Toward an imminent extinction of Colombian glaciers? [PDF]

, 2017
This study documents the current state of glacier coverage in the Colombian Andes, the glacier shrinkage over the twentieth century and discusses indication of their disappearance in the coming decades.

Exploring the submarine geomorphology of Te Rua-o-te-Moko Fiordland, Aotearoa New Zealand

Frontiers in Earth Science
Temperate fjords serve as key environments for understanding glacial landscape evolution, sedimentary processes, and dynamics. These overdeepened, glacially carved inlets serve as high-resolution repositories of past climate and ice behaviour.

A Generalized Interpolation Material Point Method for Shallow Ice Shelves. 2: Anisotropic Nonlocal Damage Mechanics and Rift Propagation

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021
Ice shelf fracture is responsible for roughly half of Antarctic ice mass loss in the form of calving and can weaken buttressing of upstream ice flow.

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

Remote 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

Bridging worlds

Mètode Science Studies Journal: Annual Review
In high-mountain regions, climate change adaptation represents a major challenge, both now and in the future, particularly in issues related to water management and the continued degradation and loss of glaciers. While scientific knowledge on the subject

Evolving ice fraction in the shallow firn layer of Devon Ice Cap, Canada, between 2012 and 2022

Journal of Glaciology
Firn can store glacial meltwater and delay contribution to sea level rise, but ice layers and ice slabs within the shallow firn layer can impede the downward percolation of melt. Here we report firn conditions along a transect on southwest Devon Ice Cap (

Ice thickness of the northern half of the Patagonia Icefields of South America from high‐resolution airborne gravity surveys

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
We employ high‐resolution, high‐precision, helicopter‐borne gravity observations of the Northern (NPI) and Southern Patagonia Icefields (SPI), South America, to infer ice thickness and bed topography using a three‐dimensional model constrained by Fjord ...

New modeling of the Vostok ice flow line and implication for the glaciological chronology of the Vostok ice core [PDF]

, 2004
International audienceWe have used new spaceborne (elevation) and airborne (ice thickness) data to constrain a 2D1/2 model of snow accumulation and ice flow along the Ridge B‐Vostok station ice flow line (East Antarctica). We show that new evaluations of
