Constraining the geothermal heat flux in Greenland at regions of radar-detected basal water

Journal of Glaciology, 2019
The spatial distribution of basal water critically impacts the evolution of ice sheets. Current estimates of basal water distribution beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) contain large uncertainties due to poorly constrained boundary conditions ...

Sampling Biases in Daily Average Temperatures From Greenland Climate Records

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 7, 15 June 2026.
Biases are introduced in the calculation of daily average temperatures due to uneven sampling times for the investigated weather station network in Greenland. The figure shows the network, an example of a daily temperature cycle with daily averages based on all or only two observations and an overview of how the number of observations per day changes ...

Greenland ice sheet

, 2013
Forty marine-terminating glaciers have been surveyed daily since 2000 using cloud-free MODIS visible imagery (Box and Decker 2011; http://bprc. osu.edu/MODIS/). The net area change of the 40 glaciers during the period of observation has been -1775 km2, with the 18 northernmost (>72°N) glaciers alone contributing to half of the net area change.

Lake Diatoms as a Proxy for Holocene Environmental Change, West Greenland [PDF]

, 2013
There is great interest over the Greenland Ice Sheet in terms of future climate change, though there is a lack of understanding of climate change during the Holocene.

A Greenland-wide empirical reconstruction of paleo ice sheet retreat informed by ice extent markers: PaleoGrIS version 1.0 [PDF]

Climate of the Past
The Greenland Ice Sheet is a large contributor to global sea level rise, and current mass losses are projected to accelerate. However, model projections of future ice sheet evolution are limited by the fact that the ice sheet is not in equilibrium with ...

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

Assessment of current methods of positive degree-day calculation using in situ observations from glaciated regions [PDF]

, 2015
The continued use of the Positive Degree-Day (PDD) method to predict ice sheet melt is generally favoured over surface energy balance methods partly due to the computational efficiency of the algorithm and the requirement of only one input variable ...

Seasonal Ice Dynamics Control the Timing of Crevasse Drainage at a Fast‐Flowing Outlet Glacier

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Crevasse field drainage transfers at least half of the seasonal runoff from the surface to the bed of the Greenland Ice Sheet, but the patterns of drainage are complex and spatio‐temporally heterogenous. To better understand controls on crevasse drainage processes, we use an automated deep learning method to map the seasonal filling and ...

Missing Summer Westerly Jet Barotropic Governor Effect Explains Climate Models—Observation Discrepancies in the Indian Monsoon Trends

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract The South Asian summer monsoon has exhibited a pronounced Northwest India‐Indo‐Gangetic Plains rainfall dipole since 1999, with northwest India experiencing a 24.6% increase, while rainfall in the Indo‐Gangetic Plain has decreased by 4.4%.

How Greenland melts

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2010
Satellite altimetry and gravimetry show that the Greenland ice sheet has been losing volume and mass since the beginning of this century. However, from these short time series of direct measurements we cannot infer what the causes of the mass loss are, i.
