Ice‐Front Retreat Controls on Ocean Dynamics Under Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctica

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Iceberg A‐68 separated from the Larsen C Ice Shelf in July 2017 and the impact of this event on the local ocean circulation has yet to be assessed.

The DOE E3SM v1.2 Cryosphere Configuration: Description and Simulated Antarctic Ice‐Shelf Basal Melting

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2022
The processes responsible for freshwater flux from the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS), ice‐shelf basal melting and iceberg calving, are generally poorly represented in current Earth System Models (ESMs).

Getz Ice Shelf melt enhanced by freshwater discharge from beneath the West Antarctic Ice Sheet [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
Antarctica's Getz Ice Shelf has been rapidly thinning in recent years, producing more meltwater than any other ice shelf in the world. The influx of fresh water is known to substantially influence ocean circulation and biological productivity, but ...

Ice Velocity Variations of the Cook Ice Shelf, East Antarctica, from 2017 to 2022 from Sentinel-1 SAR Time-Series Offset Tracking

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The Cook Glacier drains a significant portion of the Wilkes Subglacial Basin, the largest subglacial basin in East Antarctica—which feeds the Cook Ice Shelf.

Effects of calving and submarine melting on steady states and stability of buttressed marine ice sheets

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2022
Mass loss from ice shelves is a strong control on grounding-line dynamics. Here we investigate how calving and submarine melt parameterizations affect steady-state grounding-line positions and their stability.

Ice-shelf Response to Ice-stream Discharge Fluctuations: II. Ideal Rectangular Ice Shelf [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1988
Abstract Abstract. Ice-shelf thickness and velocity anomalies resulting from ice-stream discharge fluctuations are calculated for an ideal ice shelf fed by a single ice stream and confined within a rectangular coastal geometry. Ice-shelf response to periodic forcing is found to be linear (thickness and velocity anomalies oscillate at ...

Ephemeral grounding on the Pine Island Ice Shelf, West Antarctica, from 2014–2023 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Ephemeral grounding refers to the intermittent contact between an ice shelf and elevated seafloor features. The evolution of ephemeral grounding of an ice shelf can affect buttressing, alter ice flow dynamics, and influence ice shelf stability. Long-term

Ice-shelf basal melting in a global finite-element sea-ice/ice-shelf/ocean model [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2012
AbstractThe Finite Element Sea-ice Ocean Model (FESOM) has been augmented by an ice-shelf component with a three-equation system for diagnostic computation of boundary layer temperature and salinity. Ice-shelf geometry and global ocean bathymetry have been derived from the RTopo-1 dataset.

Portable Molecularly Imprinted Polymer Sensor for Rapid Swab‐Based Detection of Norovirus

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work reports a rapid, portable smartphone‐based sensor capable of detecting four norovirus genotypes from swab samples within 15 min. Sensor selectivity was validated through evaluation against four common live viruses. The swab‐based sampling process enabled simple sample preparation combined with the compact detection system, supporting use of ...

Calving cycle of the Brunt Ice Shelf, Antarctica, driven by changes in ice-shelf geometry [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2019
Abstract. Despite the potentially detrimental impact of large-scale calving events on the geometry and ice flow of the Antarctic Ice Sheet, little is known about the processes that drive rift formation prior to calving, or what controls the timing of these events.
