Insights From Two Decades of Seismicity at Columbia Glacier

Geophysical Research Letters
We use Columbia Glacier as a case study to demonstrate how seismically cataloged calving events in Alaska can track glacier evolution over two decades. By combining this catalog—a serendipitous byproduct of earthquake monitoring—with terminus positions ...

Seasonal Predictions and Their Applications in the Mediterranean Region: Part II—Prediction‐Based Services

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This review explores climate predictions as actionable decision‐making tools, focusing on the Mediterranean. It examines transforming forecasts into user‐defined information through bias adjustment, downscaling and impact models. Highlighting collaborative EU initiatives, it addresses challenges like limited forecasting skill and data accessibility ...

Long‐Term Variability and Spatial Differentiation of the Frost‐Free Period in Iceland

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Warming in Iceland (May–September) is expressed as fewer Tmin < 0°C days in the interior and more Tmin > 0°C days along the coasts. ABSTRACT Climate change in subarctic regions leads to significant transformations in thermal conditions; however, the long‐term variability of the frost‐free season (FFS)—and consequently, the growing period—remains poorly

Decoupling climate and human impacts on the nitrogen cycle during the Irish Bronze Age

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disentangling climate variability and human activity in past nitrogen cycling is key to understanding ecosystems. Previous studies in Ireland observed a widespread, permanent shift in terrestrial nitrogen cycling during Later Prehistory, potentially linked to intensifying land‐use.

Updating Norway’s glacial lake extents in 2023–2024 using Sentinel-1 & Sentinel-2 data and machine learning

Journal of Glaciology
Glacial lakes are increasing in number and size worldwide, posing growing risks for outburst floods. Norway’s last glacial lake inventory used semi-automatic mapping on Sentinel-2 imagery from 2018–19.

A wireless sensor network system deployment for detecting stick slip motion in glaciers

, 2012
The behaviour of glaciers is an area in which only limited research has been carried out due to the difficulties of monitoring sub-glacial movements.

Insights into Red Deer Ecology during the Late Epigravettian: New isotopic evidence from Riparo Tagliente (Italian Prealps)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Late Glacial marked a shift from the cold conditions of Greenland Stadial‐2 (GS‐2) to the warmer phases of Greenland Interstadial‐1 (GI‐1), enabling the reoccupation of Alpine regions by Late Palaeolithic hunter‐gatherers.

High-Temporal-Resolution Three-Dimensional Glacier Velocity Time Series and Their Implications for Glacier Dynamic Processes in Mt. Tomur, Tian Shan

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
High-temporal-resolution three-dimensional (3-D) glacier velocity measurements are essential for unraveling complex ice dynamics, enabling precise monitoring of climate-driven glacier response.

Estimating Relative Surface Ages and Wetting Histories in Ice-Free Antarctic Regions Using Geochemical Analysis of soils [PDF]

, 2017
The ice-free regions of Antarctica are polar deserts where atmospheric aerosols are deposited and can accumulate over time in the surface soils. The McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDV) are the largest ice-free area on the continent and contain soils ranging in age
