Resilience and Sustainability Through Interlinkages of Gender, Disaster, and Climate Change: A Systematic Literature Review

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic literature review examines gendered vulnerabilities, adaptive capacities, and policy translation in climate‐change induced disaster research using an intersectional lens in the Web of Science Database. Peer‐reviewed journal articles published in English between 2014 and 2024 focusing on gender, climate change, and disaster were

A century of flow and surge history of Sít’ Tlein (Malaspina Glacier), Southeast Alaska

Journal of Glaciology
Sít’ Tlein (Malaspina Glacier), located in Southeast Alaska, has a complex flow history. This piedmont glacier, the largest in the world, is fed by three main tributaries that all exhibit similar flow patterns, yet with varying surge cycles. The piedmont

Thermal Regulation of Glacier Surging [PDF]

Journal of Glaciology, 1976
AbstractA necessary condition for a glacier to surge by thermal instability is that the glacier be cold with basal ice at or near the melting point. Deep temperature measurements show that two small surge-type glaciers in the Yukon Territory meet this requirement, but shallow measurements in three other surge-type glaciers suggest a temperate regime ...

WAVES OF ACCELERATED MOTION IN A GLACIER APPROACHING SURGE: THE MINI-SURGES OF

, 2014
. Periods of dramatically accelerated motion, in which the flow velocity increases suddenly from about 55 cm/d to a peak of 100-300 cm/d and then decreases gradually over the course of a day, occurred repeatedly during June and July 1978-81 in Variegated

A "HYDRO-THERMAL" INSTABILITY THEORY OF GLACIER SURGES [PDF]

, 1992
P(論文)Glacier surge is a catastrophic glacier advance which can't be explained by variation in climate. We propose a "hydro-thermal instability" model which is capable of explaining surges of an inversion type glacier. An inversion type glacier has a cold

RETRACE Project: How to Enhance Resilience to Climate Risks in Pacific and Arctic Indigenous Communities?

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Risk management has evolved to analyze risks in a systemic way, integrating local knowledge with the abstract concept of resilience, which is now an imperative for vulnerable and exposed communities. However, existing decision‐support tools are mainly focused on technical‐functional aspects and, although based on rigorous and scientific ...

Simulating seasonal evolution of subglacial hydrology at a surging glacier in the Karakoram

Journal of Glaciology
Glacier motion, retreat and glacier hazards such as surges and glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are likely underpinned by subglacial hydrology. Recent advances in subglacial hydrological modeling allow us to shed light on subglacial processes that ...

Surging Glaciers—The Dilemma Continues [PDF]

Journal of Glaciology, 1979
Abstract A glacier surge, according to most definitions, is a short-lived phase of unusually rapid glacier flow, after which the glacier returns to more normal behavior, with the surge–non-surge phases recurring on a regular or periodic basis.

Moral Economies of Debt Forgiveness and Enforcement in Postcrisis Iceland

Economic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Who deserves financial relief in times of crisis, and on what grounds? The 2008 collapse of Iceland's banking system prompted state intervention to mitigate household indebtedness, including forbearance, pension withdrawals, repayment adjustments, and debt reductions.

Utilising seismic station internal GPS for tracking surging glacier sliding velocity

Journal of Glaciology
Glacier ice flux is a key indicator of mass balance; therefore, accurate monitoring of ice dynamics is essential. Satellite-based methods are widely used for glacier velocity measurements but are limited by satellite revisit frequency.
