Reconstructing ice-sheet accumulation rates at ridge B, East Antarctica [PDF]
, 2004 Understanding how ice sheets responded to past climate change is fundamental to forecasting how they will respond in the future. Numerical models calculating the evolution of ice sheets depend upon accumulation data, which are principally available from ...

Star patterns on lake ice [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2007 Star patterns, reminiscent of a wide range of diffusively controlled growth forms from snowflakes to Saffman-Taylor fingers, are ubiquitous features of ice-covered lakes. Despite the commonality and beauty of these "lake stars," the underlying physical processes that produce them have not been explained in a coherent theoretical framework.

Arctic sea ice decline contributes to thinning lake ice trend in northern Alaska
Environmental Research Letters, 2016 Field measurements, satellite observations, and models document a thinning trend in seasonal Arctic lake ice growth, causing a shift from bedfast to floating ice conditions. September sea ice concentrations in the Arctic Ocean since 1991 correlate well (

LAKE ICE MONITORING WITH WEBCAMS [PDF]
ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2018 Abstract. Continuous monitoring of climate indicators is important for understanding the dynamics and trends of the climate system. Lake ice has been identified as one such indicator, and has been included in the list of Essential Climate Variables (ECVs).

A Ten-Year Record of Supraglacial Lake Evolution and Rapid Drainage in West Greenland Using an Automated Processing Algorithm for Multispectral Imagery [PDF]
, 2013 The rapid drainage of supraglacial lakes introduces large pulses of meltwater to the subglacial environment and creates moulins, surface-to-bed conduits for future melt.

Responses of Lake Ice Phenology to Climate Change at Tibetan Plateau
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2020 Lake ice phenology is a sensitive indicator reflecting global warming. In this article, the long-term changes in lake ice phenology of the second-largest lake at Tibetan Plateau (i.e., the Nam Co) in response to climate change are investigated based on ...

Ice thickness and water level estimation for ice-covered lakes with satellite altimetry waveforms and backscattering coefficients [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2023 Lake ice, serving as a sensitive indicator of climate change, is an important regulator of regional hydroclimate and lake ecosystems. For ice-covered lakes, traditional satellite altimetry-based water level estimation is often subject to winter anomalies

Determining lake surface water temperatures worldwide using a tuned one-dimensional lake model (FLake, v1) [PDF]
, 2016 A tuning method for FLake, a one-dimensional (1-D) freshwater lake model, is applied for the individual tuning of 244 globally distributed large lakes using observed lake surface water temperatures (LSWTs) derived from along-track scanning radiometers ...
