Antarctic icebergs reorganize ocean circulation during Pleistocene glacials
The dominant feature of large-scale mass transfer in the modern ocean is the Atlantic
meridional overturning circulation (AMOC). The geometry and vigour of this circulation …

Measurements of iceberg melt rates using high‐resolution GPS and iceberg surface scans
KM Schild, DA Sutherland, P Elosegui… - Geophysical …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Increasing freshwater input to the subpolar North Atlantic through iceberg melting can
influence fjord‐scale to basin‐scale ocean circulation. However, the magnitude, timing, and …

Monitoring Greenland ice sheet buoyancy-driven calving discharge using glacial earthquakes
Since the 2000s, Greenland ice sheet mass loss has been accelerating, followed by
increasing numbers of glacial earthquakes (GEs) at near-grounded glaciers. GEs are …

Parameterizing tabular‐iceberg decay in an ocean model
Large tabular icebergs account for the majority of ice mass calved from Antarctic ice shelves,
but are omitted from climate models. Specifically, these models do not account for iceberg …

Tracking icebergs with time-lapse photography and sparse optical flow, LeConte Bay, Alaska, 2016–2017
We present a workflow to track icebergs in proglacial fjords using oblique time-lapse photos
and the Lucas-Kanade optical flow algorithm. We employ the workflow at LeConte Bay …

Modeling tabular icebergs submerged in the ocean
Large tabular icebergs calved from Antarctic ice shelves have long lifetimes (due to their
large size), during which they drift across large distances, altering ambient ocean circulation …
