (2022, Annals of Glaciology)
  • A 725-year integrated offshore terrestrial varve chronology for southeastern Sweden suggests rapid ice retreat ~15 ka BP (2020, Boreas)

The scientist frequently collaborates with peers across various projects. Their primary co-authors include Anna L.C. Hughes, Monica Winsborrow, Carl Regnéll, Richard Gyllencreutz, and Rachael S. Avery. These collaborations are reflected in co-authorship counts ranging from five to fifteen joint publications.

Publication activity reveals a concentration in certain journals, with multiple articles appearing in Quaternary Science Reviews and Boreas, among others. The diversity in venues illustrates a range of interests particularly related to glaciology, paleoclimatology, and Earth surface processes.
