Intermittent structural weakening and acceleration of the Thwaites Glacier Tongue between 2000 and 2018 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Evolving conditions at the terminus of Thwaites Glacier will be important in determining the rate of its future sea-level contribution over the coming decades.

Rapid Access Ice Drill: a new tool for exploration of the deep Antarctic ice sheets and subglacial geology

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2014
A new Rapid Access Ice Drill (RAID) will penetrate the Antarctic ice sheets in order to create borehole observatories and take cores in deep ice, the glacial bed and bedrock below.

Unexpectedly High Accumulation Rates in the 2022 Mt. Logan Ice Core Reveal Warm‐Season Drivers of Precipitation Variability

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract Ice cores from Mt. Logan, the second highest peak in North America located in the St. Elias mountains in southwest Yukon, Canada, have provided conflicting accumulation records, thus the hydroclimate response to changing atmospheric conditions in the highest elevation regions is not well constrained.

Ice loss processes in the Seal Nunataks ice shelf region from satellite altimetry and imagery

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2016
The Seal Nunataks ice shelf (SNIS, ~743 km2 in 2013) is an unofficial name for a remnant area between the former Larsen A and Larsen B ice shelves off the northeastern Antarctic Peninsula. Analyses using Landsat 7 ETM+ and Terra ASTER images from 2001 to

Future Atmospheric Rivers in Antarctica: Characteristics and Impacts With the IPSL Model

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Atmospheric rivers (ARs) are narrow corridors of intense water vapor transport that have significant impacts on the Antarctic surface mass balance (SMB) through both snow accumulation and surface melt due to rain and heat. To estimate their impacts on future SMB, we study Antarctic ARs in an ensemble of 21st‐century simulations of the IPSL‐CM6

Spatial–temporal dynamics of chemical composition of surface snow in East Antarctica along the Progress station–Vostok station transect [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2014
In January of 2008, during the 53rd Russian Antarctic Expedition, surface snow samples were taken from 13 shallow (0.7 to 1.5 m depth) snow pits along the first tractor traverse from Progress to Vostok stations, East Antarctica.

Joint inversion estimate of regional glacial isostatic adjustment in Antarctica considering a lateral varying Earth structure (ESA STSE Project REGINA) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A major uncertainty in determining the mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet from measurements of satellite gravimetry, and to a lesser extent satellite altimetry, is the poorly known correction for the ongoing deformation of the solid Earth caused by
