Hard rocks and deep wetlands beneath Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica is losing ice rapidly and is considered especially vulnerable to retreat, but predictions of its future remain limited by uncertainties about its subglacial properties.

The Antarctic Subglacial Lake Vostok: Glaciology, Biology and Planetology [PDF]

open access: yesEos, 2006
Igor Zotikov has been involved in Antarctic glaciological research since the 1957–1958 third International Polar Year (IPY). His theoretical analyses of ice flow and heat transfer were important early contributions to our present understanding of the Antarctic Ice Sheet.

Summary of Glaciological Studies in Mizuho Plateau (Special Issue of the Proceedings of the First Symposium on Antarctic Meteorology and Glaciology)

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1979
A summary report of the traverse glaciology proiect accomplished by the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition in 1969-1975 was published in 1978 under the title of "Glaciological Studies in Mizuho Plateau, East Antarctica, 1969- 1975" as a special issue

Alpine glacier algal bloom during a record melt year [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Glacier algal blooms dominate the surfaces of glaciers and ice sheets during summer melt seasons, with larger blooms anticipated in years that experience the greatest melt.

A Roadmap for Using Hybridisation Capture-Based Target Enrichment of Ancient Environmental DNA in Palaeoecology. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Recovering ancient DNA from environmental samples is transforming the way we understand historical ecosystems. While high‐throughput sequencing of the total DNA in environmental samples (shotgun metagenomic sequencing) reveals the taxonomic contents of these samples, the genetic signals of some taxa (e.g., eukaryotes) can be weak compared to ...

An updated seabed bathymetry beneath Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data, 2020
In recent decades, rapid ice shelf disintegration along the Antarctic Peninsula has had a global impact through enhancing outlet glacier flow and hence sea level rise and the freshening of Antarctic Bottom Water.

Weathering alteration in the Antarctic environment as seen in the Miller Range (MIL) 090030 Martian meteorite

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2023
The analysis of Martian meteorites is a key research to understand the mineralogical composition of Mars. However, they suffer different types of alteration due to the environment where they fall on Earth.

Steep ice – progress and future challenges in research on ice cliffs

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2022
Ice cliffs are features along ice sheet margins, along tropical mountain glaciers, at termini of mountain glaciers and on debris-covered glacier tongues, that have received scattered attention in literature.

Polarimetric radar reveals the spatial distribution of ice fabric at domes and divides in East Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2022
Ice crystals are mechanically and dielectrically anisotropic. They progressively align under cumulative deformation, forming an ice-crystal-orientation fabric that, in turn, impacts ice deformation.
