Semi-automated open water iceberg detection from Landsat applied to Disko Bay, West Greenland
Journal of Glaciology, 2019 Changes in Greenland's marine-terminating outlet glaciers have led to changes in the flux of icebergs into Greenland's coastal waters, yet icebergs remain a relatively understudied component of the ice-ocean system.

Green Icebergs Revisited [PDF]
, 2019 Ice crystals form in supercooled seawater beneath several Antarctic ice shelves; as they rise to the ice-shelf base they scavenge particles from the water and incorporate them into the growing basal ice.

Quantifying Upper Layer Circulation using Iceberg GPS Tracking
, 2019 16 slidesThe Greenland proglacial fjord system, where glaciers from the ice sheet reach the ocean, is an important contributor to sea level rise. When reaching the ocean, these glaciers break off icebergs.

, 1980 The tendency of icebergs to roll or heel over is well-known, and so the potential hazards and difficulties of towing unstable icebergs may be appreciated.

Seasonal Fluctuations of Plastochromanol‐8 and α‐Tocopherol Amounts in the Leaves of Cecropia Trees
Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plastochromanol‐8 (PC‐8) is a homologue of γ‐tocotrienol with a longer side chain (eight instead of three isoprene units) and therefore also a representative of the tocochromanol (vitamin E) group. PC‐8 has been determined in various plants and seeds, with Cecropia sp. leaves showing unusually high levels.

Icebergs in the Southern Ocean (Abstract)
, 1987 Relatively little data on the distribution of Antarctic icebergs were available prior to 1980. The published literature included size data of about 5000 icebergs, and position data of 12 000 icebergs. There were indications that the size data were biased

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The ray‐finned fishes include one out of every two species of living vertebrates on Earth and have an abundant fossil record stretching 380 million years into the past. The division of systematic knowledge of ray‐finned fishes between paleontologists working on extinct animals and neontologists studying extant species has obscured the ...
