A New Eulerian Iceberg Module for Climate Studies

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
Icebergs modulate the effective location of freshwater input from ice sheets into the ocean and therefore play an important role for the climate, especially during times of increased ice discharge (e.g., Heinrich events). None of the models participating

Iceberg properties and distributions in three Greenlandic fjords using satellite imagery

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2017
Icebergs calved from tidewater glaciers represent about one third to one half of the freshwater flux from the Greenland ice sheet to the surrounding ocean. Using multiple satellite datasets, we quantify the first fjord-wide distributions of iceberg sizes

Applicability of ERTS for surveying Antarctic iceberg resources [PDF]

open access: yes
The author has identified the following significant results. This investigation explores the applicability of ERTS to (1) determine the Antarctic sea ice and environmental behavior that may influence the harvesting of icebergs, and (2) monitor iceberg ...

Monitoring the Petermann Ice Island with TanDEM-X [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper presents the processing of TanDEM-X acquisitions for the monitoring of the topography of the Petermann ice island. In this particular case the area under study is continuously moving and the acquisition geometry is changing, so the processing ...

Monocyte‐derived macrophages‐synovial fibroblasts crosstalk unravels oncostatin signaling network as a driver of synovitis in osteoarthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating joint disease characterized by cartilage degradation, synovial inflammation, and pain. Macrophages have been implicated in OA pathology, but the origins and functions of diverse macrophage subsets seeding the synovial joint tissue remain incompletely understood.

Semi-automated open water iceberg detection from Landsat applied to Disko Bay, West Greenland

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2019
Changes in Greenland's marine-terminating outlet glaciers have led to changes in the flux of icebergs into Greenland's coastal waters, yet icebergs remain a relatively understudied component of the ice-ocean system.

Activism as education in and through the youth climate justice movement

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Young people worldwide are increasingly participating in a global movement for climate justice, yet to date, little research has examined how youth climate justice activists conceive of and experience activism as education. The present study used in‐depth, semi‐structured interviews with 16 US climate justice activists (aged 15–17) to address ...

Tracking ablation and movement of icebergs with time-lapse photography at an alpine proglacial lake in Austria

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research
Little is known about the evolution and dynamics of icebergs in alpine lakes. We analyzed the movement and ablation patterns of icebergs at an ice-contact lake at Pasterze Glacier, Austria, using time-lapse images.

A Comparison of Numerically Modelled Iceberg Backscatter Signatures with Sentinel-1 C-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar Acquisitions

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Remote Sensing, 2018
Use of machine learning to develop algorithms for distinguishing iceberg and vessel targets requires large validated data sets that are often costly, time consuming and, in some cases, inaccessible.
