State of balance of the cryosphere [PDF]

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, 1991
The current state of balance of the terrestrial ice sheets and glaciers is poorly known. What little data are available suggest that, worldwide, mountain glaciers have receded since about the mid‐nineteenth century, with occasional interruptions of the retreat. The interior part of the Greenland ice sheet appears to be thickening or in near equilibrium,

Calving as a Source of Acute and Persistent Kinetic Energy to Enhance Submarine Melting of Tidewater Glaciers

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract Calving icebergs at tidewater glaciers release large amounts of potential energy. This energy—in principle—could be a source for submarine melting, which scales with near‐terminus water temperature and velocity. Because near‐terminus currents are challenging to observe or predict, submarine melt remains a key uncertainty in projecting ...

GIA Model Statistics for GRACE Hydrology, Cryosphere, and Ocean Science

open access: yes, 2018
We provide a new analysis of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) with the goal of assembling the model uncertainty statistics required for rigorously extracting trends in surface mass from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission.

Intensified Warm and Moist Arctic Coast in Summer Due To Future Sea Ice Retreat

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract Increasing Arctic rainfall significantly impacts snow and ice processes, land runoff, and the ecological environment. However, the extent to which the rainfall increase is regionally dependent and how it responds to the large retreat of sea ice remains inadequately understood.

Large Carbon Losses From Burned Permafrost Peatlands During Post‐Fire Succession

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract The carbon (C) storage of boreal peatlands is threatened by an intensifying wildfire regime. Between 2019 and 2023 we used eddy covariance and surface closed chambers to monitor two permafrost peatlands in boreal western Canada that burned in 2019 and 2007.

Evidence of Power‐Law Scaling Regimes for Nanoscale‐Resolved Reaction Rates at Mineral‐Water Interfaces

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract We report the first quantitative analysis of statistical scaling of dissolution rates driving nanoscale self‐organization of the interface between a mineral and flowing water. Our study provides evidence of emergence of cross‐over between two power‐law scaling regimes characterized by distinct levels of persistence.

Role of Eddies in Primary Production in the California Current System

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract Mesoscale‐induced processes such as eddies, fronts, and filaments are believed to play a key role in regulating nutrient transport and primary production in the California Current System (CCS), though their precise influence remains debated.

Subseasonal Prediction Skill of Winter Quasi‐Stationary Waves in the Northern Hemisphere

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract Quasi‐stationary Rossby waves modulate persistent (lasting days to weeks) atmospheric ridges and troughs, and can lead to extreme weather events, particularly in the midlatitudes. Due to their persistent nature, these quasi‐stationary waves (QSWs) provide a unique opportunity to improve subseasonal forecasts of extreme events.
