The Influence of Snow and Ice Albedo towards Improved Lake Ice Simulations
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 ...

Radio techniques for the measurement of ice thickness [PDF]
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.

Combining visible and infrared radiometry and lidar data to test simulations in clear and ice cloud conditions [PDF]
Measurements taken during the 2003 Pacific THORPEX Observing System Test (P-TOST) by the MODIS Airborne Simulator (MAS), the Scanning High-resolution Interferometer Sounder (S-HIS) and the Cloud Physics Lidar (CPL) are compared to simulations performed ...

Radiometric analysis of digitized Z-scope records in archival radar sounding film
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

Meteorology and surface energy fluxes in the 2005–2007 ablation seasons at the Miage debris-covered glacier, Mont Blanc Massif, Italian Alps [PDF]
During the 2005–2007 June–September ablation seasons, meteorological conditions were recorded on the lower and upper parts of the debris‐covered ablation zone of Miage Glacier, Italy. In 2005, debris temperature and subdebris ice melt were also monitored

Proposal of a Method to Calculate Ice Thickness Variation Considering the Transition of Frazil into Ice [PDF]
In this study, the behavior of ice plates and frazil were clarified by categorizing temporal changes based on the results of field observation conducted at the Shokotsu and Yubetsu rivers in Hokkaido.

Drone Surveying of Volumetric Ice Growth in a Steep River
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
