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 ...

Of isbræ and ice streams [PDF]

Annals of Glaciology, 2003
AbstractFast-flowing ice streams and outlet glaciers provide the major avenues for ice flow from past and present ice sheets. These ice streams move faster than the surrounding ice sheet by a factor of 100 or more. Several mechanisms for fast ice-stream flow have been identified, leading to a spectrum of different ice-stream types.

A new approach to inferring basal drag and ice rheology in ice streams, with applications to West Antarctic Ice Streams [PDF]

Journal of Glaciology, 2020
AbstractDrag at the bed and along the lateral margins are the primary forces resisting flow in outlet glaciers. Simultaneously inferring these parameters is challenging since basal drag and ice viscosity are coupled in the momentum balance, which governs ice flow.

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 ...

Array processing in cryoseismology: a comparison to network-based approaches at an Antarctic ice stream [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2023
Seismicity at glaciers, ice sheets, and ice shelves provides observational constraint on a number of glaciological processes. Detecting and locating this seismicity, specifically icequakes, is a necessary first step in studying processes such as basal ...

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

3D Printing Innovations in Polymeric Porous and Patterned Architecture

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Polymeric foams occupy a unique structural space between dense solids and open networks, where engineered void fraction governs mechanical compliance, thermal resistance, and mass transport. Additive manufacturing now enables precise spatial control over cellular architecture, unlocking designer foam structures across applications spanning crash ...

Warm ocean is eroding West Antarctic Ice Sheet [PDF]

, 2004
Satellite radar measurements show that ice shelves in Pine Island Bay have thinned by up to 5.5 m yr^{-1} over the past decade. The pattern of shelf thinning mirrors that of their grounded tributaries-the Pine Island, Thwaites and Smith glaciers- and ...

Microengineered Gradient Hydrogels for Mechanobiology

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Gradient hydrogels are used to mimic the mechanical heterogeneity in native tissues, offering powerful in vitro platforms to study cell‐material interactions in diverse pathophysiological contexts. Here, we present a comprehensive review of the design and experimental considerations for stiffness gradient hydrogels, discussing exemplary achievements ...
