Near-margin ice thickness and subglacial water routing, Leverett Glacier, Greenland
Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2018 Ice thickness measurements near the margin of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) are relatively sparse, presenting issues for modeling ice-flow dynamics, ice-sheet change, and subglacial hydrology.

Application of a two-step approach for mapping ice thickness to various glacier types on Svalbard [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2017 The basal topography is largely unknown beneath most glaciers and ice caps, and many attempts have been made to estimate a thickness field from other more accessible information at the surface.

The Influence of Snow and Ice Albedo towards Improved Lake Ice Simulations
Hydrology, 2021 Lake ice models are a vital tool for studying the response of ice-covered lakes to changing climates throughout the world. The Canadian Lake Ice Model (CLIMo) is a one-dimensional freshwater ice cover model that simulates Arctic and sub-Arctic lake ice ...

Radiometric analysis of digitized Z-scope records in archival radar sounding film
Journal of Glaciology, 2022 The earliest airborne geophysical campaigns over Antarctica and Greenland in the 1960s and 1970s collected ice penetrating radar data on 35 mm optical film. Early subglacial topographic and englacial stratigraphic analyses of these data were foundational

Radio techniques for the measurement of ice thickness [PDF]
Polar Record, 1963 In recent years, phenomena observed in two quite separate fields of study have led to the suggestion that radio waves may propagate through cold ice masses with sufficiently small loss by absorption to permit the thickness to be measured, and some information about the nature of the bottom surface to be derived by radar.

Drone Surveying of Volumetric Ice Growth in a Steep River
Frontiers in Remote Sensing, 2021 Representative ice thickness data is essential for accurate hydraulic modelling, assessing the potential for ice induced floods, understanding environmental conditions during winter and estimation of ice-run forces. Steep rivers exhibit complex freeze-up

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Near-real-time Arctic sea ice thickness and volume from CryoSat-2 [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2016 Timely observations of sea ice thickness help us to understand the Arctic climate, and have the potential to support seasonal forecasts and operational activities in the polar regions.
