Reconstructing Glacier Surge Kinematics Using a Numerical Ice‐Flow Model Applied to the Dusty Glacier, St. Elias Mountains, Canada

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Long‐term records of the flow patterns and dynamics of surge‐type glaciers improve our understanding of their underlying dynamic processes, and are critical to better resolve their contribution to a changing cryosphere.

Ablation of Martian glaciers [PDF]

open access: yes
Glacier like landforms are observed in the fretted terrain of Mars in the latitude belts near + or - 42 deg. It was suggested that sublimation or accumulation-ablation rates could be estimated for these glaciers if their shapes were known.

A Second Large Subglacial Impact Crater in Northwest Greenland? [PDF]

open access: yes
Following the discovery of the Hiawatha impact crater beneath the northwest margin of the Greenland Ice Sheet, we explored satellite and aerogeophysical data in search of additional such craters.

Response time sensitivity of glaciers using the open global glacier model

open access: yes, 2020
Shrinking glaciers are an iconic impact of past and ongoing climate change. Since glaciers adjust slowly to a changing climate, there is an imbalance between the current climate and their geometry: Present and future glacier extent largely depends on past climate variability, turning glaciers into a "delayed" sensor of climate change. A measure that is

Snow cover modeling on glaciers

open access: yes, 2017
With the growing importance of the earth’s climate and how it is evolving over recent decades, glaciers, since they are good indicators of predominant climate conditions, are of growing interest for scientific research. One of the most meaningful variables describing a glaciers development is its mass balance.
