Calving on tidewater glaciers amplified by submarine frontal melting [PDF]
O'Leary, M. and Christoffersen, P.: Calving on tidewater glaciers
amplified by submarine frontal melting, The Cryosphere Discuss., 6,
3287-3316, 2012, 2012 While it has been shown repeatedly that ocean conditions exhibit an important control on the behaviour of grounded tidewater glaciers, modelling studies have focused largely on the effects of basal and surface melting. Here, a finite-element model of stresses near the front of a tidewater glacier is used to investigate the effects of frontal melting on

Boreas, EarlyView.Environmental changes on the northern part of Taymyr Peninsula during the last 62 ka were reconstructed based on pollen assemblages throughout a 46‐m‐long sediment core from Lake Levinson‐Lessing (74°27′54″N, 98°39′58″E). Environmental changes on the northern Taymyr Peninsula were reconstructed based on a new pollen record from a 46‐m‐long sediment ...

A new look at roles of the cryosphere in sustainable development
Advances in Climate Change Research, 2019 While the cryosphere may bring in adverse impacts on natural and built environment, it may also provide benefits resulting from cryosphere services. By looking into the effect of the cryosphere on human-being, the study develops a unified approach in the
