Determining Ice-Sheet Uplift Surrounding Subglacial Lakes with a Viscous Plate Model
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.

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

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 ...

Entrained Water in Basal Ice Suppresses Radar Bed‐Echo Power at Active Subglacial Lakes
Subglacial lakes have been mapped across Antarctica with two methods, radio‐echo sounding (RES) and ice‐surface deformation. At sites where both are coincident, these methods typically provide conflicting interpretations about the ice‐bed interface. With

Perennially ice-covered lakes that are tightly sealed from the atmosphere represent a unique group of polar lakes. In these lakes, the δD-δ18O evolution of the water column and steady-state conditions are controlled by rates of recharge and freezing at ...

Circulation model for subglacial lakes [PDF]
A circulation model for Antarctic subglacial lakes is presented. This model differs from previous models used for Lake Vostok in that the momentum equations are non-hydrostatic.

Detecting and monitoring subglacial lakes beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]
In this thesis I develop novel methods and datasets, using airborne radio-echo sounding and high-resolution satellite-derived digital elevation models, to improve the understanding of subglacial lake distribution and activity beneath the Greenland Ice ...

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 ...

Monitoring Activity of the Subglacial Lake Mercer Based on CryoSat-2 and ICESat-2 Altimetry Data from 2011 to 2023 [PDF]
Active subglacial lakes are capable of exchanging and transporting water through water flow paths, thus having an important impact on ice sheet movement and even on the regional mass balance.
