Hydrofracturing in response to the development of an overpressurised subglacial meltwater system during drumlin formation: an example from Anglesey, NW Wales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper presents the results of a detailed study of a complex hydrofracture system and host diamictons exposed within a longitudinal section through an elongate drumlin located to the west of Cemlyn Bay, Anglesey, NW Wales.

Order in Antarctic ice streams [PDF]

open access: yesNature Geoscience, 2015
Ice streams transport ice rapidly from the interior of the Antarctic ice sheet to the coast. An analysis of surface flow convergence suggests that ice flow and geometry are intricately linked within these ice streams.

Holocene thinning in central Greenland controlled by the Northeast Greenland Ice Stream

open access: yesNature Communications
Ice-core records from the interior of the Greenland ice sheet suggest widespread thinning during the Holocene. However, the recurring underestimation of this thinning in numerical models raises concerns about both the veracity of such reconstructions and

Shear margins in upper half of Northeast Greenland Ice Stream were established two millennia ago

open access: yesNature Communications
Only a few localised ice streams drain most of the ice from the Greenland Ice Sheet. Thus, understanding ice stream behaviour and its temporal variability is crucially important to predict future sea-level change.

Influence of the Gulf Stream on the Barents Sea ice retreat and Eurasian coldness during early winter

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2014
Abnormal sea-ice retreat over the Barents Sea during early winter has been considered a leading driver of recent midlatitude severe winters over Eurasia. However, causal relationships between such retreat and the atmospheric circulation anomalies remains

Thermal convection and the origin of ice streams [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2009
AbstractIce streams are a fact of ice-sheet dynamics, draining up to 90% of the ice. Thermal convection in ice below the density inversion is a speculation. An attempt is made to meld the two in such a way that the speculation becomes an explanation for the fact.
