Capturing Runoff‐Driven Seasonal Velocity Variations of Fast‐Flowing Outlet Glaciers in Coupled Ice‐Hydrology Simulations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract The seasonal evolution of the subglacial drainage system is a critical control on velocity variations of Greenland marine‐terminating glaciers. Yet numerical models struggle to reproduce observed seasonal behavior, because fast flow suppresses channelization in subglacial hydrology models.

Deglaciation of the Burren glacio‐karst, western Ireland, during Termination 1: Implications for North Atlantic climate and karstification

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 702-715, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The Burren uplands in western Ireland form one of the most extensive and best‐preserved examples of glacio‐karst in Europe. Subsumed by the Irish ice sheet during the Late Pleistocene, granite erratic boulders and in situ silica veins in the limestone bedrock provide a rare opportunity to reconstruct the timing and rate of deglaciation ...

The Glacial Legacy of the Geneva Basin: Morphology and implications of an intricate tunnel valley system revealed from 3D seismic data

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 732-753, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Like other perialpine basins and glaciated margins, the Geneva Basin in SW Switzerland is characterised by buried tunnel valleys, which are elongated incisions widely attributed to subglacial meltwater erosion beneath continental ice sheets. However, an inclusive understanding of the geological control on the evolution of the glacial landscape

Warm Surface Waters Dominate Melting of the Denman‐Shackleton Ice Shelf System

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The ocean dynamics controlling the melting of the Denman‐Shackleton ice shelf system are investigated using a high‐resolution regional ocean‐sea ice‐ice shelf model. Our results show that basal meltwater production exhibits strong seasonal variability, driven by the ocean heat supply toward the ice shelf system, and occurs through two distinct

Bed Topography and Subglacial Conditions of Denman Glacier, East Antarctica: Insights From Magnetotelluric Data and Interdisciplinary Studies

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Understanding the basal conditions of East Antarctica's outlet glaciers is critical for accurately modeling future ice‐sheet evolution. Denman Glacier, one of the continent's fastest‐flowing glaciers, has been identified in bed‐topography models as occupying the deepest continental trough on Earth, potentially acting as a major outlet of the ...

Historical Records of Nutrient Loading Into End‐Member Mid‐Latitude Lakes

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Human‐induced environmental changes impact lakes in temperate regions, but detailed lake basin histories that pre‐date instrumental records are limited. Most paleolimnological reconstructions are used to examine single lakes in isolation, making it difficult to separate regional forcings from morphological influences on a sedimentary signal ...

Dynamic Deglacial Evolution of Interior Seaways and Ice Streams in the Weddell Sea Embayment

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Improving our understanding of Antarctic glacial dynamics is essential for accurately predicting ice sheet behavior and its contribution to global sea level rise under future climate scenarios. The Weddell Sea Embayment, which channels ice from East Antarctica, West Antarctica, and the Antarctic Peninsula into the Filchner‐Ronne Ice Shelf, is ...

Flow‐pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet indicated by the subglacial lineation record over Norway, Sweden and Finland

Boreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 612-669, July 2026.
We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...

Revised classification of glaciofluvial landforms in the Finnish sector of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet

Boreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 702-716, July 2026.
Effective and sustainable land use, conservation, and the use of geological resources (incl. raw materials, aggregates and groundwater) require a clear classification system of sedimentary units, with well‐defined vocabulary and unified mapping practices.

Weichselian history of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet centre, Kvarken archipelago, western Finland—flow shifts, thermal regime and deglaciation

Boreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 670-701, July 2026.
Rapid thaw of the Earth's cryosphere in response to anthropogenic warming highlights the need to identify and understand the contrasting signatures of past ice‐sheet stability and collapse. The Kvarken archipelago, western Finland, at the centre of the former Fennoscandian Ice Sheet (FIS), has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in recognition
