An integrated Structure-from-Motion and time-lapse technique for quantifying ice-margin dynamics

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2017
Fine resolution topographic data derived from methods such as Structure from Motion (SfM) and Multi-View Stereo (MVS) have the potential to provide detailed observations of geomorphological change, but have thus far been limited by the logistical ...

Velocity estimation in GPR data based on diffraction analysis: Methodology and application to Antarctic firn

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 170-186, April 2026.
Abstract This study presents a methodological framework for estimating electromagnetic wave velocities in ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) data based exclusively on the analysis of diffractions. The approach integrates diffraction separation using the plane wave destruction algorithm and subsequent velocity refinement through the residual diffraction ...

Turbulent snow transport and accumulation: New reduced‐order models and diagnostics

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 152, Issue 776, April 2026 Part A.
Our new reduced‐order models of snow particle transport provide high‐fidelity calculations of snow accumulation in turbulent flows at significantly reduced computational costs. Additional accumulation diagnostics from the reduced‐order model predict complex patterns of particle concentration in turbulent boundary layers via coherent flow structures in ...

Instruments and Methods: A Simple Thermal Ice Drill

open access: yes, 1963
A thermal ice drill using a silicon carbide electrical resistance element has been developed. The silicon carbide element is operated bare in water, permitting a very simple and efficient drill design. Maximum operating power density in these elements is

Lidar-based snow monitoring from aerial lifts: Gondola deployment in the Austrian Alps

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Monitoring snow distribution in alpine terrain is critical for hydrology, avalanche safety, and climate research, yet traditional surveys are costly, hazardous, and spatially sparse.

Development of the British Antarctic Survey Rapid Access Isotope Drill

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2019
The British Antarctic Survey Rapid Access Isotope Drill is an innovative new class of electromechanical ice drill, which has recently been used to drill the deepest dry hole drilled by an electromechanical auger drill. The record-breaking depth of 461.58

Calving of Fuerza Aérea Glacier (Greenwich Island, Antarctica) observed with terrestrial laser scanning and continuous video monitoring

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2016
A short-term series of quantitative observations of calving activity of Fuerza Aérea Glacier (Greenwich Island, the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica) was conducted in order to test new methods of monitoring calving.
