Carbon Isotope Constraints on the Deglacial CO2 Rise from Ice Cores [PDF]
The stable carbon isotope ratio of atmospheric CO2 (d13Catm) is a key parameter in deciphering past carbon cycle changes. Here we present d13Catm data for the past 24,000 years derived from three independent records from two Antarctic ice cores.

Titan's Plains Revealed: Evidence for a Layered Surface
Abstract Undifferentiated plains are the most common terrain type on Titan, yet their composition and geologic history remain poorly understood. To better characterize their physical properties, we combined Cassini RADAR measurements from nadir altimetry and side‐looking SAR modes. We analyzed these data using radar backscatter models, finding that the

Characteristics of modern atmospheric dust deposition in snow on the Penny Ice Cap, Baffin Island, Arctic Canada [PDF]
We evaluated the concentration, size and distribution of insoluble dust microparticles in snowpits on the Penny Ice Cap (PIC), Baffin Island, to define (1) the characteristics of modern atmospheric dust deposition at the site, (2) the relative ...

Abstract The East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) formed circa 34 million years ago and now contains an ice volume equivalent to ∼52 m of global sea‐level rise. Although the EAIS is approximately in balance today, there is substantial uncertainty regarding the sensitivity of sectors underlain by low‐lying bed topography to future climate and ocean warming ...

Relationships between synoptic-scale transport and interannual variability of inorganic cations in surface snow at Summit, Greenland: 1992-1996 [PDF]
To fully utilize the long-term chemical records retrieved from central Greenland ice cores, specific relationships between atmospheric circulation and the variability of chemical species in the records need to be better understood. This research examines

Increased Glacier Melt Across Millennia to Hours Enhances Erosion and Sediment Export Processes
Abstract Glacial erosion and sediment evacuation are key in shaping polar and mountain landscapes and influencing downstream ecological and social systems. The glacier dynamics and hydrology responsible for these processes are closely linked to hydrological and climatic (hydro‐climatic) conditions.

Abstract In situ carbonyl sulfide (OCS) measurements from the Stratospheric Aerosol processes, Budget and Radiative Effects (SABRE) 2023 airborne campaign are used to evaluate the sulfate budget in the Arctic stratosphere during boreal winter. The strong correspondence between these measurements and remote retrievals from the Atmospheric Chemistry ...

Snow accumulation, surface height change, and firn densification at Summit, Greenland: Insights from 2 years of in situ observation [PDF]
Weekly measurements of surface height change were made at an accumulation forest of 100 stakes at Summit, Greenland, over a 2-year period (17 August 2000 to 8 August 2002).

Abstract Ice cores from Mt. Logan, the second highest peak in North America located in the St. Elias mountains in southwest Yukon, Canada, have provided conflicting accumulation records, thus the hydroclimate response to changing atmospheric conditions in the highest elevation regions is not well constrained.

Altimetry, gravimetry, GPS and viscoelastic modeling data for the joint inversion for glacial isostatic adjustment in Antarctica (ESA STSE Project REGINA) [PDF]
The poorly known correction for the ongoing deformation of the solid Earth caused by glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) is a major uncertainty in determining the mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet from measurements of satellite gravimetry and to a ...
