Disentangling the oceanic drivers behind the post-2000 retreat of Sermeq Kujalleq, Greenland (Jakobshavn Isbræ) [PDF]
The CryosphereOcean temperatures have warmed in the fjords surrounding the Greenland Ice Sheet, causing increased melt along their ice fronts and rapid glacier retreat and contributing to rising global sea levels.

Icebergs, sea ice, blue carbon and Antarctic climate feedbacks [PDF]
, 2018 Sea ice, including icebergs, has a complex relationship with the carbon held within animals (blue carbon) in the polar regions. Sea-ice losses around West Antarctica's continental shelf generate longer phytoplankton blooms but also make it a hotspot for ...

Multi‐Breed Genomic Predictions for Average Daily Gain in Three Italian Beef Cattle Breeds
Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 1, Page 119-129, January 2026.ABSTRACT Marchigiana, Chianina, and Romagnola are three Italian autochthonous beef cattle breeds that have been historically selected for meat production. Recent advancements suggest that the use of genomic data and multi‐breed (MB) models to combine information from different breeds may help to increase the accuracies of genomic predictions, in ...

Monte Carlo ice flow modeling projects a new stable configuration for Columbia Glacier, Alaska, c. 2020 [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2012 Due to the abundance of observational datasets collected since the onset of its retreat (c. 1983), Columbia Glacier, Alaska, provides an exciting modeling target.

What Controls the Formation of Antarctic Bottom Water at Cape Darnley, East Antarctica?
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.Abstract Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW), formed from Dense Shelf Water (DSW) in Antarctic coastal polynyas, partly drives the global overturning circulation. Cape Darnley Polynya in East Antarctica, the most recently‐identified AABW formation site, remains poorly understood.

Birth of a Large Iceberg in Pine Island Bay, Antarctica [PDF]
, 2004 This lithograph shows the break-off of a large iceberg from the Pine Island Glacier in West Antarctica. This event occurred between November 4th and 12th, 2001, and provides powerful evidence of rapid changes underway in this area of Antarctica.

The origin of green icebergs in Antarctica [PDF]
, 1992 A comparison of samples from a translucent green iceberg with a core from the Ronne Ice Shelf revealed an excellent agreement in isotopic composition, crystal structure, and incorporated sediment particles.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.Abstract Glacial earthquakes are a class of seismic sources generated by the capsize of icebergs calved from glacier termini. Although being teleseismically observed in Greenland glaciers, seismic detection of such events in Antarctica has been elusive.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.Abstract By analyzing velocity changes of the Pine Island Ice Shelf (PIIS) from October 2014 to August 2025 using Sentinel‐1A/B imagery, we find that the PIIS flow changed markedly over this period. A distinct slowdown occurred at the central PIIS from 14 March 2022 to 20 January 2023, during which velocities decreased from 13.15 ± 0.04 to 12.71 ± 0.17

Patterns in glacial-earthquake activity around Greenland, 2011–13
Journal of Glaciology, 2017 Glacial earthquakes are caused by large iceberg calving events, which are an important mechanism for mass loss from the Greenland ice sheet. The number of glacial earthquakes in Greenland has increased sixfold over the past two decades.
