Report of the Wintering Party of the 13th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition in 1972-1973

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1974
1. The 13th wintering party consisting of 30 men led by the present author was in charge of research activities at Syowa Station for the period from February 1972 to February 1973. The items of the research programmes were as follows: aurora, cosmic rays,

The Dominion Range Ice Core, Queen Maud Mountains, Antarctica - General Site and Core Characteristics with Implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Transantarctic Mountains of East Antarctica provide a new milieu for retrieval of ice-core records. We report here on the initial findings from the first of these records, the Dominion Range ice-core record.

Characteristics of Cherenkov Radiation in Naturally Occuring Ice

open access: yes, 2016
We revisit the theory of Cherenkov radiation in uniaxial crystals. Historically, a number of flawed attempts have been made at explaining this radiation phenomenon and a consistent error-free description is nowhere available.

Mechanisms of Surface Meltwater Ponding and Drainage on the Greenland Ice Sheet Revealed Using SkySat Imagery and Deep Learning

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Surface meltwater impacts Greenland Ice Sheet mass balance indirectly by reducing albedo and promoting hydrofracture. However, fully understanding both processes requires accurate mapping of small‐scale features such as ponds, channels, and moulins that govern meltwater formation and drainage. Here we investigate surface water dynamics at high

Melt regimes, internal stratigraphy, and flow dynamics of three glaciers in the Alaska Range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We used ground-penetrating radar (GPR), GPS and glaciochemistry to evaluate melt regimes and ice depths, important variables for mass-balance and ice-volume studies, of Upper Yentna Glacier, Upper Kahiltna Glacier and the Mount Hunter ice divide, Alaska.

Grounding‐Zone Wedge Formation and Effects on Ice‐Stream Retreat and Stability

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Ice streams deposit sediment at their grounding lines, where ice reaches flotation. Grounding Zone Wedge (GZW) deposits indicate stillstands in past grounding‐line retreat, and are thought to stabilize grounding lines by reducing local water depth, restricting ice flow. However, the mechanisms of GZW growth are uncertain, as are the effects of

Radar evidence of ponded subglacial water in Greenland

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2018
The thermal state at the bed of a large ice sheet is a critical boundary condition governing its future evolution. Radar surveys provide an opportunity for direct but remote observation of the ice-sheet bed, and therefore offer a means of constraining ...

Real‐Time Ground Deformation Records of Coastal Cliff Failures in San Diego County, California

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Coastal cliff failures pose significant risks to public safety and coastal infrastructure, especially in southern California. We deployed a suite of continuous geophysical sensors to investigate failure processes and precursory behaviors at three coastal clifftop sites in San Diego County: San Elijo State Beach and two locations in Del Mar ...

Exploring canyons beneath Devon Ice Cap for sub-glacial drainage using radar and thermodynamic modeling

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Sub-glacial canyon features up to 580 m deep between flat terraces were identified beneath Devon Ice Cap during a 2023 radar echo sounding (RES) survey.
