Antarctic fast ice in Terra Nova Bay is crucial for regional climate, ecosystems, and scientific logistics but has recently shown unprecedented decline, impacting operations at Jang Bogo Station. Despite its significance, there remains limited predictive understanding of Antarctic fast ice dynamics, especially regarding thickness and stability, with ...

Glacier‐Atmosphere Interactions and Feedbacks in High‐Mountain Regions ‐ A Review
Abstract Mountain glaciers are among the natural systems most vulnerable to climate change. However, their interactions with the atmosphere are complex and not fully understood. These interactions can trigger rapid adjustments and climate feedbacks that either amplify or attenuate atmospheric signals, influencing both glacier response and large‐scale ...

We developed a tilt sensor for studying ice deformation and installed our tilt sensor systems in two boreholes drilled close to the shear margin of Jarvis Glacier, Alaska to obtain kinematic measurements of streaming ice.

Abstract The unexpected collapse of the Marmolada Glacier in the Italian Alps on 3 July 2022, caused 11 fatalities and emphasized the need for a deeper understanding of unstable glaciers. In response, we initiated a radar monitoring campaign to assess the stability of the remaining ice cliff and obtained a near‐continuous data set of displacement at ...

Signal characteristics of surface seismic explosive sources near the West Antarctic Ice Sheet divide
Seismic imaging in 3-D holds great potential for improving our understanding of ice sheet structure and dynamics. Conducting 3-D imaging in remote areas is simplified by using lightweight and logistically straightforward sources.

Automatic measurement of glacier ice ablation using thermistor strings
In this work we tested the suitability of thermistor strings as automatic tools for the continuous measurement of glacier ice ablation. Experimental data collected in summer 2017 over an Italian glacier provided ice ablation readings with accuracy ...

High‐resolution PlanetScope imagery reveals seasonal variations in proglacial lake area are underestimated by ~7% in moderate‐resolution data, while use of a single summer image can underestimate annual maximum area by ~2%. Capturing these seasonal variations provides valuable insights into the factors driving lake dynamics at Fjallsárlón, Iceland ...

Instruments and methods: hot-water borehole drilling at a high-elevation debris-covered glacier
While hot-water drilling is a well-established technique used to access the subsurface of ice masses, drilling into high-elevation (≳ 4000 m a.s.l.) debris-covered glaciers faces specific challenges. First, restricted transport capacity limits individual

Background Existing instruments used in health economics to measure health-related quality of life (HRQoL) have been criticized as they might not sufficiently reflect the HRQoL impacts of mental health problems.
