Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Antarctic Subglacial Lake Discharges

open access: yes, 2013
Antarctic subglacial lakes were long time supposed to be relatively closed and stable environments with long residence times and slow circulations. This view has recently been challenged with evidence of active subglacial lake discharge underneath the ...

ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION AND ENVIRONMENT MONITORING ISSUES IN THE PROJECTS OF SUBGLACIAL LAKES STUDIES IN ANTARCTICA

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2015
Antarctic subglacial lakes can represent extreme natural habitats for microorganisms from the position of their evolution and adaptation, as well as they can contain the information on Antarctic ice sheet history and climatic changes in their sediments ...

Temporal Variations in Seismic Ambient Noise Identify Seasonal Changes in Basal Conditions at Sermeq Kujalleq in Kangia, Greenland

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Subglacial processes are key to glacier dynamics but remain poorly constrained due to limited in situ observations. We use continuous seismic and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measurements to investigate summer basal conditions at Sermeq Kujalleq in Kangia (SKK; Jakobshavn Isbræ), Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland).

Assessing the catastrophic break-up of Briksdalsbreen, Norway, associated with rapid climate change

open access: yes, 2011
Recent research has raised concerns about the potential influence of rapid climate change on the stability of major ice sheets. The behaviour of glaciers is determined largely by the processes and conditions operating at their base.

cryotools/subglacial-overdeepenings: An inventory of future glacial lakes in High Mountain Asia in shapefile format, v1.0

open access: yes, 2020
An inventory of future glacial lakes in High Mountain Asia including mass movement impact hazard assessments to anticipate emerging threats. This dataset comprises two shapefiles: a subset of all subglacial overdeepenings with a surface area >105 m2 ...

Role of Gmelinoides fasciatus (Crustacea: Amphipoda) in Macrozoobenthos on the Littoral of Lake Onego During the Subglacial Period [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2023
Macrozoobenthos of the littoral of Lake Onego is represented by 22 units of different taxonomic rank. The invasive species Gmelinoides fasciatus (Stebbing 1899) (CRUSTACEA: AMPHIPODA) plays a dominant role by biomass in the littoral macrozoobenthos ...

Landsystems of the tropical high Peruvian Andes: Glaciers, lakes, wetlands and water resources in the Cordillera Vilcanota

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
We outline the geomorphological relationships between glaciers, lakes and bofedal wetlands, and the way in which moraines, talus slopes and sandar interact with catchment hydrology in the tropical Andes of Peru. Bofedales are well developed within glacial limits, with glacial processes such as erosion and formation of moraines providing the poorly ...

Quantifying subglacial roughness and its link to glacial geomorphology and ice speed [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The shape of subglacial bed topography, termed its roughness, is a recognised control on basal ice-flow. Although glaciologists have observed patterns of variations in ice speed over beds with different roughness values, the strength of this relationship

Origin of Late Noachian‐Early Hesperian Valley Networks on Mars: Insights From Landform Evolution and Ice Sheet Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Dendritic valley networks on Mars have been cited as evidence for a warm and wet Noachian Mars, permitting rainfall precipitation and surface runoff. However, the climatic conditions required to sustain rainfall on early Mars remain debated.
