Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Abstract Sea ice is situated close to the termini of many outlet glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic and has the potential to influence their dynamics and, therefore, their contribution to sea level rise. However, the nature, prevalence, and ice‐dynamic significance of sea ice‐glacier interactions remains subject to several open questions.

Variable Sensitivity of Lake Surface Temperatures to Short‐ and Long‐Term Atmospheric Warming
Abstract Thermal sensitivity represents the magnitude of water temperature association to changes in air temperature (AT), yet global patterns in the responsiveness of lake surface water temperature (LSWT) to atmospheric warming at different temporal scales remain poorly characterized.

Does Geocentric Sea‐Level Rise in the Maritime Continent Reveal a Tectonic Fingerprint?
Abstract The islands of the Maritime Continent are highly vulnerable to sea‐level rise driven by barystatic, sterodynamic, and vertical land motion (VLM) processes. While tectonics is known to affect relative sea‐level through VLM, its influence on long‐term geocentric sea level (GSL) through crustal deformation and gravity field perturbations remains ...

Abstract Subglacial processes are key to glacier dynamics but remain poorly constrained due to limited in situ observations. We use continuous seismic and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measurements to investigate summer basal conditions at Sermeq Kujalleq in Kangia (SKK; Jakobshavn Isbræ), Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland).

Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission promises quasi‐global monitoring of glacial lakes, yet the elevation difference arising from its Ka‐band radar penetrating lake snow/ice cover remains unquantified. This poses a challenge to assessing their level changes.

Evidence of local and regional freshening of Northeast Greenland coastal waters
The supply of freshwater to fjord systems in Greenland is increasing as a result of climate change-induced acceleration in ice sheet melt. However, insight into the marine implications of the melt water is impaired by lack of observations demonstrating ...

Clouds enhance Greenland ice sheet meltwater runoff
Clouds play a pivotal role in the energy and mass balance of the Greenland ice sheet, thereby affecting its contribution to global sea-level rise. Here, using a combination of observations and model simulations, the authors show that clouds enhance ...
