Flow and structure in a dendritic glacier with bedrock steps

Journal of Glaciology, 2017
We analyse ice flow and structural glaciology of Shackleton Glacier, a dendritic glacier with multiple icefalls in the Canadian Rockies. A major tributary-trunk junction allows us to investigate the potential of tributaries to alter trunk flow and ...

'Calving laws', 'sliding laws' and the stability of tidewater glaciers [PDF]

, 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 ...

Potential climatic transitions with profound impact on Europe [PDF]

, 2011
We discuss potential transitions of six climatic subsystems with large-scale impact on Europe, sometimes denoted as tipping elements. These are the ice sheets on Greenland and West Antarctica, the Atlantic thermohaline circulation, Arctic sea ice, Alpine

Susceptibility analysis of glacier debris flow by investigating glacier changes based on remote sensing imagery and deep learning: A case study

Natural Hazards Research
Glacier debris flow is becoming increasingly severe as global warming intensifies. To minimize the catastrophic losses caused by glacier debris flow, it is essential to analyze the susceptibility of glacier debris flow.

Origin and significance of 'dispersed facies' basal ice: Svínafellsjökull, Iceland [PDF]

, 2010
Dispersed facies basal ice - massive (i.e. structureless) ice with dispersed debris aggregates - is present at the margins of many glaciers and, as a product of internal glacial processes, has the potential to provide important information about the ...
