Quaternary glaciation history and glaciology of Jakobshavn Isbræ and the Disko Bugt region, [PDF]
The Disko Bugt region in central West Greenland is characterised by permanent ice streams, of which Jakobshavn Isbræ is by far the most important. The first thorough studies on the glaciology of the region were conducted over 150 years ago by H.J.
