Iceberg Calving: Regimes and Transitions
Uncertainty about sea-level rise is dominated by uncertainty about iceberg calving, mass loss from glaciers or ice sheets by fracturing. Review of the rapidly growing calving literature leads to a few overarching hypotheses.

Sustained harmonic tremor signals were recorded by the seismographs of the German Neumayer Base seismological network in western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. These tremor episodes, lasting up to 16 hours, were recorded up to 820 kilometers from the source. Their spectra show narrow peaks with fundamental frequencies ranging from 0.5 to 6 hertz, more

Review of Ice Characteristics in Ship-Iceberg Collisions
The International Ice Patrol (IIP) was established after the Titanic collided with an iceberg off the eastern coast of Canada in 1912 and sank, killing more than 1,500 people.

We propose an unsupervised method for iceberg detection over sea ice-free waters. The algorithm is based on the segmentation and nonparametric constant false alarm rate (SnP-CFAR) approach.

Iceberg Hashing: Optimizing Many Hash-Table Criteria at Once [PDF]
Despite being one of the oldest data structures in computer science, hash tables continue to be the focus of a great deal of both theoretical and empirical research.

Variability and Formation Mechanism of Polynyas in Eastern Prydz Bay, Antarctica
Based on satellite remote sensing, several polynyas have been found in Prydz Bay, East Antarctica. Compared with the Mackenzie Bay Polynya, the only polynya in the west, the polynyas in eastern Prydz Bay have a larger area and higher ice production, but ...

Ocean currents break up a tabular iceberg
In December 2020, giant tabular iceberg A68a (surface area 3900 km2) broke up in open ocean much deeper than its keel, indicating that the breakage was not immediately caused by collision with the seafloor.

Ice ridges and icebergs generally pose a major threat to both ships and offshore facilities that operate in Polar regions. In many cases these features will govern the structural design loads associated with the Ultimate Limit State (ULS) and the ...
