A novel tilt sensor for studying ice deformation: application to streaming ice on Jarvis Glacier, Alaska

Journal of Glaciology, 2020
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.

Impacts of glacier retreat, greening, and a changing sediment supply on debris flows in contrasting monsoon‐dominated Himalayan climates

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 7, July 2026.
We modified the SedCas model to assess how glacier retreat, vegetation growth, and sediment availability and erosion timing affect debris flow activity in Langtang and Mustang, Nepal. Results reveal that landscape change reduces sediment supply and runoff response, making debris flows smaller and less seasonally concentrated under future conditions ...

Instruments and methods: hot-water borehole drilling at a high-elevation debris-covered glacier

Journal of Glaciology, 2019
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

Deglaciation of the Burren glacio‐karst, western Ireland, during Termination 1: Implications for North Atlantic climate and karstification

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 702-715, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The Burren uplands in western Ireland form one of the most extensive and best‐preserved examples of glacio‐karst in Europe. Subsumed by the Irish ice sheet during the Late Pleistocene, granite erratic boulders and in situ silica veins in the limestone bedrock provide a rare opportunity to reconstruct the timing and rate of deglaciation ...

Capturing the Multi‐Decadal Evolution of Glacier–Permafrost Interactions in a High‐Alpine Environment (Ritord, Western Swiss Alps)

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 473-497, July/September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the multi‐decadal evolution of a glacier forefield under permafrost conditions in the Combins Massif (western Swiss Alps). A multi‐method approach based on historical and recent datasets is used to analyze its landform components.

Dynamic Deglacial Evolution of Interior Seaways and Ice Streams in the Weddell Sea Embayment

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Improving our understanding of Antarctic glacial dynamics is essential for accurately predicting ice sheet behavior and its contribution to global sea level rise under future climate scenarios. The Weddell Sea Embayment, which channels ice from East Antarctica, West Antarctica, and the Antarctic Peninsula into the Filchner‐Ronne Ice Shelf, is ...

Instruments and methods: Submersible remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) for investigations of the glacier-ocean-sediment interface

, 1996
Submersible remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) are valuable research tools for data collection in dangerous or inaccessible environments associated with glaciers terminating in the sea.

Flow‐pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet indicated by the subglacial lineation record over Norway, Sweden and Finland

Boreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 612-669, July 2026.
We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...

Probing the firn refractive index profile using antenna response

Journal of Glaciology
The Radio Neutrino Observatory-Greenland (RNO-G, at Summit Station) experiment comprises an extensive fat-dipole antenna array deployed into ice boreholes over an eventual area of approximately 35 km2.

Thorncliffe Formation: A proglacial to subglacial lacustrine basin sequence, Greater Toronto Region, Canada

Boreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 717-750, July 2026.
Map of Lower sediment (LS) thickness is a surrogate for the distribution of Thorncliffe Formation (TF) and ~75% of TF thickness from the slope of Niagara Escarpment east to Brighton. Inset images show the LS sequence at the Don Valleys brickyards (DVBY) and undeformed TF sand and gravel (~15 m) below Newmarket Till (NT) at sites L and Co.
