Controls on Ice Cliff Distribution and Characteristics on Debris‐Covered Glaciers
Ice cliff distribution plays a major role in determining the melt of debris‐covered glaciers but its controls are largely unknown. We assembled a data set of 37,537 ice cliffs and determined their characteristics across 86 debris‐covered glaciers within ...

Flow dynamics of an accumulation basin: a case study of upper Kahiltna Glacier, Mount McKinley, Alaska [PDF]
We interpreted flow dynamics of the Kahiltna Pass Basin accumulation zone on Mount McKinley, Alaska, USA, using 40, 100 and 900 MHz ground-penetrating radar profiles and GPS surface velocity measurements.

Moment tensor inversions of icequakes on Gornergletscher, Switzerland [PDF]
We have determined seismic source mechanisms for shallow and intermediate-depth icequake clusters recorded on the glacier Gornergletscher, Switzerland, during the summers of 2004 and 2006.

Detailed studies on temporal changes of crevasses and their linkage with glacier dynamics are scarce in the Himalayan context. Observations of temporally changing surficial crevasse patterns and their orientations are suggestive of the processes that ...

Heptageniidae (Ephemeroptera) of Wisconsin [PDF]
(excerpt) Heptageniidae are one of the most abundant and widespread components of Wisconsin\u27s aquatic insect fauna. In almost any stream with a firm substrate and free of gross pollution, the flattened nymphs can be found hiding in crevasses and under

Glacier dynamics near the calving front of Bowdoin Glacier, northwestern Greenland [PDF]
To better understand recent rapid recession of marine-terminating glaciers in Greenland, we performed satellite and field observations near the calving front of Bowdoin Glacier, a 3 km wide outlet glacier in northwestern Greenland.

Automated detection of basal icequakes and discrimination from surface crevassing
Icequakes at or near the bed of a glacier have the potential to allow us to investigate the interaction of ice with the underlying till or bedrock. Understanding this interaction is important for studying basal sliding of glaciers and ice streams, a ...

AbstractAn approximate calculation is made of the rate at which a bottom crevasse in a cold ice shelf or tabular iceberg can close shut by freezing of water and can creep open through the creep deformation of ice. In all but the thickest ice shelves and icebergs, those with a thickness greater than about 400 m, the freezing process is the more ...

Response of river-dominated delta channel networks to permanent changes in river discharge [PDF]
Using numerical experiments, we investigate how river-dominated delta channel networks are likely to respond to changes in river discharge predicted to occur over the next century as a result of environmental change.
