Nature, 1873 PROF. TYNDALL has several times called attention to a point in regard to the height of the snow-line, which seems to be steadily overlooked by those who speculate on the causes of the great prevalence of snow during the glacial epoch. It is of course well known that the height of the snow-line at any place is determined mainly by two things, viz., the ...

Astronomical forcing shaped the timing of early Pleistocene glacial cycles
Communications Earth & Environment, 2023 Glacial cycles during the early Pleistocene are characterised by a dominant 41,000-year periodicity and amplitudes smaller than those of glacial cycles with ~100,000-year periodicity during the late Pleistocene. However, it remains unclear how the 41,000-

Post-Little Ice Age glacial lake evolution in Svalbard: inventory of lake changes and lake types
Journal of Glaciology, 2023 The rapid formation of glacial lakes is one of the most conspicuous landscape changes caused by atmospheric warming in glacierised regions. However, relatively little is known about the history and current state of glacial lakes in the High Arctic.

Evaluating the variability of glacial lakes in the Kyrgyz and Teskey ranges, Tien Shan
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The northern Tien Shan Mountains are one of the most hazardous areas in Kyrgyzstan due to frequent glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs). The current status of glacial lakes in this region has not been reported in recent years.

Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London, 1879 Summary The general result of sections III., IV., V. is that Indian glaciers are near about as large as they have been since the deposition of the crumpled Tertiary beds which are called “Nahuns” and “Shivaliks.” “The glacial period” is dated “Postpliocene.” The Indian ground traversed extends from Ceylon to Kangra, near lat.

Patterns in glacial-earthquake activity around Greenland, 2011–13
Journal of Glaciology, 2017 Glacial earthquakes are caused by large iceberg calving events, which are an important mechanism for mass loss from the Greenland ice sheet. The number of glacial earthquakes in Greenland has increased sixfold over the past two decades.
