Origin and significance of 'dispersed facies' basal ice: Svínafellsjökull, Iceland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Dispersed facies basal ice - massive (i.e. structureless) ice with dispersed debris aggregates - is present at the margins of many glaciers and, as a product of internal glacial processes, has the potential to provide important information about the ...

A Turbulence‐Informed Parameterization of Phase Partitioning in Stratiform Mixed‐Phase Clouds for the LMDZ Model

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract High‐latitude clouds, present over the Arctic Ocean, the Southern Ocean and the Antarctic continent, are very often mixed‐phase clouds (MPCs), that is, composed of both supercooled liquid droplets and ice crystals. Despite being essential for the climate of the poles, they remain a major modeling challenge for climate models. In this study, we

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
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 ...

The Influence of Sea Ice and Ice Mélange on Outlet Glacier Dynamics in the Arctic and Antarctic: Recent Progress and Future Challenges

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
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.

Unilateral Action on Climate Change and the Moral Obligation to Take Leadership

open access: yesJournal of Social Philosophy, Volume 57, Issue 2, Page 219-229, Summer 2026.
ABSTRACT We claim that a moral obligation to take climate leadership by means of unilateral mitigation depends on the existence of a plausible follow‐the‐leader mechanism whereby unilateral mitigation by some increases the probability of sufficient mitigation by others to avert catastrophic climate impacts.

The Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) for the base of the Holocene Series/Epoch (Quaternary System/Period) in the NGRIP ice core

open access: yes, 2008
The Greenland ice core from NorthGRIP (NGRIP) contains a proxy climate record across the Pleistocene– Holocene boundary of unprecedented clarity and resolution.

Greenland ice sheet melt area from MODIS (2000–2014)

open access: yes, 2015
The Greenland ice sheet is an excellent observatory for global climate change. Meltwater from the 1.8 million km2 large ice sheet influences oceanic temperature and salinity, nutrient fluxes and global sea level (IPCC 2013). Surface reflectivity is a key

A study of the dynamics of the British Ice Sheet during Marine Isotope Stages 2 and 3, focusing on Heinrich Events 2 and 4 and their relationship to the North Atlantic glaciological and climatological conditions

open access: yes, 2007
A high-resolution investigation into the stratigraphy of core MD95-2006 from the Barra fan, NW Scottish continental slope has been carried out. The study focuses on key palaeoceanographic proxies (percentage Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (s), planktonic ...
