How 3D Processes Drive Trench Infill and Sand Wave Regeneration After Dredging
Abstract Dynamic bedforms, such as sand waves, may pose a threat to offshore energy infrastructure. Due to their impact on seabed mobility, dredging is often required to reduce risks, for example, to avoid cable exposure. However, commonly used data‐driven methods cannot predict the evolution of partially dredged sand waves.

Alaskan Glaciers in a Warming Climate
Abstract Glaciers across Alaska are undergoing rapid mass loss, with implications for sea‐level rise, natural hazards, water resources, and more. Here, we utilize new snowline and melt extent observations of Alaskan glaciers at high spatiotemporal resolutions to improve projections to 2100.

Accumulation Studies at a High Elevation Glacier Site in Central Karakoram
The precipitation conditions in central Karakoram are investigated on the basis of snow samples from high elevated snow pits at Urdok glacier from 2006 and the analysis of atmospheric transport trajectories in combination with the general, large scale ...

Abstract In the temperate, humid mountains of the northeastern United States (U.S.), seasonal snowmelt plays an important role in the annual water balance, and midwinter rain‐on‐snow events and spring snowmelt are common drivers of flooding. Frequent near‐freezing winter temperatures make the region particularly susceptible to midwinter rain and ...

Resolving the internal and basal geometry of ice masses using imaging phase-sensitive radar
The phase-sensitive radio-echo sounder (pRES) is a powerful new instrument that can measure the depth of internal layers and the glacier bed to millimetre accuracy.

Holocene shoreline displacement and the impact of the Storegga tsunami on Hinnøya, northern Norway
The Holocene relative sea‐level (RSL) history of Norway's largest island, Hinnøya, has been investigated in detail, using sediment records from 25 isolation basins. The sediments were analysed for macrofossil and phytoplankton content, which served as the basis for identifying marine–lacustrine transitions, that is isolation contacts. Terrestrial plant

Truncated drumlins and their implication for past sea level reconstructions
Coastal erosion of glacigenic sediments, particularly in the form of retreating drumlin bluffs, is a key process in paraglacial landscape evolution during periods of relative sea‐level (RSL) rise. As marine transgression reworks formerly subaerial glacial terrains, drumlins act as discrete sediment sources generating characteristic erosional and ...

Glacier‐Climate Feedbacks Modulate Last Glacial Maximum Dust Cycle Over the Third Pole
Abstract Geological records indicate only a modest Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) increase in dust deposition over the Third Pole (TP), in contrast to the order‐of‐magnitude rise at high latitudes. Existing climate simulations, which generally prescribe present‐day or no TP glaciers, have struggled to reproduce this muted response.
