An Unprecedented Sea Ice Retreat in the Weddell Sea Driving an Overall Decrease of the Antarctic Sea‐Ice Extent Over the 20th Century

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Sea‐ice extent is predicted to decrease in a warming climate. However, despite global warming over the past century, total Antarctic sea ice remained relatively stable from 1979 until 2015, before strongly melting.

Dynamics of colloidal particles in ice [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics, 2011
We use x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) to probe the dynamics of colloidal particles in polycrystalline ice. During freezing, the dendritic ice morphology and rejection of particles from the ice created regions of high particle density, where some of the colloids were forced into contact and formed disordered aggregates.

The internal structure of the Brunt Ice Shelf from ice-penetrating radar analysis and implications for ice shelf fracture [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
The rate and direction of rift propagation through ice shelves depend on both the stress field and the heterogeneity (or otherwise) of the physical properties of the ice.

An Age Scale for the First Shallow (Sub-)Antarctic Ice Core from Young Island, Northwest Ross Sea

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
The climate of the sub-Antarctic is important in understanding the environmental conditions of Antarctica and the Southern Ocean. However, regional climate proxy records from this region are scarce.

Evidence for dynamic kagome ice [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
AbstractThe search for two-dimensional quantum spin liquids, exotic magnetic states remaining disordered down to zero temperature, has been a great challenge in frustrated magnetism over the last few decades. Recently, evidence for fractionalized excitations, called spinons, emerging from these states has been observed in kagome and triangular ...

Morphology and Dynamics of Ice Rises [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1980
AbstractProfile surveys are presented of four ice rises on the east coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. On Butler Island velocity measurements were also made. The ice rises behave as miniature ice caps frozen to flat horizontal bedrock and provide a simple system for the study of laws of ice flow. Deformation is principally by shear through the ice mass.

First evidence of industrial fly-ash in an Antarctic ice core

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Spheroidal carbonaceous particles (SCPs) are a component of fly-ash, the particulate by-product of industrial high temperature combustion of fuel-oil and coal-series fuels.

Stochastic ice stream dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2016
Significance Ice streams form the backbone of the flow field of ice sheets. They are known to exhibit a complex spatiotemporal dynamics, which is largely not well understood. Understanding the controls on such dynamics is crucial to sea level change projections as well as to the interpretation of paleorecords.

Dynamic Ic and Dynamic Programming [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2019
This paper develops a dynamic programming method when the one-stage deviation principle in the sense of mechanism design literature doesn’t hold. The commonly used dynamic programming method is valid only if the one-stage deviation principle in the sense of mechanism design literature is satisfied; it doesn't hold in every model, and the one-stage ...

Brief communication: Reduced bandwidth improves the depth limit of the radar coherence method for detecting ice crystal fabric asymmetry [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Ice crystal orientation fabric strongly affects the viscous deformation of glacier ice. A popular technique to investigate ice fabric is radar polarimetry, often analysed using the coherence method.
