Velocity response of Petermann Glacier, northwest Greenland, to past and future calving events [PDF]
, 2018 Dynamic ice discharge from outlet glaciers across the Greenland Ice Sheet has increased since the beginning of the 21st century. Calving from floating ice tongues that buttress these outlets can accelerate ice flow and discharge of grounded ice. However,

Brief Communication "The 2013 Erebus Glacier Tongue calving event" [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2013 The Erebus Glacier Tongue, a small floating glacier in southern McMurdo Sound, is one of the best-studied ice tongues in Antarctica. Despite this, its calving on the 27 February 2013 (UTC) was around 10 yr earlier than previously predicted.

GLACIER FRONTAL LINE EXTRACTION FROM SENTINEL-1 SAR IMAGERY IN PRYDZ AREA [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2018 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) can provide all-day and all-night observation of the earth in all-weather conditions with high resolution, and it is widely used in polar research including sea ice, sea shelf, as well as the glaciers.

Southern Ocean warming: Increase in basal melting and grounded ice loss [PDF]
, 2013 We apply a global finite element sea ice/ice shelf/ocean model (FESOM) to the Antarctic marginal seas to analyze projections of ice shelf basal melting in a warmer climate.

Birth of a Large Iceberg in Pine Island Bay, Antarctica [PDF]
, 2004 This lithograph shows the break-off of a large iceberg from the Pine Island Glacier in West Antarctica. This event occurred between November 4th and 12th, 2001, and provides powerful evidence of rapid changes underway in this area of Antarctica.
