In recent decades, the land-ocean aquatic continuum, commonly defined as the interface, or
transition zone, between terrestrial ecosystems and the open ocean, has undergone …

Structures and deformation in glaciers and ice sheets

SJA Jennings, MJ Hambrey - Reviews of Geophysics, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
The aims of this review are to:(a) describe and interpret structures in valley glaciers in
relation to strain history; and (b) to explore how these structures inform our understanding of …

Annual mass budget of Antarctic ice shelves from 1997 to 2021

BJ Davison, AE Hogg, N Gourmelen, L Jakob… - Science …, 2023 - science.org
Antarctic ice shelves moderate the contribution of the Antarctic Ice Sheet to global sea level
rise; however, ice shelf health remains poorly constrained. Here, we present the annual …

Stability of Ice Shelves and Ice Cliffs in a Changing Climate

JN Bassis, A Crawford, SB Kachuck… - Annual Review of …, 2024 - annualreviews.org
The largest uncertainty in future sea-level rise is loss of ice from the Greenland and Antarctic
Ice Sheets. Ice shelves, freely floating platforms of ice that fringe the ice sheets, play a …

Interannual flow dynamics driven by frontal retreat of a lake-terminating glacier in the Chinese Central Himalaya

Q Liu, C Mayer, X Wang, Y Nie, K Wu, J Wei… - Earth and Planetary …, 2020 - Elsevier
Most lake-terminating glaciers in the Himalaya retreat rapidly due to periodic frontal ice loss
at their terminus, but long-term observations are still limited regarding their flow dynamics …

[HTML][HTML] Impact of icebergs on the seasonal submarine melt of Sermeq Kujalleq

K Kajanto, F Straneo, K Nisancioglu - The Cryosphere, 2023 - tc.copernicus.org
The role of icebergs in narrow fjords hosting marine-terminating glaciers in Greenland is
poorly understood, even though iceberg melt results in a substantial freshwater flux that can …

[HTML][HTML] Iceberg calving: regimes and transitions

RB Alley, KM Cuffey, JN Bassis, KE Alley… - Annual Review of …, 2023 - annualreviews.org
Uncertainty about sea-level rise is dominated by uncertainty about iceberg calving, mass
loss from glaciers or ice sheets by fracturing. Review of the rapidly growing calving literature …

Elastic deformation plays a non-negligible role in Greenland's outlet glacier flow

J Christmann, V Helm, SA Khan, T Kleiner… - … Earth & Environment, 2021 - nature.com
Future projections of global mean sea level change are uncertain, partly because of our
limited understanding of the dynamics of Greenland's outlet glaciers. Here we study …

[HTML][HTML] Damage detection on antarctic ice shelves using the normalised radon transform

M Izeboud, S Lhermitte - Remote Sensing of Environment, 2023 - Elsevier
Areas of structural damage mechanically weaken Antarctic ice shelves. This potentially
preconditions ice shelves for disintegration and enhanced grounding line retreat. The …

Atmospheric extremes caused high oceanward sea surface slope triggering the biggest calving event in more than 50 years at the Amery Ice Shelf

D Francis, KS Mattingly, S Lhermitte, M Temimi… - The …, 2021 - tc.copernicus.org
Ice shelf instability is one of the main sources of uncertainty in Antarctica's contribution to
future sea level rise. Calving events play a crucial role in ice shelf weakening but remain …
