Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

Modelling subglacial fluvial sediment transport with a graph-based model, Graphical Subglacial Sediment Transport (GraphSSeT) [PDF]
A quantitative understanding of how sediment discharge from subglacial fluvial systems varies in response to glaciohydrological conditions is essential for understanding marine systems around Greenland and Antarctica and for interpreting sedimentary ...

Fracture and Calving Front Evolution: A Case Study of Fimbul Ice Shelf, Antarctica
ABSTRACT This study combines historical records, satellite remote sensing data, and inverse modelling to investigate crack formation and calving front evolution of the Fimbul Ice Shelf, Antarctica. Historical maps from the 1950s, together with satellite imagery from 1970s–2026, are used to reconstruct calving‐front positions and track the evolution of ...

Simulating jökulhlaups from an ice-marginal lake within a 2D model of subglacial drainage and basal sliding [PDF]
Ice-marginal lakes are an increasingly common feature of glacierised landscapes, and their sudden drainage beneath glaciers (a jökulhlaup) can threaten downstream communities and infrastructure.

ABSTRACT The McMurdo Dry Valleys, the largest ice‐free region in Antarctica, are home to a cold‐desert hydrologic system of glaciers, snowbanks, streams, and lakes. Freshwater is also stored as dead glacial ice, which is poorly constrained in terms of ion concentrations and interactions with both in situ and overlying sediments.

ABSTRACT Pingos are large mounds with cores formed of intrusive ice that form in periglacial landscapes. These ice structures can form in regions of discontinuous permafrost, commonly as hydraulic or open‐system pingos, or in locations of continuous permafrost, commonly as hydrostatic or closed‐system pingos.

Abstract. The role of subglacial hydrological networks and subglacial lakes in modulating ice dynamics under the East and West Antarctic Ice Sheets is now relatively well understood. In contrast, little is known about subglacial water bodies under the Antarctic Peninsula Ice Sheet and how these are influencing glacier behaviour.

Rapid Increase in Geogenic CO2 Emissions from Antarctic Permafrost
Abstract Thawing permafrost can amplify climate change by releasing previously stored carbon, but observations of this feedback come mainly from the Arctic. Ice‐free Antarctic terrains are generally regarded as minor CO2 sources, although sub‐permafrost brines and deep carbon reservoirs may support localized geogenic degassing.

Recovery Ice Stream subglacial hydrology simulation
These data are outputs from GlaDS subglacial hydrology model applied to Recovery Ice Stream, East Antarctica. These outputs are used to analyse subglacial lake growth and drainage rates along with channel growth and variability in water pressure.

Distribution and dynamics of Greenland subglacial lakes
Subglacial lakes can influence basal hydrology and ice flow in Antarctica, but are poorly constrained in Greenland. Here the authors provide the first ice sheet-wide inventory of subglacial lakes beneath GrIS, including 54 uncharted lakes.
