Design and results of the ice sheet model initialisation initMIP-Greenland: an ISMIP6 intercomparison [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
Earlier large-scale Greenland ice sheet sea-level projections (e.g. those run during the ice2sea and SeaRISE initiatives) have shown that ice sheet initial conditions have a large effect on the projections and give rise to important uncertainties. The

Twenty-first century ocean forcing of the Greenland ice sheet for modelling of sea level contribution

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
. Changes in ocean temperature and salinity are expected to be an important determinant of the Greenland ice sheet's future sea level contribution. Yet, simulating the impact of these changes in continental-scale ice sheet models remains challenging due ...

Numerical estimation of 10000 years later equilibrium ice sheet profile in the Shirase Glacier drainage basin, East Antarctica

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1991
Recent observations show that the ice sheet in the Shirase Glacier drainage basin, East Antarctica, is thinning. If the observed thinning is assumed to be a transitional process in which the ice sheet is adjusting to the present climate, an equilibrium ...

Peridynamic Simulation of the Penetration of an Ice Sheet by a Vertically Ascending Cylinder

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
The vertical ice breaking of marine structures in ice-covered areas involves the deformation and failure of an ice sheet. Different from the existing conventional scenarios where the ice sheet is used as a transportation and support medium, the damage to

Last deglaciation of northern continental Europe

open access: yesCuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2015
Correlation of main ice sheet limits in northern continental Europe during Late Weichselian is presented, based on available data concerning occurrence of ice-marginal formations and their radiometric dating.

West Antarctic ice sheet and CO2 greenhouse effect: a threat of disaster

open access: yesScottish Geographical Journal, 2020
Over 40 years ago, the glaciologist John Mercer warned that parts of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet were at risk of collapse due to the CO2 greenhouse effect.

Overexpression of CDT1 inhibits cell cycle progression at S phase by interacting with the mini‐chromosome maintenance complex and causes DNA damage

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CDT1 is an essential protein for DNA replication licensing that loads the MCM complex, the eukaryotic replicative DNA helicase, onto replication origins. Overexpression of CDT1 induces cell cycle arrest at the S phase. Here we showed CDT1 inhibits the progression of replication forks by interacting with the MCM complex, leading to the stalling and ...

SNUPN‐Related Muscular Dystrophy: Novel Phenotypic, Pathological and Functional Protein Insights

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective SNUPN‐related muscular dystrophy or LGMDR29 is a new entity that covers from a congenital or childhood onset pure muscular dystrophy to more complex phenotypes combining neurodevelopmental features, cataracts, or spinocerebellar ataxia. So far, 12 different variants have been described.

Positive feedbacks drive the Greenland ice sheet evolution in millennial-length MAR–GISM simulations under a high-end warming scenario [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Understanding the complex interactions between the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) and the atmosphere is crucial for projecting its future sea level contribution. However, studying these interactions remains challenging, as it requires high-resolution climate

Future climate response to Antarctic Ice Sheet melt caused by anthropogenic warming

open access: yesScience Advances, 2020
Antarctic ice loss over the next 250 years will affect global climate, influencing warming rates and ice sheet stability. Meltwater and ice discharge from a retreating Antarctic Ice Sheet could have important impacts on future global climate.
