This paper presents a comprehensive review and synthesis of ice streams in the Laurentide
Ice Sheet (LIS) based on a new mapping inventory that includes previously hypothesised ice …

Recent advances in the determination of the mass balance of polar ice sheets show that the
Greenland Ice Sheet is losing mass by near-coastal thinning, and that the West Antarctic Ice …

We present a reference, comprehensive, high-resolution, digital mosaic of ice motion in
Antarctica assembled from multiple satellite interferometric synthetic-aperture radar data …

Abstract Fluctuations in Antarctic Ice Sheet elevation and mass occur over a variety of time
scales, owing to changes in snowfall and ice flow. Here we disentangle these signals by …

A daptation refers to adjustments in ecological, social, or economic systems in response to
actual or expected climatic stimuli and their effects or impacts. It refers to changes in …

Using RADARSAT synthetic aperture radar data, we have mapped the flow velocity over
much of the Greenland ice sheet for the winters of 2000/01 and 2005/06. These maps …

随着合成孔径雷达(SAR) 卫星的不断发射, 合成孔径雷达干涉测量技术(interferometric synthetic
aperture radar, InSAR) 得到前所未有的发展机遇, 同时也面临诸多挑战. 本文首先简要介绍了 …

This chapter assesses the current state of knowledge of the rate of change of global-
averaged and regional sea-level in relation to climate change. We focus on the 20th and …

To understand how planet Earth works we study it increasingly as a system–a collection of
interdependent parts or spheres–the lithosphere, the hydrosphere, the cryosphere, the …

The third edition of this successful textbook will supply advanced undergraduate and
graduate students with the tools they need to understand modern glaciological research …
