Dynamics of Glacier Calving at the Ungrounded Margin of Helheim Glacier, Southeast Greenland [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research F: Earth Surface, 2015 During summer 2013 we installed a network of 19 GPS nodes at the ungrounded margin of Helheim Glacier in southeast Greenland together with three cameras to study iceberg calving mechanisms.

Glacier Calving in Greenland. [PDF]
Curr Clim Change Rep, 2017 The authors acknowledge funding from NERC NE/P011365/1 CALISMO (Calving Laws for Ice Sheet Models)In combination, the breakaway of icebergs (calving) and submarine melting at marineterminating glaciers account for between one third and one half of the ...

Crevasse advection increases glacier calving
Journal of Glaciology, 2022 Iceberg calving, the process where icebergs detach from glaciers, remains poorly understood. Moreover, few parameterizations of the calving process can easily be integrated into numerical models to accurately capture observations, resulting in large ...

Instability of a Calving Glacier Terminus [PDF]
Journal of Glaciology, 1979 An unstable situation can develop when a calving glacier (one that ends in water but is still grounded throughout) terminates on a shoal. This instability is largely a consequence of continuity and the extending flow which occurs up-glacier of the shoal.

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 ...

'Calving laws', 'sliding laws' and the stability of tidewater glaciers [PDF]
Annals of Glaciology, 2007 A new calving criterion is introduced, which predicts calving where the depth of surface crevasses equals ice height above sea level. Crevasse depth is calculated from strain rates, and terminus position and calving rate are therefore functions of ice ...

Calving Cycle of Ninnis Glacier Over the Last 60 Years
International Journal of Applied Earth Observation 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.

Calving at Ryder Glacier, Northern Greenland [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2021 Recent evidence has shown increasing mass loss from the Greenland ice sheet, with a general trend of accelerated mass losses extending northwards.

Surface wave generation due to glacier calving [PDF]
Oceanologia, 2013 Coastal glaciers reach the ocean in a spectacular process called "calving". Immediately after calving, the impulsive surface waves are generated, sometimes of large height.

Responses of a polar predator to a glacier calving event [PDF]
Royal Society Open ScienceExtreme episodic changes in Antarctic continental shelf regions, such as glacier calving or iceberg grounding, can fundamentally reshape regional sea-ice conditions.
