Ice sheets as a significant source of highly reactive nanoparticulate iron to the oceans [PDF]
, 2014 The Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets cover ~\n10% of global land surface, but are rarely considered as active components of the global iron cycle. The ocean waters around both ice sheets harbour highly productive coastal ecosystems, many of which are ...

Physiological Ecology of Microorganisms in Subglacial Lake Whillans [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Subglacial microbial habitats are widespread in glaciated regions of our planet. Some of these environments have been isolated from the atmosphere and from sunlight for many thousands of years. Consequently, ecosystem processes must rely on energy gained from the oxidation of inorganic substrates or detrital organic matter.

Analysis of long-term dynamic changes of subglacial lakes in the Recovery Ice Stream, Antarctica [PDF]
The CryosphereThe dynamic activity of subglacial lakes plays a crucial role in modulating glacial processes and the mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet. The Recovery Ice Stream (RIS), projected to experience significant mass loss in East Antarctica during coming ...

Antarctic subglacial hydrology: current knowledge and future challenges [PDF]
, 2014 Flood-carved landforms across the deglaciated terrain of Victoria Land, East Antarctica, provide convincing geomorphological evidence for the existence of subglacial drainage networks beneath the Antarctic ice sheet, and motivate research into the ...

Deep Clustering in Radar Subglacial Reflector Reveals New Subglacial Lakes
, 2023 Abstract. Ice-penetrating radar (IPR) imaging is a valuable tool for observing the internal structure and bottom of ice sheets. Subglacial water bodies, also known as subglacial lakes, generally appear as distinct, bright, flat, and continuous reflections in IPR images.

Drainage networks, lakes and water fluxes beneath the Antarctic ice sheet
Annals of Glaciology, 2016 Antarctica Bedmap2 datasets are used to calculate subglacial hydraulic potential and the area, depth and volume of hydraulic potential sinks. There are over 32 000 contiguous sinks, which can be thought of as predicted lakes.
