Processes and feedbacks associated with iceberg calving and subaqueous terminus morphology, Tasman/Haupapa Glacier, New Zealand. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Global deglaciation is increasing the number of glaciers that are forming or have formed proglacial lake. Deglaciation is also changing the size of proglacial lakes in temperate settings, resulting in more glaciers losing mass via iceberg calving.

Role of Mid‐ and High‐Latitude, Southern Hemisphere Processes for Ushering in the Middle Pleistocene Transition

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Glacial‐interglacial cycles increased in length from about 41 to 100 thousand years during the Middle Pleistocene Transition (MPT) about 1.5 to 0.8 million years ago. This took place in step with strong global cooling after several million years of weaker cooling.

The life cycle of small- to medium-sized icebergs in the Amundsen Sea Embayment

open access: yesPolar Research, 2019

The Influence of Sea Ice and Ice Mélange on Outlet Glacier Dynamics in the Arctic and Antarctic: Recent Progress and Future Challenges

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Sea ice is situated close to the termini of many outlet glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic and has the potential to influence their dynamics and, therefore, their contribution to sea level rise. However, the nature, prevalence, and ice‐dynamic significance of sea ice‐glacier interactions remains subject to several open questions.

Freshwater flux from ice sheet melting and iceberg calving in the Southern Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This dataset is a multiyear mean Southern Ocean freshwater flux field that uses recently compiled measurements of ice sheet melting, iceberg calving, iceberg tracking, and river runoff.

Tidewater glacier response to individual calving events

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2022
Tidewater glaciers have been observed to experience instantaneous, stepwise increases in velocity during iceberg-calving events due to a loss of resistive stresses.

Juvenile predation overwhelms nutritional effects on female ungulate fat reserves in a high‐predation system

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1578-1586, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ungulate body fat reserves reflect the nutritional environment, often serving as a useful indicator of bottom‐up resource availability. However, body fat reserves also integrate energetic costs associated with avoiding predation risk and reproductive effort, and it is ...

DNA Metabarcoding Reveals Unexpected Predator–Prey–Microbial Dynamics in the Southern Right Whale (Eubalaena australis)

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 12, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Southern right whale (Eubalaena australis; SRW) populations are recovering from the impacts of commercial whaling, however, recovery has been spatially variable, with strong associations between reproduction and prey availability. The diet of SRWs has not been widely examined, and with SRW foraging shifting away from high‐latitude foraging ...

Calving laws and where to find them

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Calving from tidewater glaciers and ice shelves is an important component of global mass balance and may contribute significantly to future sea-level rise.

Glacier monitoring using real-aperture 94 GHz radar

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2022
Close-range sensors are employed to observe glaciological processes that operate over short timescales (e.g. iceberg calving, glacial lake outburst floods, diurnal surface melting).
