Mapping snow depth on Canadian sub-arctic lakes using ground-penetrating radar [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2023
Ice thickness across lake ice is mainly influenced by the presence of snow and its distribution, which affects the rate of lake ice growth. The distribution of snow depth over lake ice varies due to wind redistribution and snowpack metamorphism ...

Calving Seasonality Associated With Melt‐Undercutting and Lake Ice Cover

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2020
A detailed understanding of calving processes at the lacustrine margins of the Greenland ice sheet is necessary for accurately forecasting its dynamic response to ongoing climate change.

The backscattering characteristics of thermokarst lake ice in the qinghai-tibet plateau from SAR [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2014
A thermokarst lake is an important indicator of changes in climate, which cause considerable thermal distribution to the surrounding permafrost. The imaging radar has demonstrated the capability to determine when and which lakes freeze or do not freeze ...

Source of Lake Vostok Cations Constrained with Strontium Isotopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Lake Vostok is the largest sub-glacial lake in Antarctica. The primary source of our current knowledge regarding the geochemistry and biology of the lake comes from the analysis of refrozen lake water associated with ice core drilling. Several sources of

Lake Ice Investigation at Peters Lake, Alaska [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1963
AbstractIn this paper a study of lake ice at Peters Lake with respect to crystallographic nature and impurity in crystal grain boundaries is described. The appearance of the ice structure in 1962 was quite uniform over the whole area of the lake; it showed predominantly horizontal c-axes. Another type of ice with predominantly vertical c-axes could not

Application of GNSS Interferometric Reflectometry for the Estimation of Lake Ice Thickness

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Lake ice thickness is a sensitive indicator of climate change largely through its dependency on near-surface air temperature and on-ice snow mass (depth and density). Monitoring of the seasonal variations and trends in ice thickness is also important for

Interaction between ice sheet dynamics and subglacial lake circulation: a coupled modelling approach [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2010
Subglacial lakes in Antarctica influence to a large extent the flow of the ice sheet. In this study we use an idealised lake geometry to study this impact. We employ a) an improved three-dimensional full-Stokes ice flow model with a nonlinear rheology, b)

Regional Variability and Drivers of Below Ice CO2 in Boreal and Subarctic Lakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Northern lakes are ice-covered for considerable portions of the year, where carbon dioxide (CO2) can accumulate below ice, subsequently leading to high CO2 emissions at ice-melt.

Simulating lake ice phenology using a coupled atmosphere–lake model at Nam Co, a typical deep alpine lake on the Tibetan Plateau [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Simulating the ice phenology of deep alpine lakes is important and challenging in coupled atmosphere–lake models. In this study, the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, coupled with two lake models, the freshwater lake (WRF–FLake) model and the

Optical Properties of Deep Ice at the South Pole - Absorption [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We discuss recent measurements of the wavelength-dependent absorption coefficients in deep South Pole ice. The method uses transit time distributions of pulses from a variable-frequency laser sent between emitters and receivers embedded in the ice.
