Fracture criteria and tensile strength for natural glacier ice calibrated from remote sensing observations of Antarctic ice shelves

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
The conditions under which ice fractures and calves icebergs from Antarctic ice shelves are poorly understood due largely to a lack of relevant observations. Though previous studies have estimated the stresses at which ice fractures in the laboratory and

Structural characteristics of flow units in Svalbard valley glaciers and their utility for investigating ice-dynamic changes over centennial timescales

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
The aim of this paper is to characterise the internal structures and ice-flow history of representative valley glaciers in Svalbard and infer from them dynamic changes over centennial timescales.

Transition Between Mechanical and Geometric Controls in Glacier Crevassing Processes

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Herein, fast fracture initiation in glacier ice is modeled using a Material Point Method and a simplified constitutive law describing tensile strain softening.

Drone-Borne LiDAR and Photogrammetry Together with Historical Data for Studying a Paleo-Landslide Reactivated by Road-Cutting and Barrier Construction outside Jerusalem

open access: yesGeotechnics
Assessment of landslide hazards often depends on the ability to track possible changes in natural slopes. To that end, historical air photos can be useful, particularly when slope stability is compromised by visible cracking.

Progression of the surge in the Negribreen Glacier System from two years of ICESat-2 measurements

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
The state-of-the-art measurement capabilities of ICESat-2 allow high spatiotemporal resolution of complex ice-dynamic processes that occur during a surge.
