This paper presents the results of a dual approach for assessing fossil benthic foraminiferal communities using both traditional morphology‐based analyses and sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA) metabarcoding. The main objectives are to test the feasibility of sedaDNA analyses to assess foraminiferal biodiversity in temperate shelf sediments (Le Croisic,

The spatial glaciological data infrastructure
Substantial and rapid environmental changes require developing methods which could be able to manage huge information flows, to optimize processes of the data acquisition, storage, analysis, and exchange.

Brief communication: Reduced bandwidth improves the depth limit of the radar coherence method for detecting ice crystal fabric asymmetry [PDF]
Ice crystal orientation fabric strongly affects the viscous deformation of glacier ice. A popular technique to investigate ice fabric is radar polarimetry, often analysed using the coherence method.

Glaciological and Geomorphological Reconnaissance in the Antarctic in 1956 [PDF]
AbstractThis paper presents a preliminary account of the glaciological observations made by the Antarctic Expedition of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences in Kaiser Wilhelm II Land, Queen Mary Land and Knox Coast in 1956. The topography of the edge of the ice sheet is described, and the ice regime is discussed, particularly in relation to the existence ...

On the glaciological, meteorological, and climatological significance of Antarctic blue ice areas [PDF]
This paper presents the current state of our knowledge about Antarctic blue ice areas. Scattered widely over the Antarctic continent yet covering only approximately 1% of its surface area, blue ice areas have some peculiar characteristics that make them of particular interest for planetary geologists, glaciologists, meteorologists, and climatologists ...

Spatial variability of snow chemistry in western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica [PDF]
During the austral summer of 1993-94 a number of 1-2 m deep snow pits were sampled in connection with firn-coring in western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. The traverse went from 800 to about 3000 m a.s.l. upon the high-altitude plateau.

Giant crack in Antarctic ice shelf spotlights advances in glaciology [PDF]
Rift through Larsen C ice shelf has grown to 175 kilometres, and collapse of nearby ice shelves could offer a glimpse of its future.

Ice cores and SeaRISE: What we do (and don't) know [PDF]
Ice core analyses are needed in SeaRISE to learn what the West Antarctic ice sheet and other marine ice sheets were like in the past, what climate changes led to their present states, and how they behave.

Past rates of accumulation in central West Antarctica [PDF]
The spatial variation in ice accumulation is critical to the form and stability of ice sheets. In West Antarctica, knowledge of present ice accumulation rates is restricted to sparse measurements and interpolations across data free regions, while ...

Progress of Japanese glaciological research in the Antarctic.
Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE) established Syowa Station on East Ongul Island in Lutzow-Holm Bay in January 1957 and an inland station Mizuho in July 1970. These two stations have been the bases for glaciological work of JARE in conjunction with the research at home laboratories.
