Using Vertically Integrated Ocean Fields to Characterize Greenland Icebergs’ Distribution and Lifetime [PDF]
, 2018 Icebergs represent approximately half of Greenland’s yearly mass loss, having important implications for biological productivity, freshwater fluxes in the ocean, and navigation.

Science, 2005 Sustained harmonic tremor signals were recorded by the seismographs of the German Neumayer Base seismological network in western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. These tremor episodes, lasting up to 16 hours, were recorded up to 820 kilometers from the source. Their spectra show narrow peaks with fundamental frequencies ranging from 0.5 to 6 hertz, more

Quantifying Antarctic icebergs and their melting in the ocean. [PDF]
, 2006 From the Antarctic Ice Sheet calves every year into the Southern Ocean, an average of 2000 km3 of icebergs. The meltwater is spread over a large area in the Southern Ocean but the large temporal variability in iceberg calving and the clustering of ...

A Depolarization Ratio Anomaly Detector to Identify Icebergs in Sea Ice Using Dual-Polarization SAR Images [PDF]
, 2016 Icebergs represent hazards to maritime traffic and offshore operations. Satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is very valuable for the observation of polar regions, and extensive work was already carried out on detection and tracking of large ...

Tracking B-31 iceberg with two aircraft-deployed sensors [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2015 Icebergs are a natural hazard to maritime operations in polar regions. Iceberg populations are increasing, as is the demand for access to both Arctic and Antarctic seas.

Automatic Detection of Small Icebergs in Fast Ice Using Satellite Wide-Swath SAR Images
Remote Sensing, 2019 Automatic detection of icebergs in satellite images is regarded a useful tool to provide information necessary for safety in Arctic shipping or operations over large ocean areas in near-real time.

How do icebergs affect the Greenland ice sheet under pre-industrial conditions? – a model study with a fully coupled ice-sheet–climate model [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2015 Icebergs have a potential impact on climate since they release freshwater over a widespread area and cool the ocean due to the take-up of latent heat.

BMJ, 1994 I palpated a lump in my epigastrium nine months to the day after delivering my third child when I was 43. I was not alarmed since I had had an easy pregnancy and returned to work two months later as a consultant pathologist. I felt well. True, I was tired, but who is not with a full time job and three children, especially a small baby who still woke me

Iceberg drift and melting rates in the northwestern Weddell Sea, Antarctica: Novel automated regional estimates through machine learning [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2022 Global warming and its consequences on polar regions have been thoroughly discussed in recent times. One of those consequences is the freshwater flux and the associated cooling and freshening that result from iceberg melting. Despite the potential impact,
