Improving interpretation of sea-level projections through a machine-learning-based local explanation approach [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2022
Process-based projections of the sea-level contribution from land ice components are often obtained from simulations using a complex chain of numerical models.

Modeling of the northern hemisphere ice sheets during the last glacial cycle and glaciological sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We present a new three-dimensional thermomechanically coupled ice sheet model of the northern hemisphere to reconstruct the Quaternary ice sheets during the last glacial cycle.

Comparison between a multi-variate nudging method and the ensemble Kalman filter for sea-ice data assimilation

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2018
Increasing ship traffic and human activity in the Arctic has led to a growing demand for accurate Arctic weather forecast. High-quality forecasts obtained by models are dependent on accurate initial states achieved by assimilation of observations.

Recent acceleration of Denman Glacier (1972–2017), East Antarctica, driven by grounding line retreat and changes in ice tongue configuration [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
After Totten, Denman Glacier is the largest contributor to sea level rise in East Antarctica. Denman's catchment contains an ice volume equivalent to 1.5 m of global sea level and sits in the Aurora Subglacial Basin (ASB).

A high-resolution bedrock map for the Antarctic Peninsula [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Assessing and projecting the dynamic response of glaciers on the Antarctic Peninsula to changed atmospheric and oceanic forcing requires high-resolution ice thickness data as an essential geometric constraint for ice flow models.

Modelling wave-induced sea ice breakup in the marginal ice zone

open access: yes, 2017
A model of ice floe breakup under ocean wave forcing in the marginal ice zone (MIZ) is proposed to investigate how floe size distribution (FSD) evolves under repeated wave breakup events.

Solitary flexural–gravity waves in three dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The focus of this work is on three-dimensional nonlinear flexural–gravity waves, propagating at the interface between a fluid and an ice sheet. The ice sheet is modelled using the special Cosserat theory of hyperelastic shells satisfying Kirchhoff's ...

Sea Ice Biogeochemistry: A Guide for Modellers

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Sea ice is a fundamental component of the climate system and plays a key role in polar trophic food webs. Nonetheless sea ice biogeochemical dynamics at large temporal and spatial scales are still rarely described. Numerical models may potentially contribute integrating among sparse observations, but available models of sea ice biogeochemistry are ...

Observations and modelling of first-year ice growth and simultaneous second-year ice ablation in the Prydz Bay, East Antarctica

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2017
The seasonal cycle of fast ice thickness in Prydz Bay, East Antarctica, was observed between March and December 2012. In March, we observed a 0.16 m thickness gain of 0.22 m-thick first-year ice (FYI), while 1.16 m-thick second-year ice (SYI) nearby ...

Arctic sea ice simulation in the PlioMIP ensemble [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2016
Eight general circulation models have simulated the mid-Pliocene warm period (mid-Pliocene, 3.264 to 3.025 Ma) as part of the Pliocene Modelling Intercomparison Project (PlioMIP).
