Response of a marine-terminating Greenland outlet glacier to abrupt cooling 8200 and 9300 years ago [PDF]
, 2011 Long-term records of Greenland outlet-glacier change extending beyond the satellite era can inform future predictions of Greenland Ice Sheet behavior. Of particular relevance is elucidating the Greenland Ice Sheet's response to decadal- and centennial ...

Variations of Mass Balance of the Greenland Ice Sheet from 2002 to 2019
Remote Sensing, 2020 The melting of the polar ice caps is considered to be an essential factor for global sea-level rise and has received significant attention. Quantitative research on ice cap mass changes is critical in global climate change.

Regression Networks For Calculating Englacial Layer Thickness [PDF]
, 2021 Ice thickness estimation is an important aspect of ice sheet studies. In this work, we use convolutional neural networks with multiple output nodes to regress and learn the thickness of internal ice layers in Snow Radar images collected in northwest Greenland. We experiment with some state-of-the-art networks and find that with the residual connections

MIS-11 duration key to disappearance of the Greenland ice sheet [PDF]
, 2017 Palaeo data suggest that Greenland must have been largely ice free during Marine Isotope Stage 11 (MIS-11). However, regional summer insolation anomalies were modest during this time compared to MIS-5e, when the Greenland ice sheet likely lost less ...

Effects of extreme melt events on ice flow and sea level rise of the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2023 Over the past decade, Greenland has experienced several extreme melt events, the most pronounced ones in the years 2010, 2012 and 2019. With progressing climate change, such extreme melt events can be expected to occur more frequently and potentially ...

Recent Progress in Greenland Ice Sheet Modelling. [PDF]
Curr Clim Change Rep, 2017 This paper reviews the recent literature on numerical modelling of the dynamics of the Greenland ice sheet with the goal of providing an overview of advancements and to highlight important directions of future research. In particular, the review is focused on large-scale modelling of the ice sheet, including future projections, model parameterisations,

Deglaciation of Fennoscandia [PDF]
, 2015 To provide a new reconstruction of the deglaciation of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet, in the form of calendar-year time-slices, which are particularly useful for ice sheet modelling, we have compiled and synthesized published geomorphological data for ...

Dynamics of Crystal Formation in the Greenland NorthGRIP Ice Core [PDF]
J. Glaciology 50, 325 (2004), 2003 The North Greenland Ice Core Project (NorthGRIP) provides paleoclimatic information back to at about 120 kyr before present (Dahl-Jensen and others, 2002). Each year, precipitation on the ice sheet covers it with a new layer of snow, which gradually transforms into ice crystals as the layer sinks into the ice sheet.

Preservation of a Preglacial Landscape Under the Center of the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]
, 2014 Continental ice sheets typically sculpt landscapes via erosion; under certain conditions, ancient landscapes can be preserved beneath ice and can survive extensive and repeated glaciation.

On the long-term memory of the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2011 [1] In this study, the memory of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GIS) with respect to its past states is analyzed. According to ice core reconstructions, the present-day GIS reflects former climatic conditions dating back to at least 250 thousand years before the present (kyr BP). This fact must be considered when initializing an ice sheet model.
