Application of the radionuclide 210Pb in glaciology – an overview
Journal of Glaciology, 2020 210Pb is an environmental radionuclide with a half-life of 22.3 years, formed in the atmosphere via radioactive decay of radon (222Rn). 222Rn itself is a noble gas with a half-life of 3.8 days and is formed via radioactive decay of uranium (238U ...

Data assimilation in glaciology [PDF]
, 2014 Abstract This chapter addresses an inverse problem in glaciology, namely how to infer a climatic scenario (i.e. how to reconstruct past polar temperature) from ice volume records. Ice volume observations are available from oceanic records, giving information about sea level, and therefore about the amount of water stored in ice sheets ...

PyTrx: A Python-Based Monoscopic Terrestrial Photogrammetry Toolset for Glaciology
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 Terrestrial time-lapse photogrammetry is a rapidly growing method for deriving measurements from glacial environments because it provides high spatio-temporal resolution records of change.

The K-transect in west Greenland: Automatic weather station data (1993–2016)
Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2018 We present twenty-three years (1993–2016) of automatic weather station (AWS) data, collected along the K-transect near Kangerlussuaq in west Greenland. The transect runs from east to west, roughly perpendicular to the ice sheet edge at about 67° N. The K-

Distributed acoustic sensing of microseismic sources and wave propagation in glaciated terrain
Nature Communications, 2020 In this study, Walter and colleagues deploy a 1 km long fiber optics cable on a glacier surface. Via the use of distributed acoustic sensing, the authors are capable of monitoring glacier dynamics and Alpine mass movements.

Grounding‐Zone Flow Variability of Priestley Glacier, Antarctica, in a Diurnal Tidal Regime
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Tidal modulation of ice streams and their adjacent ice shelves is a real‐world experiment to understand ice‐dynamic processes. We observe the dynamics of Priestley Glacier, Antarctica, using Terrestrial Radar Interferometry (TRI) and GNSS.
