Surface velocity fluctuations for Glaciar Universidad, central Chile, between 1967 and 2015
Journal of Glaciology, 2016 For the Andes Cordillera, where observed mass-balance records are sparse, long-term glacier velocity measurements potentially represent a useful tool for assessing glacier health.

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 ...

Brief communication: Reduced bandwidth improves the depth limit of the radar coherence method for detecting ice crystal fabric asymmetry [PDF]
The CryosphereIce 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.

Geothermal heat flux of Ridge B region in Antarctica inferred from basal dry–wet distribution
Journal of GlaciologyRidge B is one of the least studied areas in Antarctica but has been considered to be a potential location for the oldest ice on Earth. Among important parameters for calculating where very old ice may exist, geothermal heat flux (GHF) is critical but ...
