Boundary layer models for calving marine outlet glaciers

open access: yes, 2017
. We consider the flow of marine-terminating outlet glaciers that are laterally confined in a channel of prescribed width. In that case, the drag exerted by the channel side walls on a floating ice shelf can reduce extensional stress at the grounding ...

Thinning sea ice weakens buttressing force of iceberg mélange and promotes calving

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
At many marine-terminating glaciers, the breakup of mélange, a floating aggregation of sea ice and icebergs, has been accompanied by an increase in iceberg calving and ice mass loss.

The future is Nye: an extension of the perfect plastic approximation to tidewater glaciers

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2016
Accurate modeling of calving glaciers relies on knowledge of many processes (ice flow, surface/submarine melting, calving, mélange interaction) and glacier-specific factors (air temperature, ocean circulation, precipitation rate, glacier geometry) that ...

An integrated Structure-from-Motion and time-lapse technique for quantifying ice-margin dynamics

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2017
Fine resolution topographic data derived from methods such as Structure from Motion (SfM) and Multi-View Stereo (MVS) have the potential to provide detailed observations of geomorphological change, but have thus far been limited by the logistical ...

Calving relation for tidewater glaciers based on detailed stress field analysis

open access: yes, 2017
. Ocean-terminating glaciers in Arctic regions have undergone rapid dynamic changes in recent years, which have been related to a dramatic increase in calving rates.

Calving rates at tidewater glaciers vary strongly with ocean temperature

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
Rates of ice mass loss at the calving margins of tidewater glaciers (frontal ablation rates) are a key uncertainty in sea level rise projections. Measurements are difficult because mass lost is replaced by ice flow at variable rates, and frontal ablation

Tidewater calving [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1996
AbstractData from Columbia Glacier are used to identify processes that control calving from a temperate tidewater glacier and to re-evaluate models that have been proposed to describe iceberg calving. Since 1981, Columbia Glacier has been retreating rapidly, with an almost seven-fold increase in calving rate from the mid-1970s to 1993. At the same time,
