A 3D glacier dynamics–line plume model to estimate the frontal ablation of Hansbreen, Svalbard [PDF]
The CryosphereFrontal ablation is responsible for a large fraction of the mass loss from tidewater glaciers. The main contributors to frontal ablation are iceberg calving and submarine melting, with calving often being the largest.

Grounding line migration through the calving season at Jakobshavn Isbræ, Greenland, observed with terrestrial radar interferometry [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2018 Ice velocity variations near the terminus of Jakobshavn Isbræ, Greenland, were observed with a terrestrial radar interferometer (TRI) during three summer campaigns in 2012, 2015, and 2016.

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2018 Seafloor communities are a critical part of the unique and diverse Antarctic marine life. Processes at the ocean-surface can strongly influence the diversity and abundance of these communities, even when they live at hundreds of meters water depth ...

Calving laws and where to find them
Journal of GlaciologyCalving from tidewater glaciers and ice shelves is an important component of global mass balance and may contribute significantly to future sea-level rise.

Radioglaciological studies on Hurd Peninsula glaciers, Livingston Island, Antarctica [PDF]
, 2009 We present the results of several radio-echo sounding surveys carried out on Johnsons and Hurd Glaciers, Livingston Island, Antarctica, between the 1999/2000 and 2004/05 austral summer campaigns, which included both radar profiling and common-midpoint ...

Journal of the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice, 2002 氷河のカービング(calving)は,末端が流出する水域が海か湖(真水)かによって,そのメカニズムや動的特性が異なる.カービングを支配する要素は,氷河の形態,動的状態,水深,底面地形,水文環境(融水の滲透,潮汐,潮流,波浪,対流等),大気および水との熱交換と多岐にわたる.山岳氷河のカービングの基礎的なしくみと特性について解説する.

An Overview of Tsunami Hazards in the Southwest Pacific Ocean
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.The southwest Pacific region is geologically complex and exhibits all the principal causes of tsunami generation. While contemporary events and historical catalogs indicate that trans‐Pacific tsunamis have affected this area (∼18% of tsunamis reported globally), it is unique in that a large part of the tsunami effects over the ∼200‐year historical ...

High-frequency image analysis of calving activity and styles at Hansbreen, Svalbard
Journal of GlaciologySequential photographic records of glacier termini go back to the mid-20th century, revealing climate-driven retreat. More recently, time-lapse imagery has enabled detailed analysis of glacier dynamics, including calving.

A simple stress-based cliff-calving law [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2019 Over large coastal regions in Greenland and Antarctica the ice sheet calves directly into the ocean. In contrast to ice-shelf calving, an increase in calving from grounded glaciers contributes directly to sea-level rise.

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Sea ice is situated close to the termini of many outlet glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic and has the potential to influence their dynamics and, therefore, their contribution to sea level rise. However, the nature, prevalence, and ice‐dynamic significance of sea ice‐glacier interactions remains subject to several open questions.
