137CS gamma-ray detection at Summit, Greenland [PDF]
Global fall-out from atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons produced horizon markers corresponding to the initiation of testing in 1953 and the maximum fall-out in 1963.

ABSTRACT The sediment signature of glacial erosion products exported from Hudson Strait to the Labrador Sea during Hudson Strait Heinrich (HS‐H) events is evaluated using four distinct proxies: paired δ18Ο and δ13C data on the carbonate fraction, εNd and U–Pb isotopes in the silicate fraction, the mineral composition of the <2 mm bulk sediment fraction,

Glaciological research in Antarctica
During 1991 and 1992 the Geological Survey of Greenland (GGU) was observer on behalf of the Danish Polar Center in and preparation of a common Nordic research effort in Antarctica. The Nordic Antarctic Research Programme (NARP) involves Norway, Sweden and Finland, which are all Antarctic Treaty Consultative Partners, whereas Denmark is an observer.

Stable water isotopes and the physical environment
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 ...

Distributed acoustic sensing of microseismic sources and wave propagation in glaciated terrain
In this study, Walter and colleagues deploy a 1 km long fiber optics cable on a glacier surface. Via the use of distributed acoustic sensing, the authors are capable of monitoring glacier dynamics and Alpine mass movements.

ABSTRACT Land degradation poses significant challenges to maintaining food–water–energy (FWE) security, particularly in rapidly urbanizing regions. The ecosystem services (ES) related to FWE are critical for sustainable regional development. Yet, rapid urbanization in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei region has altered land use and ecological patterns ...

This study analyzed the impact of two mesoscale cyclones on the meteorology and glaciology of South Shetland Islands (SSI) glaciers, using in‐situ observations, ERA5 reanalysis data, and high‐resolution weather and glacier mass balance models. Mesoscale cyclones drive temperature drops, heavy snowfall, and strong winds over the SSI, significantly ...
