Deriving mass balance and calving variations from reanalysis data and sparse observations, Glaciar San Rafael, northern Patagonia, 1950–2005 [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2011 Mass balance variations of Glaciar San Rafael, the northernmost tidewater glacier in the Southern Hemisphere, are reconstructed over the period 1950–2005 using NCEP-NCAR reanalysis climate data together with sparse, local historical observations of air ...

Journal of Glaciology, 2022 Marine-terminating glaciers lose mass through melting and iceberg calving, and we find that meltwater drainage systems influence calving timing at Helheim Glacier, a tidewater glacier in East Greenland.

Autonomous detection of calving-related seismicity at Kronebreen, Svalbard [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2012 We detect and cluster waveforms of seismic signals recorded close to the calving front of Kronebreen, Svalbard, to identify glacier-related seismic events and to investigate their relation to calving processes.

Calving localization at Helheim Glacier using multiple local seismic stations [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2017 A multiple-station technique for localizing glacier calving events is applied to Helheim Glacier in southeastern Greenland. The difference in seismic-wave arrival times between each pairing of four local seismometers is used to generate a locus of ...

Quasi-static granular flow of ice mélange [PDF]
, 1936 We use Landsat 8 imagery to generate ice mélange velocity fields at Greenland’s three most productive outlet glaciers: Jakobshavn Isbræ, Helheim Glacier, and Kangerdlugssuaq Glacier.

Calving on tidewater glaciers amplified by submarine frontal melting [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2013 While it has been shown repeatedly that ocean conditions exhibit an important control on the behaviour of grounded tidewater glaciers, modelling studies have focused largely on the effects of basal and surface melting.

Calving cycle of Ninnis Glacier over the last 60 years
International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2021 Iceberg calving is one of the contributing ways for the mass loss from ice shelves in Antarctica; the calving cycles of most ice shelves are quite long.

Ablation from calving and surface melt at lake-terminating Bridge Glacier, British Columbia, 1984–2013 [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2016 Bridge Glacier is a lake-calving glacier in the Coast Mountains of British Columbia and has retreated over 3.55 km since 1972. The majority of this retreat has occurred since 1991.

Journal of Glaciology, 2021 Up to 30% of the current tidewater mass loss in Svalbard corresponds to frontal ablation through submarine melting and calving. We developed two-dimensional (2-D) glacier–line–plume and glacier–fjord circulation coupled models, both including subglacial ...

Impact of tides on calving patterns at Kronebreen, Svalbard – insights from three-dimensional ice dynamical modelling [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2023 Understanding calving processes and their controls is of importance for reducing uncertainty in sea level rise estimates. The impact of tidal fluctuations and frontal melt on calving patterns has been researched through both modelling and observational ...
