Diffuse optics for glaciology [PDF]
Optics Express, 2021 Optical probing of glaciers has the potential for tremendous impact on environmental science. However, glacier ice is turbid, which prohibits the use of most established optical measurements for determining a glacier's interior structure. Here, we propose a method for determining the depth, scattering and absorption length based upon diffuse ...

For whom and by whom is glaciology? [PDF]
Journal of GlaciologyAbstract Glacier and ice sheet research is frequently justified on the basis of potential benefits to those communities that are most vulnerable to glacier change. In this glaciology research, funding priorities and communication to the broader public are strongly affected by the experiences and values of glaciology researchers.

Formation of Structure in Snowfields: Penitentes, Suncups, and Dirt Cones [PDF]
Physical Review E, vol 63, 056129 2001, 2000 Penitentes and suncups are structures formed as snow melts, typically high in the mountains. When the snow is dirty, dirt cones and other structures can form instead. Building on previous field observations and experiments, this work presents a theory of ablation morphologies, and the role of surface dirt in determining the structures formed.

Reflections On the Anomalous ANITA Events: The Antarctic Subsurface as a Possible Explanation [PDF]
Annals of Glaciology 1--7, 2020, 2019 The ANITA balloon experiment was designed to detect radio signals initiated by neutrinos and cosmic ray air showers. These signals are typically discriminated by the polarization and phase inversions of the radio signal. The reflected signal from cosmic rays suffer phase inversion compared to a direct tau neutrino event.

Stable-isotope ratios (δ18O and δD) in a firn core from West Antarctica [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2023 A 22.48 m long ice core (BR-IC-4) was collected in the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (at 83°58’59.4” S, 80°07’01.4” W, 1,295 m above the sea level) during the Austral summer of 2004–2005, as a contribution to the International Trans-Antarctic Expedition ...

Mass balance of glacier No. 139 in the basin of Lake Karakul in the Eastern Pamirs
Central Asian Journal of Water Research, 2022 Mountain glaciers, including the poorly examined glaciers of Lake Karakul Basin, are considered the most vulnerable part of the cryosphere directly reacting to the changing climatic conditions.
