Abstract Calving is a critical factor in the dynamics of marine‐terminating glaciers, yet its long‐term behavior remains poorly understood. Existing models calibrate calving parameters with decadal observational periods and assume they remain constant, effectively overlooking shifts in external drivers like ice mélange. We investigate calving evolution

Controls on ice dynamics of the Greenland ice sheet
In recent decades, the Greenland Ice Sheet has lost mass at an accelerating rate, such that it is now the largest individual cryospheric contributor to global sea level rise. This mass loss occurs as a combination of an increase in the melting of ice at the ice sheet surface as well as increased submarine melting and iceberg calving at marine ...

Continental‐Hemispheric Scale Dust Events Driven by Last Glacial Alpine Ice Sheet Dynamics
Abstract Greenland ice cores demonstrate that transient last glacial cold climate events (stadials) were associated with greatly enhanced atmospheric dust loading. Detailed radiocarbon dating of loess in central Europe reveals concurrent increases in dust activity in dust‐emitting regions.

The Influence of Ocean Swell and Wind Waves on Iceberg Melting
Abstract Free‐floating icebergs are important sources of cold freshwater to the polar oceans, influencing both ocean circulation and climate. The influence of ubiquitous oscillatory flows, like those resulting from local wind‐driven waves and swells, on melting has not been extensively studied.

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

Hydraulic Control of Submarine Glacial Melt in Greenlandic Fjords
Abstract Ocean‐driven submarine basal melt of the Greenland Ice Sheet remains a major source of uncertainty in climate projections of future sea level rise based on ice sheet modeling. State‐of‐the‐art parameterizations focus on the properties of the ocean water reaching the marine‐terminating glaciers, processes at the ice‐ocean interface and ...
