Annals of Glaciology, 2019 Fast ice flow is associated with the deformation of subglacial sediment. Seismic shear velocities, Vs, increase with the rigidity of material and hence can be used to distinguish soft sediment from hard bedrock substrates.

Advances in geophysical exploration of ice sheets and glaciers [PDF]
Journal of Glaciology, 1975 Abstract The techniques of geophysical exploration can be used in a number of ways to investigate the internal characteristics of ice bodies. The application of radio-echo sounding is discussed elsewhere by Robin (1975[a]) so is not considered here except for a few special cases.

Acquisition of a 3 min, two-dimensional glacier velocity field with terrestrial radar interferometry
Journal of Glaciology, 2017 Outlet glaciers undergo rapid spatial and temporal changes in flow velocity during calving events. Observing such changes requires both high temporal and high spatial resolution methods, something now possible with terrestrial radar interferometry. While

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Rock glaciers are the most abundant (peri) glacial landform in the semiarid Andes (SA, 29–34°S), covering about three times the area of mountain glaciers.

Patterns in glacial-earthquake activity around Greenland, 2011–13
Journal of Glaciology, 2017 Glacial earthquakes are caused by large iceberg calving events, which are an important mechanism for mass loss from the Greenland ice sheet. The number of glacial earthquakes in Greenland has increased sixfold over the past two decades.

Journal of Glaciology, 2021 Knowledge of glacier volume is crucial for ice flow modelling and predicting the impacts of climate change on glaciers. Rugged terrain, harsh weather conditions and logistic costs limit field-based ice thickness observations in the Himalaya.

Annals of Glaciology, 2020 Radar surveys across ice sheets typically measure numerous englacial layers that can often be regarded as isochrones. Such layers are valuable for extrapolating age–depth relationships away from ice-core locations, reconstructing palaeoaccumulation ...

Chemical and isotopic switching within the subglacial environment of a high Arctic glacier. [PDF]
, 2006 Natural environmental isotopes of nitrate, sulphate and inorganic carbon are discussed in conjunction with major ion chemistry of subglacial runoff from a High Arctic glacier, Midre Lovénbreen, Svalbard. The chemical composition of meltwaters is observed
