Thermal structure of Svalbard glaciers and implications for thermal switch models of glacier surging
H Sevestre, DI Benn, NRJ Hulton… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Switches between cold‐and warm‐based conditions have long been invoked to explain
surges of High Arctic glaciers. Here we compile existing and new data on the thermal regime …

From high friction zone to frontal collapse: dynamics of an ongoing tidewater glacier surge, Negribreen, Svalbard
Negribreen, a tidewater glacier located in central eastern Svalbard, began actively surging
after it experienced an initial collapse in summer 2016. The surge resulted in horizontal …

[HTML][HTML] Kinematic evolution of kilometre-scale fold trains in surge-type glaciers explored with a numerical model
Glacier surging provides a window into the processes responsible for some of the fastest ice
flow on Earth. Surge-type glaciers are festooned with fold trains—many visible from space …

Former dynamic behaviour of a cold-based valley glacier on Svalbard revealed by basal ice and structural glaciology investigations
Large numbers of small valley glaciers on Svalbard were thicker and more extensive during
the Little Ice Age (LIA), demonstrated by prominent ice-cored moraines up to several …

Debris entrainment and landform genesis during tidewater glacier surges
The englacial entrainment of basal debris during surges presents an opportunity to
investigate processes acting at the glacier bed. The subsequent melt‐out of debris‐rich …

Glacitectonism, subglacial and glacilacustrine processes during a Neoproterozoic panglaciation, north‐east Svalbard
Palaeoenvironmental reconstruction of Neoproterozoic successions has been the subject of
long‐standing debate, particularly concerning the interpretation of diamictites. The …
