Assessing the catastrophic break-up of Briksdalsbreen, Norway, associated with rapid climate change

open access: yes, 2011
Recent research has raised concerns about the potential influence of rapid climate change on the stability of major ice sheets. The behaviour of glaciers is determined largely by the processes and conditions operating at their base.

Glacier Defense: A Material Science Proposal

open access: yesEngineered Science
Global warming is accelerating the disappearance of glaciers, with approximately 200,000 glaciers worldwide being affected. In response to these crises, scientists are actively seeking glacier melt interventions, spawning a new discipline, the so-called ...

Glacier or Not? The Importance of Nuance in Definitions of Vanishing Glaciers

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology
Glaciers provide critical ecosystem services, including water resources, biodiversity, cultural value, and climate signals. But what makes a glacier a glacier? Dierent definitions of what characterizes a glacier can conflict with each other. While a common definition emphasizes "past or present flow," practical applications involve various criteria ...

Widespread Black Carbon Deposition of Varied Origin Exported From Glaciers

open access: yes
Atmospheric deposition delivers carbon to glacier surfaces, including from fossil fuel and biomass combustion. Nonetheless, spatial variation in the sources of organic and black carbon deposited on glaciers is poorly understood, along with their role in ...

Assessing glacier retreat and landform production at the ‘debris-charged’ snout of Kvíárjökull, Iceland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Iceland is a critical location for the study of glacier fluctuations and landform production in response to climate change due to its diverse glacial legacy and its archive of aerial photographs that provide accurately dated records of glacier retreat ...
