Frontiers in Earth Science, 2019 On April 7, 2016 the Nansen ice shelf (NIS) front calved into two icebergs, the first large-scale calving event in >30 years. Three hydrophone moorings were deployed seaward of the NIS in December 2015 and over the following months recorded hundreds ...

PISM-LakeCC: Implementing an adaptive proglacial lake boundary in an ice sheet model [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2022 During the Late Pleistocene and Holocene retreat of paleo-ice sheets in North America and Europe, vast proglacial lakes existed along the land terminating margins.

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2013 Snow and ice play their most important role in the nitrogen cycle as a barrier to land–atmosphere and ocean–atmosphere exchanges that would otherwise occur. The inventory of nitrogen compounds in the polar ice sheets is approximately 260 Tg N, dominated by nitrate in the much larger Antarctic ice sheet.

The Scandinavian Ice-Sheet [PDF]
Nature, 1894 IN reply to the letter of Prof. T. G. Bonney (NATURE, vol. xlix. p. 338), which I by chance have read to-day, concerning the difficulty of explaining how the Scandinavian land-ice could have crossed the deep channel of Skagerak and Kattegat, and have reached the East Anglian coasts, I should like to remark that this difficulty is not new to me, and ...

Research progress in geophysical exploration of the Antarctic ice sheet
Earthquake Research Advances, 2023 The Antarctic ice sheet is an important target of Antarctic research. Thickness and structure, including intraice and subice, are closely related to the mass balance of the ice sheet, and play an important role in the study of global sea level and ...

The northern sector of the last British ice sheet : maximum extent and demise [PDF]
, 2008 Strongly divided opinion has led to competing, apparently contradictory, views on the timing, extent, flow configuration and decay mechanism of the last British Ice Sheet.

Four decades of Antarctic Ice Sheet mass balance from 1979–2017
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance Statement We evaluate the state of the mass balance of the Antarctic Ice Sheet over the last four decades using a comprehensive, precise satellite record and output products from a regional atmospheric climate model to document its impact on

A rapidly converging initialisation method to simulate the present-day Greenland ice sheet using the GRISLI ice sheet model (version 1.3) [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2019 Providing reliable projections of the ice sheet contribution to future sea-level rise has become one of the main challenges of the ice sheet modelling community.

Tracer transport in an isochronal ice-sheet model
Journal of Glaciology, 2017 The full history of ice sheet and climate interactions is recorded in the vertical profiles of geochemical tracers in polar ice sheets. Numerical simulations of these archives promise great advances both in the interpretation of these reconstructions and

Computation of a combined spherical-elastic and viscous-half-space earth model for ice sheet simulation [PDF]
, 2006 This report starts by describing the continuum model used by Lingle & Clark (1985) to approximate the deformation of the earth under changing ice sheet and ocean loads.
