In October 2024, a joint field campaign was carried out along the coastal zone of Naxos Island, in the Cyclades, Greece — a collaborative effort between the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA) and the University of Bucharest (UB) teams. The focus of the research was the Glyfada site, a stunning coastal landscape that

A recent field campaign in the Retezat Mountains focused on determining whether the region’s rock glaciers are still active, a crucial indicator in the context of climate change. Rock glaciers are valuable climate archives, as their movement is directly linked to the presence of permafrost, which is one of the Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) monitored

As part of the ongoing TRACE project activities, a field campaign was conducted to investigate the landscapes surrounding Lake Tașaul, located on the Casimcea Plateau in Romania. The primary objective was to verify the presence of presumed marine terraces, as suggested by earlier studies. These geomorphological features are valuable paleoindicators of past sea-level changes and
