Update of annual calving front lines for 47 marine terminating outlet glaciers in Greenland (1999–2018)

Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2019
The Greenland ice sheet has been losing mass in response to increased surface melting (Khan et al. 2015; van den Broeke et al. 2017) as well as discharge of ice from marine terminating outlet glaciers (van den Broeke et al. 2009; Box et al. 2018). Marine

Chemical species spatial distribution and relationship to elevation and snow accumulation rate over the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]

, 1996
Major chemical species (Cl−, NO−3, SO2−4, Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+) from 24 snowpits (sampled at a resolution of 3 cm, total 2995 samples) collected from northern, central, and southern Greenland were used for this investigation.

Rainfall and Rain‐on‐Snow Events Over Greenland in Summer: Climatology, Trends, Synoptics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Rain‐on‐snow (ROS) events in the Arctic can lead to major impacts on the snow cover, cryosphere and environment. During the last decades, these events have significantly increased, mostly due to climate change. Here, we use outputs from the regional climate model MAR (version 3.14) driven by the ERA5 reanalysis at 10‐km resolution over ...

Subglacial valleys preserved in the highlands of south and east Greenland record restricted ice extent during past warmer climates [PDF]

The Cryosphere
The Greenland Ice Sheet is a key contributor to contemporary global sea level rise, but its long-term history and response to episodes of warming in Earth's geological past remain uncertain.

Spatial variations in snowpack chemistry and isotopic composition of NO3- along a nitrogen deposition gradient in West Greenland [PDF]

, 2017
Snowpack chemistry, nitrate stable isotopes and net deposition fluxes for the largest ice-free region in Greenland were investigated to determine whether there are spatial gradients from the ice sheet margin to the coast linked to a gradient in ...

Retracing the Response of Rangifer to Postglacial Climate Change in Arctic Islands

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Our study examines the role of sea ice and glacial retreat in shaping the biogeography of Rangifer tarandus across Arctic islands since the last glacial period. Using mitochondrial DNA analysis and approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) modelling, we found that Arctic island dispersal occurred during the Holocene, with sea ice cover likely influencing ...

East Greenland Ice Sheet retreat history from Scoresby Sund and Storstrømmen Glacier during the last deglaciation [PDF]

Climate of the Past
The lack of geological constraints on past ice-sheet change in marine-based sectors of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) following the Last Glacial Maximum limits our ability to assess (1) the drivers of ice-sheet change, and (2) the performance of ice ...

Development of a Climate-Data Record (CDR) of the Surface Temperature of the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]

, 2010
Regional "clear sky" surface temperature increases since the early 1980s in the Arctic, measured using Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) infrared data, range from 0.57+/-0.02 deg C to 72+/-0.10 deg C per decade.

Experimental evidence that microbial activity lowers the albedo of glaciers [PDF]

, 2016
Darkening of glacier and ice sheet surfaces is an important positive feedback to increasing global temperatures. Deposition of impurities on glaciers is primarily believed to reduce surface albedo, resulting in greater melt and mass loss.

New Zealand Geological Timescale 2025

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
New Zealand Geological Timescale 2025 (NZGT 2025) is the first comprehensive update and revision of the New Zealand Geological Timescale in a decade. The criteria used to establish age ranges of New Zealand Stages within the NZGT have been reviewed, calibrated, and revised where required against the 2023/04 International Chronostratigraphic Chart and ...
