Inland thinning of the Amundsen Sea sector, West Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
[1] Together with the Pine Island glacier (PIG), the Thwaites (TG) and Smith (SG) glaciers are the principal drainage systems of the Amundsen Sea (AS) sector of Western Antarctica.

The K-transect in west Greenland: Automatic weather station data (1993–2016)

open access: yesArctic, 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-

Mapping Surface Flow Velocity of Glaciers at Regional Scale Using a Multiple Sensors Approach

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
We explore and compare the capabilities and limitations of different optical sensors (Sentinel-2/ESA, Landsat 7/8/USGS, Ven μ s/CNES-ISA, Pléiades/AirbusD&S and Planet Labs images) for mapping the surface speeds of mountain glaciers on ...

A multidimensional approach to knowledge coproduction in glaciology

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
This work presents a reflection on the meaning and significance of knowledge coproduction in the field of glaciology. We start by invoking the paradigm of Structure–Form–Environment Interplay (SFEI) to formulate a generalised definition of glaciology ...

Glacier changes in the Bavarian Alps from 1989/90 to 2006/07 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The five glaciers in Bavaria which today cover a total area of less than one square kilometer were frequently monitored by geodetic methods from the mid of the 20th century. In this paper, the record is extended by new surveys in 1999 and 2006.

The Debeli Namet glacier (Durmitor, Montenegro) – from the second half of the 20th century to the present

open access: yesActa Geographica Slovenica, 2012
The Debeli Namet glacier is one of two recent glaciers located in the south western Balkans, located on Durmitor Mountain in the south eastern Dinarides mountain range in Montenegro and is considered to be a small glacier.

Structural Evolution During Cyclic Glacier Surges: 1. Structural Glaciology of Trapridge Glacier, Yukon, Canada

open access: yesJournal 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]

open access: yes, 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.

Lateglacial and Holocene mountain glacier fluctuations near Cape Farewell South Greenland inferred from 10Be moraine dating

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report 43 new 10Be exposure ages and six 26Al/10Be measurements from replicates from a small piedmont mountain glacier located at Cape Farewell (south Greenland) and temperature anomalies estimated from equilibrium‐line altitude (ELA) changes derived from 3D glacier reconstruction carried out using the ‘GlaRe’ toolbox.

Quasi-static granular flow of ice mélange [PDF]

open access: yes, 1936
We use Landsat 8 imagery to generate ice mélange velocity fields at Greenland’s three most productive outlet glaciers: Jakobshavn Isbræ, Helheim Glacier, and Kangerdlugssuaq Glacier.
