The Grounding of an Ice Shelf in the Central Arctic Ocean: A Modeling Experiment [PDF]
, 2003 A numerical ice sheet model was used in a first test towards evaluating the hypothesis that, during a period of large-scale glaciation, an ice shelf emanating from the Barents/Kara Seas grounded across parts of the Lomonosov Ridge to a depth of around ...

Meltwater Intrusions Reveal Mechanisms for Rapid Submarine Melt at a Tidewater Glacier [PDF]
, 2019 Submarine melting has been implicated as a driver of glacier retreat and sea level rise, but to date melting has been difficult to observe and quantify. As a result, melt rates have been estimated from parameterizations that are largely unconstrained by ...

Boreas, EarlyView.Glacial erosion during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) has removed much evidence of earlier glaciations and interglacials in the European Alps. At Gröbminger Mitterberg (GM), beneath a blanket of LGM till, a distinctive sediment archive preserves deposits predating the LGM.

Tidewater glacier response to individual calving events
Journal 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.

Journey of an Arctic ice island [PDF]
, 2016 In August 2010, a 253 km2 ice island calved from the floating glacial tongue of Petermann Glacier in Northwest Greenland. Petermann Ice Island (PII)-B, a large fragment of this original ice island, is the most intensively observed ice island in recent ...

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Kenyan athletes have dominated competitive middle‐ and long‐distance running for more than half a century, a phenomenon suggested to be attributable, at least in part, to superior running economy. Given that lower‐leg anthropometry is an important determinant of running economy, a key contributor to the athletic performance of Kenyan runners ...

Glacier monitoring using real-aperture 94 GHz radar
Annals 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).

'Calving laws', 'sliding laws' and the stability of tidewater glaciers [PDF]
, 2007 A new calving criterion is introduced, which predicts calving where the depth of surface crevasses equals ice height above sea level. Crevasse depth is calculated from strain rates, and terminus position and calving rate are therefore functions of ice ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Terrestrial water storage (TWS) plays an important role in describing the Earth system, as water availability is decisive for ecosystems and human development. Since 2002, the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and its Follow‐On (GRACE‐FO) mission have measured TWS anomalies with unprecedented accuracy, enabling a leap in ...

The life cycle of small- to medium-sized icebergs in the Amundsen Sea Embayment
Polar Research, 2019 An object-based method for automatic iceberg detection has been applied to Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar images in the Amundsen Sea Embayment (ASE), Antarctica.
