Abstract Rock weathering influences Earth's atmosphere and climate. The dissolution of silicate minerals draws down atmospheric CO2 while sulfide oxidation coupled with carbonate dissolution releases CO2. Alpine glacier rock weathering causes high sulfide oxidation and carbonate dissolution.

Climate Warming and Ice Weakening Trigger Alpine Glacier Collapses: The Marmolada Case
Abstract The rapid retreat of temperate mid‐latitude glaciers due to global warming causes dramatic mass loss and increases their instability. Using a synthesis of thermodynamic and mechanical laws, we constructed a three‐dimensional stability model and applied it in the analysis of the collapse of a portion of the Marmolada Glacier in northeastern ...

Glacial Ice‐Front Calving: Internal Wave Generation and Melting
Abstract Small, frequent calving events dominate the behavior of most Arctic marine‐terminating glaciers, yet their oceanographic impacts remain largely unquantified. We present the first direct observations of internal waves generated by modest ice‐fall calving at Kronebreen, Svalbard. High‐resolution current meter and microstructure measurements show
