Crevasse-induced Rayleigh-wave azimuthal anisotropy on Glacier de la Plaine Morte, Switzerland
Annals of Glaciology, 2019 Crevasses and englacial fracture networks route meltwater from a glacier's surface to the subglacial drainage system and thus influence glacial hydraulics.

Application of GNSS Interferometric Reflectometry for the Estimation of Lake Ice Thickness
Remote Sensing, 2020 Lake ice thickness is a sensitive indicator of climate change largely through its dependency on near-surface air temperature and on-ice snow mass (depth and density). Monitoring of the seasonal variations and trends in ice thickness is also important for

Ice volume distribution and implications on runoff projections in a glacierized catchment [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2012 A dense network of helicopter-based ground-penetrating radar (GPR) measurements was used to determine the ice-thickness distribution in the Mauvoisin region.

Bias-corrected estimates of glacier thickness in the Columbia River Basin, Canada
Journal of Glaciology, 2020 Several global datasets of glacier thickness exist, but the number of observations from western Canada are sparse and spatially biased. To supplement these limited observations, we measured ice thickness with ice penetrating radar on five glaciers in the

Interannual variability in Transpolar Drift summer sea ice thickness and potential impact of Atlantification [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2021 Changes in Arctic sea ice thickness are the result of complex interactions of the dynamic and variable ice cover with atmosphere and ocean. Most of the sea ice exiting the Arctic Ocean does so through Fram Strait, which is why long-term measurements of ...

The relation between sea ice thickness and freeboard in the Arctic [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2010 Retrieval of Arctic sea ice thickness from CryoSat-2 radar altimeter freeboard data requires observational data to verify the relation between these two variables.

MeasureIce: accessible on-the-fly measurement of ice thickness in cryo-electron microscopy [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2021 Abstract Ice thickness is arguably one of the most important factors limiting the resolution of protein structures determined by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). The amorphous atomic structure of the ice that stabilizes and protects biological samples in cryo-EM grids also imprints some additional noise in cryo-EM images.

Antarctic ice shelf thickness change from multimission lidar mapping [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2019 We calculate rates of ice thickness change and bottom melt for ice shelves in West Antarctica and the Antarctic Peninsula from a combination of elevation measurements from NASA–CECS Antarctic ice mapping campaigns and NASA Operation IceBridge corrected ...

Journal of Glaciology, 2021 Knowledge of glacier volume is crucial for ice flow modelling and predicting the impacts of climate change on glaciers. Rugged terrain, harsh weather conditions and logistic costs limit field-based ice thickness observations in the Himalaya.
