Surface elevation changes on Lachman Crags ice caps (north-eastern Antarctic Peninsula) since 1979 indicated by DEMs and ICESat data

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2019
The long-term warming on the Antarctic Peninsula in the second half of the 20th century prompted rapid retreat of glaciers on the peninsula and surrounding islands.

Examining the effect of ice dynamic changes on subglacial hydrology through modelling of a synthetic Antarctic glacier

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2023
Hydrologic pathways beneath ice sheets and glaciers play an important role in regulating ice flow. Antarctica has experienced, and will continue to experience, changes in ice dynamics and geometry, but the associated changes in subglacial hydrology have ...

Subglacial processes on an Antarctic ice stream bed. 2: Can modelled ice dynamics explain the morphology of mega-scale glacial lineations?

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2016
Mega-scale glacial lineations (MSGLs) are highly elongate subglacial bedforms associated with ice streaming. However, the link between MSGLs and rapid ice flow is largely qualitative, and there have been few attempts to quantitatively link their ...

CMIP5 temperature biases and 21st century warming around the Antarctic coast

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2016
Projections of ice-sheet mass balance require regional ocean warming projections derived from atmosphere-ocean general circulation models (AOGCMs). However, the coarse resolution of AOGCMs: (1) may lead to systematic or AOGCM-specific biases and (2 ...

Comparison of elastic moduli from seismic diving-wave and ice-core microstructure analysis in Antarctic polar firn

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2019
We compared elastic moduli in polar firn derived from diving wave refraction seismic velocity analysis, firn-core density measurements and microstructure modelling based on firn-core data.

Diurnal lake-level cycles on ice shelves driven by meltwater input and ocean tidal tilt

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2020
Diurnal depth cycles of decimeter scale are observed in a supraglacial lake on the McMurdo Ice Shelf, Antarctica. We evaluate two possible causes: (1) tidal tilt of the ice shelf in response to the underlying ocean tide, and (2) meltwater input variation.

A stratigraphic link across 1100 km of the Antarctic Ice Sheet between the Vostok ice-core site and Titan Dome (near South Pole) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Isochronous internal ice-sheet layering, measured from airborne 60 MHz radar, was traced between Lake Vostok and the Titan Ice Dome (100 km from South Pole Station), Antarctica. Three layers were selected between Ridge B and Titan Dome, and between Ridge

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

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

open access: yesReviews 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 ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
