Abstract The Arctic Ocean has experienced intensifying phytoplankton spring blooms near the sea ice edge. Here, we investigate the drivers of such near‐ice blooms in the Greenland Sea by comparing satellite and in situ observations with the ECCO‐Darwin physical–biogeochemical state estimate.

Under CMIP6 scenarios in the Marsyangdi River Basin, SWAT+ simulations show that warming and shifting precipitation diminish snowfall and cryospheric buffering, deepening pre‐monsoon flow deficits. This seasonal mismatch drives critical Water–Energy–Food–Ecosystem trade‐offs: dry‐season run‐of‐river hydropower generation drop, and increase in winter ...

Glacial meltwater landforms of central British Columbia
The Cordilleran Ice Sheet (CIS), which grew and melted repeatedly across the mountain ranges of westernmost Canada during the late Cenozoic, has imprinted its legacy in the form of glacial landforms, such as meltwater landforms.

Abstract Understanding the coastal zone of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS), where it interacts with the Southern Ocean and warmer air masses, is crucial for predicting Antarctica's influence on the global climate and sea level. This region has multiple tipping mechanisms that could trigger large, rapid, and potentially irreversible changes in the AIS ...

Abstract In alpine permafrost basins, dry‐season runoff largely depends on subpermafrost groundwater (BPG, deep groundwater), yet cryohydrogeological conditions are complicated by time‐varying hydrothermal regimes. Combined with the storage and regulation effects of permafrost on runoff, hydrograph‐based estimates of the fractional contribution of BPG ...

Abstract In this study, we present a mix of full‐depth profiles and near‐bottom observations of dissolved 230Th and 232Th from the Adélie Land margin in East Antarctica, a key site of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) formation. We show that the distribution of dissolved Th isotopes in this region is governed by a combination of reversible scavenging ...

Antarctic meltwater spread pattern and its duration modulate abyssal circulation
Antarctic meltwater could slow the abyssal circulation, which is essential for ventilating heat, carbon, and nutrients, thereby influencing global climate patterns and marine ecosystems.

Abstract The horizontal surface motions of the Earth's crust induced by glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) are highly sensitive to lateral variations in Earth properties. We construct 3D GIA models by incorporating both varying elastic lithospheric thickness and lateral viscosity variations in the asthenosphere in a global, compressible, self ...

Impact of glacial meltwater on phytoplankton biomass along the Western Antarctic Peninsula
The Western Antarctic Peninsula is undergoing rapid environmental change. Regional warming is causing increased glacial meltwater discharge, but the ecological impact of this meltwater over large spatiotemporal scales is not well understood.

Persistent Warming and Reduced Freshening of the Abyssal Southern Ocean
Abstract Antarctic Bottom Water has thinned, warmed, freshened, and spread more slowly into the global ocean since 1970. Yet, the physical drivers of these changes and their broader implications remain incompletely understood. Here we combine up‐to‐date observations (1985–2024) with ocean model simulations extending to 2050 to quantify ongoing and ...
