Optimal locations of sea-level indicators in glacial isostatic adjustment investigations [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2014
Fréchet (sensitivity) kernels are an important tool in glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) investigations to understand lithospheric thickness, mantle viscosity and ice-load model variations.

A benchmark study for glacial isostatic adjustment codes [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2011
The study of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) is gaining an increasingly important role within the geophysical community. Understanding the response of the Earth to loading is crucial in various contexts, ranging from the interpretation of modern satellite geodetic measurements (e.g.

Glacial isostatic adjustment: physical models and observational constraints

open access: yesReports on Progress in Physics, 2022
Abstract By far the most prescient insights into the interior structure of the planet have been provided on the basis of elastic wave seismology. Analysis of the travel times of shear or compression wave phases excited by individual earthquakes, or through analysis of the elastic gravitational free oscillations that individual ...

Long time series of absolute gravity observations in Kulusuk, southeast Greenland

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal, 2023
This report contains terrestrial absolute gravity measurements performed near the village of Kulusuk in southeast Greenland. It represents an exceptionally long time series of nearly two decades. The measurements began in July 1996 until July 2015.

State-of-the-art in studies of glacial isostatic adjustment for the British Isles: a literature review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Understanding the effects of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) of the British Isles is essential for the assessment of past and future sea-level trends.

Geodetic constraints on glacial isostatic adjustment in Europe [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2005
Direct measurements of surface deformation due to Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA) in Europe have been so far mostly limited to the present‐day uplift area. Here, we use permanent GPS networks results to investigate the significance of GIA effects in Europe south of Fennoscandia.

Combination of geodetic observations and models for glacial isostatic adjustment fields in Fennoscandia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We demonstrate a new technique for using geodetic data to update a priori predictions for Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA) in the Fennoscandia region.

The comparative role of physical system processes in Hudson Strait ice stream cycling: a comprehensive model-based test of Heinrich event hypotheses [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past
Despite their recognized significance on global climate and extensive research efforts, the mechanism(s) driving Heinrich events remain(s) a subject of debate.

Impact of glacial isostatic adjustment on zones of potential grounding line persistence in the Ross Sea Embayment (Antarctica) since the Last Glacial Maximum [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Ice streams in the Ross Sea Embayment (West Antarctica) retreated up to 1000 km since the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). One way that bathymetry influenced this retreat was through the presence of local bathymetric highs, or pinning points, which decreased ...

GEORGIA: A Graph Neural Network Based EmulatOR for Glacial Isostatic Adjustment

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) modeling is not only useful for understanding past relative sea‐level change but also for projecting future sea‐level change due to ongoing land deformation.
