A hybrid ice-mélange model based on particle and continuum methods [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Ice mélange, a composite of sea ice and icebergs, can have a major influence on sea-ice–ocean interactions. However, ice mélange has not been represented in climate models because numerically efficient realizations do not exist.

Melting and fragmentation laws from the evolution of two large Southern Ocean icebergs estimated from satellite data [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
The evolution of the thickness and area of two large Southern Ocean icebergs that have drifted in open water for more than a year is estimated through the combined analysis of altimeter data and visible satellite images.

Detailed Lacustrine Calving Iceberg Inventory from Very High Resolution Optical Imagery and Object-Based Image Analysis

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
In the field of iceberg and glacier calving studies, it is important to collect comprehensive datasets of populations of icebergs. Particularly, calving of lake-terminating glaciers has been understudied.

Impacts of tidewater glacier advance on iceberg habitat

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2023
Icebergs in proglacial fjords serve as pupping, resting and molting habitat for some of the largest seasonal aggregations of harbor seals (Phoca vitulina richardii) in Alaska.

The Sectarian Iceberg? [PDF]

open access: yesScottish Affairs, 2015
This article situates the contemporary evidential position on Scotland's sectarianism within some longer-term and ongoing debates. It does so by addressing three key aspects of sectarianism in Scotland. Firstly it explores long-standing concerns about sectarianism in Scotland, and the puzzle that sectarianism frequently seems to be someone else's ...

Islands of Ice: Influence of Free-Drifting Antarctic Icebergs on Pelagic Marine Ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yesOceanography, 2012
Regional warming around West Antarctica, including the Antarctic Peninsula, is related to the retreat of glaciers that has resulted in significant ice mass loss in recent decades (De Angelis and Skvarca, 2003). Large icebergs (> 18.5 km long) originating

Estimation of potential fresh water reserves in icebergs

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2017
According to the forecast of the global shortage of fresh water it is expected that the global demand for drink‑ ing water will be increased up to 400 km3 per a year. As the main potential resources of drinking water it is proposed to use table Antarctic

Estimation of the volume of icebergs calved from the outlet glaciers of the Severnaya Zemlya archipelago for 2014–2019

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2021
Volume of icebergs calved from the output glaciers located on the Northern Land during 2014–2019 was estimated using the satellite information. High-resolution satellite data were obtained in the visible spectral range from the non-commercial satellites ...
