Palaeoglaciations in the Polar and Subpolar Ural Mountains
The Ural Mountains form a major physiographic boundary between the East European Plain and West Siberia, both repeatedly glaciated during the Pleistocene by the Barents–Kara ice sheet. Although the present‐day topography reflects significant glacial modification, the extent, chronology and interaction of mountain glaciers with the Barents–Kara ice ...

Glaciological research, mainly since World War II, is reviewed by the first author; and specific aspects outlined by the second: velocity relations, and structures in glaciers, phase relations in glacier ice, oxygen isotope studies in snow, firn and ...

Our knowledge of the Early Upper Palaeolithic occupation in northern central Europe is very limited, and recent research at the open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg in Hesse, Germany, provides important new information on the Aurignacian. The site is rather small (26.5 m2) and spatial analysis identified a central hearth with two associated ...

Japanese glaciological activities in the Arctic region (report)
P(論文) The objectives of the Japanese Arctic Glaciological Expedition were to study the regional characteristics of glacier processes and the climatic and environmental changes for the last few hundred years in the Arctic cryosphere. During 1987-1996,glaciological observation and shallow ice core drilling were carried out at various places such as the ...

Seasonal Ice Dynamics Control the Timing of Crevasse Drainage at a Fast‐Flowing Outlet Glacier
Abstract Crevasse field drainage transfers at least half of the seasonal runoff from the surface to the bed of the Greenland Ice Sheet, but the patterns of drainage are complex and spatio‐temporally heterogenous. To better understand controls on crevasse drainage processes, we use an automated deep learning method to map the seasonal filling and ...

Harold Victor Serson (1926-1992)
... Harold first went to the Arctic in 1944 as a Hudson\u27s Bay Company seaman aboard the Nascopie. Thus began a lifelong association with the Arctic. In 1945 he joined the Department of Transport as a radiosonde technician.

Convection in fluid and porous media [PDF]
The subject of convection in fluid and porous media is investigated. Particular attention is paid to penetrative convection. The first two chapters are devoted to penetrative convection when fluid overlies and saturates a porous medium.

Circumpolar Science : Scandinavian Approaches to the Arctic and the North Atlantic, ca. 1920 to 1960
ArgumentThe Scandinavian countries share a solid reputation as longstanding contributors to top level Arctic research. This received view, however, veils some deep-seated contrasts in the ways that Sweden, Norway, and Denmark have conducted research in ...

Abstract Future atmospheric warming could cause an abrupt increase in ocean temperature beneath the Filchner–Ronne Ice Shelf, Antarctica, from −2.2°C to more than 0°C in a few decades. In simulations, such a transition leads to a twenty‐fold increase in sub‐shelf melt rates, driving a retreat of the ice sheet.
