Quantifying flow and stress in ice mélange, the world’s largest granular material. [PDF]
, 2018 Tidewater glacier fjords are often filled with a collection of calved icebergs, brash ice, and sea ice. For glaciers with high calving rates, this “m ́elange” of ice can be jam-packed, so that the flow of ice fragments is mostly determined by ...

Wind-driven upwelling around grounded tabular icebergs [PDF]
, 2016 Funding was provided by NSF Polar Programs - Grant Number: ARC-1304137.Temperature and salinity data collected around grounded tabular icebergs in Baffin Bay in 2011, 2012 and 2013 indicate wind-induced upwelling at certain locations around the icebergs.

Seismicity within a propagating ice shelf rift: The relationship between icequake locations and ice shelf structure [PDF]
, 2014 Iceberg calving is a dominant mass loss mechanism for Antarctic ice shelves, second only to basal melting. An important process involved in calving is the initiation and propagation of through‐penetrating fractures called rifts; however, the mechanisms ...

Greenland Ice Sheet's Distinct Calving Styles Are Identified in Terminus Change Timeseries
Geophysical Research LettersAt least three primary iceberg calving styles have been identified in Greenland: serac collapse, which produces falling icebergs tens of meters in length; slab capsize, which produces rotating icebergs hundreds of meters in length; and tabular rifting ...

Velocity response of Petermann Glacier, northwest Greenland, to past and future calving events [PDF]
, 2018 Dynamic ice discharge from outlet glaciers across the Greenland Ice Sheet has increased since the beginning of the 21st century. Calving from floating ice tongues that buttress these outlets can accelerate ice flow and discharge of grounded ice. However,

Search for Barents: Evaluation of possible burial sites on north Novaya Zemlya, Russia [PDF]
, 2002 Three cairns on northernmost Novaya Zemlya identified as possible rock-pile graves by Russian investigators in 1977 and 1988 were located and inspected for human remains. These cairns are in the area visited by Dutch seafarers between 17 and 22 June 1597,
