An englacial hydrologic system of brine within a cold glacier: Blood Falls, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2017
Taylor Glacier hosts an active englacial hydrologic system that feeds Blood Falls, a supraglacial outflow of iron-rich subglacial brine at the terminus, despite mean annual air temperatures of −17°C and limited surface melt.

A comparison of contemporaneous airborne altimetry and ice-thickness measurements of Antarctic ice shelves

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2023
Estimates of ice shelf mass loss are typically based on surface height measurements, assuming hydrostatic equilibrium and estimated firn thickness.

ImpDAR: an open-source impulse radar processor

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2020
Despite widespread use of radio-echo sounding (RES) in glaciology and broad distribution of processed radar products, the glaciological community has no standard software for processing impulse RES data.

Polarimetric multi-offset radio-echo sounding with a radio frequency-over-fiber ApRES system

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Polarimetric multi-offset radio-echo sounding offers improved constraints on englacial thermal conditions, basal properties and ice crystal orientation compared to standard monostatic observations.

A framework for attenuation method selection evaluated with ice-penetrating radar data at South Pole Lake

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2020
All radar power interpretations require a correction for attenuative losses. Moreover, radar attenuation is a proxy for ice-column properties, such as temperature and chemistry. Prior studies use either paired thermodynamic and conductivity models or the

Inversion for the density–depth profile of Dome A, East Antarctica, using frequency-modulated continuous wave radar

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2021
The density–depth relationship of the Antarctic ice sheet is important for establishing a high-precision surface mass balance model and predicting future ice-sheet contributions to global sea levels.

Automated detection and characterization of Antarctic basal units using radar sounding data: demonstration in Institute Ice Stream, West Antarctica

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2020
Basal units – visibly distinct englacial structures near the ice-bed interface – warrant investigation for a number of reasons. Many are of unknown composition and origin, characteristics that could provide substantial insight into subglacial processes ...
