Reconstructing subglacial lake activity with an altimetry-based inverse method
Journal of Glaciology, 2023 Subglacial lake water-volume changes produce ice-elevation anomalies that provide clues about water flow beneath glaciers and ice sheets. Significant challenges remain in the quantitative interpretation of these elevation-change anomalies because the ...

Journal of Glaciology, 2023 Hydrologic pathways beneath ice sheets and glaciers play an important role in regulating ice flow. Antarctica has experienced, and will continue to experience, changes in ice dynamics and geometry, but the associated changes in subglacial hydrology have ...

Subglacial lake drainage detected beneath the Greenland ice sheet. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2015 The contribution of the Greenland ice sheet to sea-level rise has accelerated in recent decades. Subglacial lake drainage events can induce an ice sheet dynamic response—a process that has been observed in Antarctica, but not yet in Greenland, where the ...

Geophysical constraints on the properties of a subglacial lake in northwest Greenland [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2021 In this study, we report the results of an active-source seismology and ground-penetrating radar survey performed in northwestern Greenland at a site where the presence of a subglacial lake beneath the accumulation area has previously been proposed. Both

Drainage and refill of an Antarctic Peninsula subglacial lake reveal an active subglacial hydrological network [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2022 The presence of subglacial lakes and subglacial hydrological networks under the East and West Antarctic ice sheets is now relatively well understood, whilst their influence on ice dynamics is the subject of ongoing research.

Basal melting over Subglacial Lake Ellsworth and its catchment: insights from englacial layering
Annals of Glaciology, 2020 Deep-water ‘stable’ subglacial lakes likely contain microbial life adapted in isolation to extreme environmental conditions. How water is supplied into a subglacial lake, and how water outflows, is important for understanding these conditions. Isochronal

Determining Ice-Sheet Uplift Surrounding Subglacial Lakes with a Viscous Plate Model
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2017 We develop a viscous model of plate bending suitable for studying ice-sheet flexure due to subglacial lake filling and draining, and apply this model to determine the area of ice-sheet uplift surrounding a subglacial lake.
