A Coupled Marine Ice-Stream – Ice-Shelf Model [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1987
AbstractEvidence as to the potential roles of marine ice flows in the dramatic climatological changes which have occurred from the late Pleistocene to the present is reviewed, indicating the need for careful modeling studies to evaluate several crucial hypotheses.

Ice flow dynamics of the northwestern Laurentide Ice Sheet during the last deglaciation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Reconstructions of palaeo-ice-stream activity provide insight into the processes governing ice stream evolution over millennial timescales. The northwestern sector of the Laurentide Ice Sheet experienced a period of rapid retreat driven by warming during

Tremor during ice stream stick-slip [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2015
Abstract. During the 200 km-scale stick slip of the Whillans Ice Plain (WIP), West Antarctica, seismic tremor episodes occur at the ice–bed interface. We interpret these tremor episodes as swarms of small repeating earthquakes. The earthquakes are evenly spaced in time and this even spacing gives rise to spectral peaks at integer multiples of the ...

Engineering a Sonotherapeutic RBC Membrane‐Derived Nanoparticle Platform for the Treatment of Liver Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Herein, an RBC membrane‐derived nanoparticle (CMN‐ICG) is engineered to efficiently deliver a sonosensitizing agent, indocyanine green (ICG), for sonotherapy of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). CMN‐ICG exhibits excellent cytocompatibility, significantly enhances hepatocyte uptake, and produces excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon ultrasound ...

Greenland Ice Sheet and rising sea level in a worst-case climate change scenario [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Models that simulate sheet flow in the Greenland Ice Sheet balance forces at gridpoints in the map plan, which allows only a slow response to changes in climate forcing.

Ice fabric in an Antarctic ice stream interpreted from seismic anisotropy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Here we present new measurements of an anisotropic ice fabric in a fast moving (377 ma−1) ice stream in West Antarctica. We use ∼6000 measurements of shear wave splitting observed in microseismic signals from the bed of Rutford Ice Stream, to show that ...

Diverse behaviors of marine ice sheets in response to temporal variability of the atmospheric and basal conditions

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
The observed retreat of the grounding line of the present-day ice sheets and the simulated grounding-line retreat of ice sheets under changing climate conditions are often interpreted as indications of marine ice-sheet instability (MISI), driven by a ...

Interplay of grounding-line dynamics and sub-shelf melting during retreat of the Bjørnøyrenna Ice Stream

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
The Barents Sea Ice Sheet was a marine-based ice sheet, i.e., it rested on the Barents Sea floor during the Last Glacial Maximum (21 ky BP). The Bjørnøyrenna Ice Stream was the largest ice stream draining the Barents Sea Ice Sheet and is regarded as an ...

A shallow approximation for ice streams sliding over strong beds

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2023
Ice streams are regions of rapid ice sheet flow characterised by a high degree of sliding over a deforming bed. The shallow shelf approximation (SSA) provides a convenient way to obtain closed-form approximations of the velocity and flux in a rapidly ...
