Characteristics of ice rises and ice rumples in Dronning Maud Land and Enderby Land, Antarctica

Journal of Glaciology, 2020
Ice rises and rumples, locally grounded features adjacent to ice shelves, are relatively small yet play significant roles in Antarctic ice dynamics. Their roles generally depend upon their location within the ice shelf and the stage of the ice-sheet ...

Thorncliffe Formation: A proglacial to subglacial lacustrine basin sequence, Greater Toronto Region, Canada

Boreas, EarlyView.
Map of Lower sediment (LS) thickness is a surrogate for the distribution of Thorncliffe Formation (TF) and ~75% of TF thickness from the slope of Niagara Escarpment east to Brighton. Inset images show the LS sequence at the Don Valleys brickyards (DVBY) and undeformed TF sand and gravel (~15 m) below Newmarket Till (NT) at sites L and Co.

Professor F. Alton Wade’s Antarctic Glaciological Researches [PDF]

Journal of Glaciology, 1947
On 7 May 1939 Professor F. Alton Wade, Chief Geologist of Admiral Byrd’s Third Antarctic Expedition, which came to be known as the U.S. Antarctic Service Expedition 1939–41, wrote a letter in the course of which he expressed the view that the efforts of the various expeditions to the polar regions should be more closely coordinated than they had been ...

PANGAEA information system for glaciological data management [PDF]

, 1998
Specific parameters determined on cores from continental ice sheets or glaciers can be used to reconstruct former climate. To use this scientific resource effectively an information system is needed which guarantees consistent longtime storage of data ...

Cold comfort for change: Stream mats as biological indicators of ecosystem processes in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Glacier‐fed streams (GFSs) make ideal systems for studying climate‐related changes. Some of the best‐studied GFSs are found in the McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDVs) of Antarctica, one of the Earth's coldest and driest deserts. Despite their harsh and isolated nature, MDV GFSs represent an oasis of life in a landscape visually devoid of it, with ...

Velocity estimation in GPR data based on diffraction analysis: Methodology and application to Antarctic firn

Near Surface Geophysics, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 170-186, April 2026.
Abstract This study presents a methodological framework for estimating electromagnetic wave velocities in ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) data based exclusively on the analysis of diffractions. The approach integrates diffraction separation using the plane wave destruction algorithm and subsequent velocity refinement through the residual diffraction ...

Rates of Sea‐Level Rise Are Highly Sensitive to Ice Viscosity Parameters in Model Benchmarks

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Glacier flow plays a major role in current and future rates of globally averaged sea‐level rise. The viscosity of glacial ice, controlling the rate of flow, decreases as stress increases and is highly sensitive to the value of the stress exponent, n $n$, in the constitutive equation for viscous flow.

Decadal GPS-derived ice surface velocity along the transect from Zhongshan Station to and around Dome Argus, East Antarctica, 2005–16

Annals of Glaciology, 2018
Using repeat GPS measurements during 2005–16, we calculated and updated two-dimensional high-resolution decadal ice surface velocity estimates along the traverse route from Zhongshan Station to and around Dome Argus, East Antarctica.

Glacier‐Atmosphere Interactions and Feedbacks in High‐Mountain Regions ‐ A Review

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Mountain glaciers are among the natural systems most vulnerable to climate change. However, their interactions with the atmosphere are complex and not fully understood. These interactions can trigger rapid adjustments and climate feedbacks that either amplify or attenuate atmospheric signals, influencing both glacier response and large‐scale ...
