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 ...

Source of Lake Vostok Cations Constrained with Strontium Isotopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Lake Vostok is the largest sub-glacial lake in Antarctica. The primary source of our current knowledge regarding the geochemistry and biology of the lake comes from the analysis of refrozen lake water associated with ice core drilling. Several sources of

Dynamic subglacial meltwater history archived in Antarctic subglacial lake sediments

open access: yesGeological Society of America Bulletin
Abstract There is a paucity of records on decadal to millennial scales archiving the evolution of the Antarctic subglacial hydrologic system, leaving a gap in our knowledge of the links between meltwater drainage and ice behavior. We employed a suite of sedimentological and geochemical methods to assess the stratigraphic distribution of ...

Monitoring Activity of the Subglacial Lake Mercer Based on CryoSat-2 and ICESat-2 Altimetry Data from 2011 to 2023 [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
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.

Controls on rapid supraglacial lake drainage in West Greenland: An Exploratory Data Analysis approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The controls on rapid surface lake drainage on the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) remain uncertain, making it challenging to incorporate lake drainage into models of GrIS hydrology, and so to determine the ice-dynamic impact of meltwater reaching the ice ...

Methane Beneath Greenlands Ice Sheet Is Being Released [PDF]

open access: yes
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, but a complete accounting of global methane sources and sinks is still ongoing. Sediments beneath glaciers and ice sheets harbour carbon reserves that, under certain conditions, can be converted to methane.

Dynamic Boundaries of Antarctic Active Subglacial Lakes Reveal Underestimated Water Volume Change and Overestimated Lakebed Active Area

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
This study revisited 158 documented active subglacial lakes across Antarctica, applying a height‐change anomaly delineation algorithm to CryoSat‐2 and ICESat‐2 satellite altimetry data to assemble a 14.75‐year (2010.5–2025.25) time series of active ...

Jökulhlaups in Iceland : sources, release and drainage

open access: yes, 2010
Jökulhlaups in Iceland may originate from marginal or subglacial sources of water melted by atmospheric processes, permanent geothermal heat or volcanic eruptions.
