Quantitative analysis of channel characteristics of distributive fluvial systems
ABSTRACT Distributive fluvial systems (DFSs) are characterised by a radial distributive channel pattern in planform and dominate modern‐day sedimentary basins. Where aggradation occurs, such as in sedimentary basins, there is increased preservation potential, and therefore, DFSs are hypothesised to constitute a significant portion of the continental ...

Glacio-limnological interactions at lake-calving glaciers [PDF]
Iceberg calving is an efficient ablation process which introduces mechanical instability to glacier systems and can cause non-linear climatic response.

Abstract Observational constraints on the vertical microphysical evolution of mixed‐phase precipitation across the melting layer over the high‐altitude of southeastern Tibetan Plateau remain scarce. Using collocated two‐dimensional video disdrometer and Micro Rain Radar measurements in rainy seasons of 2022–2025, we characterize the vertical ...

Dye-tracer studies of the hydrology of a High Arctic polythermal valley glacier: implications for glacier motion [PDF]
It is well recognised that the passage of water through temperate glaciers impacts significantly upon their pattern of ice dynamics. By contrast, the impact of subglacial hydrology on the dynamics of polythermal glaciers is poorly understood, due in part

Reassessing Last Glacial Maximum Cooling With Proxy‐Constrained Emergent Relationships
Abstract Reconstructing global temperatures from sparse proxy data remains a key uncertainty in paleoclimate science. Here, we apply an emergent constraint framework that combines statistical relationships from paleoclimate model simulations with proxy‐based estimates to infer unknown climate variables. We compiled a new multiproxy data set of tropical

The formation of valley-wall rock glaciers [PDF]
In recent years, the study of rock glaciers has increased remarkably. Substantive progress has been made, particularly in understanding the formation of rock glaciers that have developed adjacent to existing or former valley or cirque glaciers ...

Abstract The seasonal evolution of the subglacial drainage system is a critical control on velocity variations of Greenland marine‐terminating glaciers. Yet numerical models struggle to reproduce observed seasonal behavior, because fast flow suppresses channelization in subglacial hydrology models.

Quantification of Heat and Salt Budgets in the Western Ross Ice Shelf Cavity and Polynya System
Abstract The Ross Ice Shelf Polynya (RISP) is one of the primary production sites of the High Salinity Shelf Water (HSSW), the precursor of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) that drives the lower limb of global meridional overturning circulation. Utilizing a multi‐platform historical data set gathered over the western Ross Sea continental shelf, this study

Abstract Photosynthetic eukaryotic algae survived the Neoproterozoic Snowball Earth events, indicating that liquid‐water refugia existed somewhere on the surface. We examine the potential for refugia at the coldest time of a snowball event, before CO2 had risen and with high‐albedo ice on the frozen ocean, before it became darkened by dust deposition ...
