Quantifying user variability in the traditional X‐ray ice‐rafted‐debris counting technique

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The flux of icebergs is most commonly constrained in the palaeo‐record by manually counting gravel clasts in sediment core X‐ray images—a trusted method in Quaternary science and palaeoceanography for nearly 40 years. In this study, we explore the reproducibility (user consistency and between‐user variability) of the traditional clast‐counting

Massive subsurface ice formed by refreezing of ice-shelf melt ponds

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
The influence of surface ponding on the interior of ice shelves is currently unknown. Here, the authors combine surface and borehole geophysics on the Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctica, with remote sensing and modelling and show how pond refreezing ...

Seasonal changes in submarine melting mechanisms controlling frontal ablation of Hansbreen, Svalbard

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2023
We describe the annual pattern of frontal ablation driven by submarine melting mechanisms at the Hansbreen terminus: these are reflected in the intensity and spatial distribution of calving events.

Geochronological reconstruction of the Lateglacial deglaciation in the Arve Valley (Northern French Alps)

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The timing and spatial patterns of glaciers retreat in the Northern French Alps during the Lateglacial (19.0–11.7 ka) remain debated, reflecting discrepancies among available chronological data sets. The complex interactions between major glaciers, such as the Rhône and Arve glaciers to the north and the Isère glacier to the south, represent a

Changing contribution of peak velocity events to annual velocities following a multi-decadal slowdown at White Glacier

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2017
As the focus of intensive glaciological studies in the 1960–70s, White Glacier on Axel Heiberg Island, Canada, has played an important role in understanding the dynamics of mostly-cold polythermal glaciers in the high Arctic.

Modelling spatial patterns of near-surface air temperature over a decade of melt seasons on McCall Glacier, Alaska

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2020
We examine the spatial patterns of near-surface air temperature (Ta) over a melting glacier using a multi-annual dataset from McCall Glacier, Alaska. The dataset consists of a 10-year (2005–2014) meteorological record along the glacier centreline up to ...

Vulnerability of the North Water ecosystem to climate change

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The North Water polynya is a unique but vulnerable ecosystem, home to Indigenous people and Arctic keystone species. New palaeoecological records from Greenland suggest human abandonment c.

Decoupling glacier retreat and surface stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (Slovenia), insights from in situ cosmogenic 36Cl exposure and depth‐profile ages

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glaciokarst landscapes pose distinctive challenges for cosmogenic dating because meltwater and runoff can be rapidly rerouted into ponors and conduit networks, weakening glacier–river coupling and promoting local sediment storage. We reconstruct glacier retreat and postglacial stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (SW Slovenia) using in situ ...
