Book review: K. Hutter, 2020. Fundamental Glaciology: modelling thermomechanical processes of ice in the geophysical environment, engineering and material science. International Glaciological Society

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2021
Kolumban Hutter ’ s new text ‘ Fundamental glaciology ’ departs from established norms in glacier science; sets a new standard for glacier mechanics; and deftly collects flow and fracture under one roof.

Changes in the Structure of the Snow Cover of Hansbreen (S Spitsbergen) Derived from Repeated High-Frequency Radio-Echo Sounding

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
This paper explores the potential of ground-penetrating radar (GPR) monitoring for an advanced understanding of snow cover processes and structure. For this purpose, the study uses the Hansbreen (SW Spitsbergen) records that are among the longest and the

Hydraulic and mechanical properties of glacial sediments beneath Unteraargletscher, Switzerland: implications for glacier basal motion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The force on a ‘ploughmeter’ and subglacial water pressure have been measured in the same borehole at Unteraargletscher, Switzerland, in order to investigate ice–sediment coupling and the motion at the base of a soft-bedded glacier.

Application of the radionuclide 210Pb in glaciology – an overview

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Englacial Pore Water Localizes Shear in Temperate Ice Stream Margins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The margins of fast‐moving ice streams are characterized by steep velocity gradients. Some of these gradients cannot be explained by a temperature‐dependent viscosity alone.

Airborne Validation of ICESat-2 ATLAS Data over Crevassed Surfaces and Other Complex Glacial Environments: Results from Experiments of Laser Altimeter and Kinematic GPS Data Collection from a Helicopter over a Surging Arctic Glacier (Negribreen, Svalbard)

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The topic of this paper is the airborne evaluation of ICESat-2 Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) measurement capabilities and surface-height-determination over crevassed glacial terrain, with a focus on the geodetical accuracy of ...

Sub-debris melt rates on southern Inylchek Glacier, central Tian Shan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Melt rates of glacier surfaces are strongly influenced by the existence of a debris cover. Dependent on thickness and other physical parameters the debris layer can enhance or reduce ablation as compared to bare ice conditions.
