Depositional and Hydrological Relationships Between Buried Dead Ice and the Active Layer in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica: A Study of Sediment Geochemistry and Cation Concentrations

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 725-752, October/December 2026.
ABSTRACT The McMurdo Dry Valleys, the largest ice‐free region in Antarctica, are home to a cold‐desert hydrologic system of glaciers, snowbanks, streams, and lakes. Freshwater is also stored as dead glacial ice, which is poorly constrained in terms of ion concentrations and interactions with both in situ and overlying sediments.

Returning Climate to Present Day May not Reduce Antarctic Mass Loss

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Using the BISICLES ice sheet model, we explore the Antarctic Ice Sheet's response over the 22nd century under two climate scenarios. In the return scenario, climate forcing is returned to present‐day levels (2015) in either 2050 or 2100 and then held constant until 2200.

Circumpolar Effects of a Velocity‐Restoring Scheme for Antarctic Fast Ice on Shelf Waters and Ice Shelf Melt Simulated by NEMO4‐SI3

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Dense water formation in the Southern Ocean plays a key role in the global ocean overturning circulation, affecting the distribution of heat, carbon, oxygen, and nutrients. Fast ice stays immobile while blocking sea ice flow, favoring the opening of coastal polynyas, where intense air‐sea exchanges drive sea ice production and ocean ...

Calving dynamics at Jakobshavn Isbrae (Sermeq Kujalleq) controlled by local geometry: insights from a 3D Stokes calving model

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
We present the first simulations of Jakobshavn Isbrae (Sermeq Kujalleq), west Greenland, using a 3D Stokes calving model that permits unrestricted advance and retreat.

Baffin Bay Freshwater Content Seasonal Variability and Budget: A Modeling Approach

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Baffin Bay plays a significant role as an exporter of freshwater from the Arctic to the North Atlantic. However, we still do not completely understand how this freshwater is stored and transformed within the bay before it exits. Here, we use a six‐member ensemble built using the Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean (NEMO)—at 1/4 ...

Scalable Phase‐Field Implementation of Crack Evolution (SPICE) for Modeling Surface Crevasse Growth and Interaction in Glaciers

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Iceberg calving driven by crevasse propagation is an important source of ice loss from the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets. However, simulating crevasse growth and interaction in 3D, spanning meters to kilometers length scales, remains computationally challenging for high‐fidelity models based on nonlocal continuum damage mechanics and ...

Thermal flexure and glacier calving

open access: yes, 2019
Glaciers and ice sheets that terminate in bodies of water are expected to undergo thermal expansion as ice comes into contact with much warmer liquid water. Here, I investigate the roll that this thermal expansion plays in the fracturing processes that give rise to glacier calving.

Calving front positions for 42 key glaciers of the Antarctic Peninsula Ice Sheet: a sub-seasonal record from 2013 to 2023 based on deep-learning application to Landsat multi-spectral imagery [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data
Calving front positions of marine-terminating glaciers are an essential parameter for understanding dynamic glacier changes and constraining ice modelling.
