Calving as a Source of Acute and Persistent Kinetic Energy to Enhance Submarine Melting of Tidewater Glaciers

Geophysical Research Letters
Calving icebergs at tidewater glaciers release large amounts of potential energy. This energy—in principle—could be a source for submarine melting, which scales with near‐terminus water temperature and velocity.

A Novel Approach to Automated Mapping Subweekly Calving Front of Petermann Glacier (2016–2023)—Using Sentinel-2 Satellite Data and Segment Anything Model (SAM)

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Monitoring glacier calving fronts is critical for understanding ice dynamics and their response to climate change. However, existing methods of mapping ice calving front face limitations in temporal resolution and positional accuracy, hindering effective

Digital surface models are not always representative of former glacier beds: palaeoglaciological and geomorphological implications [PDF]

, 2013
Quantitative palaeoglaciological studies that use digital surface models (DSMs) may be subject to error because former glacier beds are not always accurately represented.

Modelling experiments of the variations of the calving front position of Hansbreen, Svalbard [PDF]

, 2013
Hansbreen is a tidewater glacier in Svalbard, with grounded tongue, about 16 km in length and ca. 2.5 km in width at its tongue. The calving front position has shown, over the recent decades, a general retreating trend, often rather smooth but with some ...

Icequakes coupled with surface displacements for predicting glacier break-off

, 2010
A hanging glacier at the east face of Weisshorn (Switzerland) broke off in 2005. We were able to monitor and measure surface motion and icequake activity for 25 days up to three days prior to the break-off.

First Order Estimation of Calving Losses from Gulf of Alaska Glaciers [PDF]

, 2012
Despite its importance in projections of sea level rise, dynamic mass loss from tidewater glaciers remains poorly constrained and understood. Owing to this difficulty, very few long-term or estimates of dynamic losses exist, and regional estimates of ...
