Glacial isostatic adjustment in the static gravity field of Fennoscandia

open access: yes, 2015
In the central part of Fennoscandia, the crust is currently rising, because of the delayed response of the viscous mantle to melting of the Late Pleistocene ice sheet.

Relative sea-level data from SEAMIS database compared to ICE-5G model prediction of glacial isostatic adjustment

open access: yes, 2019
The SEAMIS database (Mendeley data repository; https://doi.org/10.17632/wp4ctb4667.1) contains 546 relative sea-level indicators from 31 different studies within the broader Southeast Asian region including the Maldives, India and Sri Lanka.

Glacial Isostatic Adjustment and Contemporary Sea Level Rise: An Overview

open access: yes, 2017
Glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) encompasses a suite of geophysical phenomena accompanying the waxing and waning of continental-scale ice sheets. These involve the solid Earth, the oceans and the cryosphere both on short (decade to century) and on long

Statistical analysis of the acceleration of Baltic mean sea-level rise, 1900-2012

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2016
We analyse annual mean sea-level records from tide-gauges located in the Baltic and parts of the North Sea with the aim of detecting an acceleration of sea-level rise over the 20textsuperscript{th} and 21textsuperscript{st} centuries.

Impact of glacial isostatic adjustment on cosmogenic surface-exposure dating

open access: yesQuaternary Science Reviews, 2019
Calculating cosmogenic-nuclide surface-exposure ages is critically dependent on a knowledge of the altitude of the sample site. Changes in altitude have occurred through time as a result of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA), potentially altering local nuclide production rates and, therefore, surface-exposure ages.

A simple physical model for glacial cycles [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Dynamics
Glacial cycles are the norm in Pleistocene climate variability. Models of varying degree of complexity have been used to answer the question of what causes the nonlinear response of the climate system to the periodic forcing from the Sun.

Effects of Andrade and Burgers rheologies on glacial isostatic adjustment modeling in Antarctica

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics
Variations in ice mass deform the Earth and modify its gravity field, a process known as Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA). GIA in Antarctica remains poorly constrained due to the cumulative effect of past and present ice-mass changes, the unknown ...

Constraining Glacial Isostatic Adjustment with Horizontal GPS Velocities in Antarctica

open access: yes, 2017
Glacial isostatic adjustment is the viscoelastic response of the Earth to ice and ocean loads. In forward models of glacial isostatic adjustment, mantle viscosity is often assumed to be laterally homogeneous.
