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
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
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
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] Iceberg calving: regimes and transitions
Uncertainty about sea-level rise is dominated by uncertainty about iceberg calving, mass

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
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 …
