Preliminary Analysis of Life within a Former Subglacial Lake Sediment in Antarctica
Diversity, 2013 Since the first descriptions of Antarctic subglacial lakes, there has been a growing interest and awareness of the possibility that life will exist and potentially thrive in these unique and little known environments. The unusual combination of selection

Monitoring Activity of the Subglacial Lake Mercer Based on CryoSat-2 and ICESat-2 Altimetry Data from 2011 to 2023 [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information SciencesActive 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.

Dynamic subglacial meltwater history archived in Antarctic subglacial lake sediments
Geological Society of America BulletinAbstract 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 ...

Subglacial lakes and jökulhlaups in Iceland
Global and Planetary Change, 2003 Active volcanoes and hydrothermal systems underlie ice caps in Iceland. Glacier-volcano interactions produce meltwater that either drains toward the glacier margin or accumulates in subglacial lakes. Accumulated meltwater drains periodically in jokulhlaups from the subglacial lakes and occasionally during volcanic eruptions.

Annals of Glaciology, 2019 Late Holocene sediment deposits in Pine Island Bay, West Antarctica, are hypothesized to be linked to intensive meltwater drainage during the retreat of the paleo-Pine Island Ice Stream after the Last Glacial Maximum. The uppermost sediment units show an

Active-source seismic characterization of subglacial lakes: numerical modeling, field validation, and implications for Antarctic exploration [PDF]
The CryosphereSubglacial lakes offer unique opportunities to study ice sheet dynamics, microbial life, and climate evolution. Motivated by the upcoming seismic survey of Qilin Subglacial Lake, this study constructs a representative subglacial lake model and extends it
