Alaska‐Yukon Glacier Depths From a Decade of Airborne Radar Sounding
Abstract NASA's Operation IceBridge employed airborne radar sounders in Alaska and adjacent northwestern Canada between 2012 and 2021 to measure the thickness of the region's glaciers. Here we present the first comprehensive analysis of these data, analyzing ∼31,700 linear‐km of radar profile data to provide over 5,500 linear‐km of ice thickness and ...

-The study of magmatic plumbing systems of volcanoes (roots of volcanoes) is one of the main tasks facing volcanology. One major object of this research is the Klyuchevskaya group of volcanoes (KGV), in Kamchatka, which is the greatest such group that ...

Abstract Chemical weathering is of wide interest because it breaks down minerals, releases nutrients, weakens rock, and draws down atmospheric CO2. To quantify the sensitivity of soil chemical erosion rate to climate and dust, we measured soil chemical erosion rate, dust deposition rate, and soil climate at 18 ridgetop sites along a ∼2.8‐km elevation ...

Records of and controls on temporal variations in activity at arc volcanoes
Many attributes of volcanic activity, whether physical, geochemical/petrological, or geophysical, change over timescales from minutes to millions of years.

The Decline of a Caldera‐Filling Glacier at Volcán Sollipulli, Chile
Abstract Southern Andean glaciers have undergone fast retreat in recent decades. This results in reduced freshwater storage, contribution to sea‐level rise, and locally to the formation of glacial lakes, that may pose the risk of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs).

Abstract Powder snow avalanches are highly dynamic, multiphase gravity‐driven flows typically composed of a dense basal layer overlain by airborne layers in which snow particles are suspended within a turbulent air phase. Despite extensive work on related systems such as pyroclastic density currents and turbidity currents, all gravity current studies ...

Tephrochronology, the characterisation and use of volcanic-ash layers as a unique chronostratigraphic linking, synchronizing, and dating tool, has become a globally-practised discipline of immense practical value in a wide range of subjects including ...

Abstract Tidal sand waves are dynamic bedforms, observed in shelf seas. In some cases they co‐exist with tidal sand banks, larger‐scale bed features. Sand wave characteristics then vary over the sand bank, migrating anti‐cyclonically around the bank. Yet, little is known about the processes behind sand wave formation on a sand bank characterized by a ...
