Seven-year variation in glacier surface velocity at Narsap Sermia in Southwest Greenland

open access: yesGIScience & Remote Sensing, 2023
Glacier velocity is a critical factor closely related to ice dynamics of the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS). We present variations of ice velocity using space-based synthetic aperture radar (SAR) observations from July 2013 to September 2020.

Numerical Investigation of the Pressure Drop Characteristics of Isothermal Ice Slurry Flow under Variable Ice Particle Diameter

open access: yesJournal of Chemistry, 2020
Ice slurry is an advanced secondary refrigerant that has been attracting considerable attention for the past decade due to the growing concerns regarding energy shortage and environmental protection. To stimulate the potential applications of ice slurry,

Electronic Measurement of Ice Velocity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1971
Abstract A light-weight solid-state electronic distance meter was used to measure short-term ice velocities during a two-day interval on the Coleman Glacier at Mt Baker, Washington, U.S.A. The velocities fluctuated rapidly from zero or almost zero to a large fraction of a meter per day.

Numerical Simulation on the Structural Design of a Multi-Pore Water Diffuser during the External Ice Melting Process of an Ice Storage System

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
A water diffuser is a critical auxiliary equipment for an ice storage system during the external ice melting process. This paper proposes a linear multi-pore water diffuser for an ice storage system with 500 t of refrigeration capacity to enhance the ...

Variability in ice motion at a land-terminating Greenlandic outlet glacier: the role of channelized and distributed drainage systems

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2016
We use a combination of field observations and hydrological modelling to examine the mechanisms through which variability in meltwater input affects ice motion at a land-terminating Greenlandic outlet glacier. We find a close agreement between horizontal

Seasonal dynamics of Totten Ice Shelf controlled by sea ice buttressing [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
Previous studies of Totten Ice Shelf have employed surface velocity measurements to estimate its mass balance and understand its sensitivities to interannual changes in climate forcing.

Self-regulation of ice flow varies across the ablation area in south-west Greenland [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2015
The concept of a positive feedback between ice flow and enhanced melt rates in a warmer climate fuelled the debate regarding the temporal and spatial controls on seasonal ice acceleration. Here we combine melt, basal water pressure and ice velocity data.

Observing tidal effects on the dynamics of the Ekström Ice Shelf with focus on quarterdiurnal and terdiurnal periods

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2023
Antarctica's ice shelves stabilize the ice sheet and, therefore, understanding processes affecting the mass budgets of ice shelves is important for estimating grounded ice loss.

SEASONAL COMPARISON OF VELOCITY OF THE EASTERN TRIBUTARY GLACIERS, AMERY ICE SHELF, ANTARCTICA, USING SAR OFFSET TRACKING [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2019
Antarctica and Greenland are two major Earth’s continental ice shelves which play an important role in influencing Earth’s energy balance through their high albedo.
