The 1982/83 surge and antecedent quiescent phase of Variegated Glacier: revising the original dataset for application in flow line models

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2017
The extensive dataset of Variegated Glacier's 1982/83 surge and antecedent quiescent phase is fragmentary and predominantly of flow line nature. Applying the raw centre line data in a flow line model to conduct research into the mechanism behind ...

Oceanographic observations at the Amundsen sea shelf break [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Introduction: The continental shelf environment of the Amundsen and Bellingshausen seas differs markedly from that of the other circumpolar seas, where water temperatures are close to the surface freezing point throughout.

Glacier and ice sheet flow

open access: yesGeophysical & Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics
This review of the dynamics of the flow of glaciers and ice sheets focusses on the mathematical models which have been developed to explain a number of observations in the behaviour of these large ice masses. It takes a personal view, starting with an account of the historical development of the subject, followed by a tour of some of the observational ...

Role of glaciers in watershed hydrology: a preliminary study of a "Himalayan catchment" [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2010
A large number of Himalayan glacier catchments are under the influence of humid climate with snowfall in winter (November–April) and south-west monsoon in summer (June–September) dominating the regional hydrology.

Numerical simulation of glacier terminus evolution using the dual action principle for momentum balance

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
The momentum conservation equation for glacier flow can be described through minimization of an action functional. Several software packages for glacier flow modeling use this action principle in the design of numerical solution procedures.

A century of flow and surge history of Sít’ Tlein (Malaspina Glacier), Southeast Alaska

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Sít’ Tlein (Malaspina Glacier), located in Southeast Alaska, has a complex flow history. This piedmont glacier, the largest in the world, is fed by three main tributaries that all exhibit similar flow patterns, yet with varying surge cycles. The piedmont

Subterranean glacial spillways: an example from the karst of South Wales, UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Many karst areas in the UK have been glaciated one or more times during the last 0.5 Ma, yet there are few documented examples of caves in these regions being affected by glacial processes other than erosion.
