Modelling last glacial cycle ice dynamics in the Alps [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2018
The European Alps, the cradle of pioneering glacial studies, are one of the regions where geological markers of past glaciations are most abundant and well-studied.

Progress toward globally complete frontal ablation estimates of marine-terminating glaciers

Annals of Glaciology, 2022
Knowledge of frontal ablation from marine-terminating glaciers (i.e., mass lost at the calving face) is critical for constraining glacier mass balance, improving projections of mass change, and identifying the processes that govern frontal mass loss ...

Using a Web Map Service to map Little Ice Age glacier extents at regional scales

Annals of Glaciology, 2023
Extending the record of glacier area changes into the past improves our understanding of climate change impacts. Although analogue maps showing historic glacier extents are abundant, digital outlines from before the satellite era are sparse as the ...

Suitability of a constant air temperature lapse rate over an Alpine glacier: testing the Greuell and Böhm model as an alternative [PDF]

, 2013
Near-surface air temperature, typically measured at a height of 2 m, is the most important control on the energy exchange and the melt rate at a snow or ice surface.

Eurasian ice-sheet dynamics and sensitivity to subglacial hydrology

Journal of Glaciology, 2017
Ice-stream dynamics are strongly controlled by processes taking place at the ice/bed interface where subglacial water both lubricates the base and saturates any existing, underlying sediment. Large parts of the former Eurasian ice sheet were underlain by

Dark ice dynamics of the south-west Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2017
Runoff from the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) has increased in recent years due largely to changes in atmospheric circulation and atmospheric warming. Albedo reductions resulting from these changes have amplified surface melting.
