A six-year circum-Antarctic icebergs dataset (2018–2023) [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data
The distribution of Antarctic icebergs is crucial for understanding their impact on the Southern Ocean's atmosphere and physical environment, as well as their role in global climate change.

Iceberg drift ensemble forecasting

open access: yes, 2020
The goal of this thesis is to investigate whether ensemble modeling in iceberg drift forecasting improves predictions of an iceberg's trajectory.

Iceberg Scour and Shell Damage in the Antarctic Bivalve Laternula elliptica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We document differences in shell damage and shell thickness in a bivalve mollusc (Laternula elliptica) from seven sites around Antarctica with differing exposures to ice movement. These range from 60% of the sea bed impacted by ice per year (Hangar Cove,

Methods of Iceberg Towing [PDF]

open access: yesTransNav, 2012
Mathematical models of iceberg towing by a ship connected to the iceberg by mooring lines are considered. Governing equations describing the towing and the tension of mooring lines in two different schemes of the towing are formulated.

Sub-grid parameterization of iceberg drag in a coupled iceberg–ocean model [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Ocean conditions in fjords play a key role in the accelerating ice mass loss of Greenland's marine-terminating glaciers. Ice mélange and icebergs have been shown to impact fjord circulation, heat and freshwater fluxes, and the submarine melting of ...

Icebergs, jigsaw puzzles, and genealogy: automated multi-generational iceberg tracking and lineage reconstruction [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Tabular icebergs calve from ice shelves and glaciers in Antarctica, Greenland, and northern Ellesmere Island. These “ice islands”, as they are referred to in the Arctic, drift, melt, and fragment, contributing freshwater and nutrients to the ocean ...

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

Feasibility of Deep Learning-Based Iceberg Detection in Land-Fast Arctic Sea Ice Using YOLOv8 and SAR Imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Iceberg detection in Arctic sea-ice environments is essential for navigation safety and climate monitoring, yet remains challenging due to observational and environmental constraints.

Iceberg melting substantially modifies oceanic heat flux towards a major Greenlandic tidewater glacier

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Iceberg melting releases large volumes of freshwater in fjords, yet the impact on oceanic heat delivery to tidewater glaciers is unknown. Here the authors show that iceberg melting invigorates fjord circulation in a large, iceberg-congested fjord ...

Iceberg and ship

open access: yes, 1942
Black and white photograph of a ship passing an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean, probably near Newfoundland during World War ...
