Stream hydrology controls on ice cliff evolution and survival on debris-covered glaciers [PDF]

Earth Surface Dynamics
Ice cliffs are melt hot spots that contribute disproportionately to melt on debris-covered glaciers. In this study, we investigate the impact of supraglacial stream hydrology on ice cliffs using in situ and remote sensing observations, streamflow ...

Modeling Antarctic subglacial lake filling and drainage cycles [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2016
The growth and drainage of active subglacial lakes in Antarctica has previously been inferred from analysis of ice surface altimetry data. We use a subglacial hydrology model applied to a synthetic Antarctic ice stream to examine internal controls on the

Emergence of the Shackleton Range from beneath the Antarctic Ice Sheet due to glacial erosion [PDF]

, 2014
This paper explores the long-term evolution of a subglacial fjord landscape in the Shackleton Range, Antarctica. We propose that prolonged ice-sheet erosion across a passive continental margin caused troughs to deepen and lower the surrounding ice-sheet ...

Analytical solutions for the surface response to small amplitude perturbations in boundary data in the shallow-ice-stream approximation [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2008
New analytical solutions describing the effects of small-amplitude perturbations in boundary data on flow in the shallow-ice-stream approximation are presented.

Modeling Ice‐Crystal Fabric as a Proxy for Ice‐Stream Stability [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2021
AbstractThe crystal structure within an ice sheet evolves in response to deformation; hence ice‐crystal fabric records ice‐flow history. However, the complexity of crystal‐fabric evolution, and the lack of model results with which to compare data, limit the usefulness of fabric measurements, particularly in areas with complex ice dynamics. Here, we use

Bedrock controls on subglacial landform distribution and geomorphological processes : evidence from the Late Devensian Irish Sea Ice Stream [PDF]

, 2010
Ice streams play an important role as regulators of the behaviour of modern ice sheets, taking the form of corridors of fast flowing ice. Similar zones of fast moving ice have also been recognised draining the margins of the Late Devensian British and ...

Estimation of ice fabric within Whillans Ice Stream using polarimetric phase-sensitive radar sounding

Annals of Glaciology, 2020
Here we use polarimetric measurements from an Autonomous phase-sensitive Radio-Echo Sounder (ApRES) to investigate ice fabric within Whillans Ice Stream, West Antarctica.

Ice stream behaviour and deglaciation of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet in the Kuittijärvi area, Russian Karelia [PDF]

Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2008
Glacial landforms of the Lake Kuittijärvi area, Russian Karelia, which covers an area of more than 7000 km2 , were studied in detail using aerial photography and satellite imagery methods and on-site field observations.

Reconstruction of ice-sheet changes in the Antarctic Peninsula since the Last Glacial Maximum [PDF]

, 2014
This paper compiles and reviews marine and terrestrial data constraining the dimensions and configuration of the Antarctic Peninsula Ice Sheet (APIS) from the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) through deglaciation to the present day.

TWT and ice thickness of the North East Greenland Ice Stream (tabular data)

, 2023
Here, we present a record of more than 8000 km of radar survey lines of radio echo sounding data covering an area of 24 000 km2 centred on the drill site for the East Greenland Ice-core Project (EGRIP) in the central part of the North East Greenland Ice ...
