Response of Marine‐Terminating Glaciers to Forcing: Time Scales, Sensitivities, Instabilities, and Stochastic Dynamics [PDF]
Recent observations indicate that many marine‐terminating glaciers in Greenland and Antarctica are currently retreating and thinning, potentially due to long‐term trends in climate forcing.

A note on hysteresis in glaciology
Recent studies on the mechanism governing the Laurentide ice sheet oscillations of the Last Ice Age focus on the most critical effect of the basal hydraulic processes enhanced when the ice is sliding along soft deformable beds. To understand the import of this, we consider {A. C. Fowler} and \textit{C. Johnson}'s 0-D hydrological flow model [J. Glaciol.

Modeling of ocean‐induced ice melt rates of five west Greenland glaciers over the past two decades
High‐resolution, three‐dimensional simulations from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology general circulation model ocean model are used to calculate the subaqueous melt rate of the calving faces of Umiamako, Rinks, Kangerdlugssup, Store, and ...

Formation of Structure in Snowfields: Penitentes, Suncups, and Dirt Cones [PDF]
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

ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE RUSSIAN LANGUAGES LITERATURE ON GLACIOLOGY FOR 2016
The proposed annual bibliography continues annotated lists of the Russian‑language literature on glaciology that were regularly published in the past. It includes 345 references grouped into the following ten sections: 1) general issues of glaciology; 2)

We investigated mass balance changes over five ice rises in the last few decades near Fimbul and Nivl ice shelves in central Dronning Maud Land. We use the Input-Output Method constrained using field-based geophysical measurements conducted during the ...
