Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2019 Interpreting the relationships among the internal processes of glaciers and their mesoscale structural products has been a long‐standing challenge for glaciologists. Trapridge Glacier is a small polythermal surge‐type valley glacier that has been studied

A Glaciological perspective on Heinrich events [PDF]
, 1999 Heinrich events, the massive episodic disgorgement of sediment-laden ice from the Laurentide Ice Sheet to the North Atlantic Ocean, are a puzzling instability of the Ice-Age climate system. Although there is broad agreement on the defining characteristics of Heinrich events, the glaciological mechanisms remain controversial.

Retreat of Humboldt Gletscher, North Greenland, Driven by Undercutting From a Warmer Ocean
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Humboldt Gletscher is a 100‐km wide, slow‐moving glacier in north Greenland which holds a 19‐cm global sea level equivalent. Humboldt has been the fourth largest contributor to sea level rise since 1972 but the cause of its mass loss has not been ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Northwest Europe experienced high‐amplitude climate change at the onset and end of the Younger Dryas (YD; ca 12 800–11 600 cal a BP), a crucial period to develop our understanding of natural climate dynamics. European palaeoclimatological records generally suggest a bipartite structure of the YD, potentially due to a northward retreat of the ...

Stable water isotopes and the physical environment
Belgeo, 2002 This paper presents the characteristics of the fractionation of water isotopes which occurs during evaporation and freezing of water. It shows how these characteristics can be used for studying some aspects of the physical environment, namely ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The glaciation of Scotland during the Loch Lomond Stadial (LLS; 12.9–11.7 ka BP) left a distinct and well‐preserved geomorphological signature, permitting detailed reconstructions of former glaciers and palaeoclimatic conditions. However, the extent and style of glaciation in the Southeast Grampians remains poorly constrained.

Hydroclimate variability in the eastern Kimberley, Australia, since the last deglaciation
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.Abstract The climate of the Kimberley region in tropical northwest Australia is dominated by the Indo‐Australian summer monsoon (IASM). Understanding of the palaeoclimate since the Last Glacial Maximum in this region, which is well placed to record IASM variations, is currently based on few records.

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