Estimation of glacier ice storage in western China constrained by field ground-penetrating Radar surveys

open access: yesAdvances in Climate Change Research, 2022
Recent decades have witnessed the accelerated retreat of alpine glaciers, which likely portends a decline in the glacial ice melt on which large downstream populations rely for freshwater. Thus, estimating water storage in alpine glaciers is critical for

Crevasses triggered on Pine Island Glacier by drilling through an exceptional melt layer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The basic theory of crevasse formation suggests that crevasses initiate at or near the surface. However, due to variations in stress with depth, it has been suggested that it is possible for crevasses to initiate at depths of 10–30m.
