3.5-Year Monitoring of 225 GHz Opacity at the Summit of Greenland [PDF]
We present the 3.5-yr monitoring results of 225 GHz opacity at the summit of the Greenland ice sheet (Greenland Summit Camp) at an altitude of 3200 m using a tipping radiometer. We chose this site as our submillimeter telescope (Greenland Telescope; GLT) site, because its location offers favorable baselines to existing submillimeter telescopes for ...

Behavioral Response Study on Seismic Airgun and Vessel Exposures in Narwhals
One of the last pristine marine soundscapes, the Arctic, is exposed to increasing anthropogenic activities due to climate-induced decrease in sea ice coverage. In this study, we combined movement and behavioral data from animal-borne tags in a controlled

A new Greenland ice core chronology for the last glacial termination
[1] We present a new common stratigraphic timescale for the North Greenland Ice Core Project (NGRIP) and GRIP ice cores. The timescale covers the period 7.9–14.8 kyr before present and includes the Bolling, Allerod, Younger Dryas, and early Holocene ...

Antarctica's vegetation in a changing climate
Antarctica's unique terrestrial ecosystems are changing with significant impact on the local vegetation. Change is manifold and includes alterations in abiotic and biotic interactions. How the vegetation will respond is still unclear. Abstract Antarctica plays a central role in regulating global climatic and oceanographic patterns and is an integral ...

Effect of ice sheet thickness on formation of the Hiawatha impact crater [PDF]
The discovery of a large putative impact crater buried beneath Hiawatha Glacier along the margin of the northwestern Greenland Ice Sheet has reinvigorated interest into the nature of large impacts into thick ice masses. This circular structure is relatively shallow and exhibits a small central uplift, whereas a peak-ring morphology is expected.
