Ice sheets as a significant source of highly reactive nanoparticulate iron to the oceans
The Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets cover ~\n10% of global land surface, but are rarely considered as active components of the global iron cycle. The ocean waters around both ice sheets harbour highly productive coastal ecosystems, many of which are ...

Polarimetric Scattering Model for Methane Bubbles Trapped in the Ice of Sub-Artic Lakes
In this work we propose a model for the polarimetric backscattering of shallow sub-arctic lakes, which are frozen usually up to two meters depth during winter.

Surface ocean circulation and organic carbon export across the mid-Pleistocene climate transition [PDF]
The mid-Pleistocene climate transition (MPT) marks a change in the nature of the climate system response to external forcing by insolation. This is represented first by the expansion of the northern hemisphere ice-sheets ca. 920 ka, and the emergence and

Facing future climate change: is the past relevant?
From a socio-economic perspective, the ‘sharp end’ of climate research is very much about looking forward in time. As far as possible, we need to know what to expect and approximately when to expect it.
