The manner by which meltwater drains through a glacier is critical to ice dynamics, runoff
characteristics, and water quality. However, much of the contemporary knowledge relating to …

Ideas about the character and evolution of englacial drainage systems have been deeply
influenced by the theoretical model developed by Shreve [1972. Movement of water in …

Glaciers and Glaciation is the classic textbook for all students of glaciation. Stimulating and
accessible, it has established a reputation as a comprehensive and essential resource. In …

Atmospheric warming is increasing surface melting across the Antarctic Peninsula, with
unknown impacts upon glacier dynamics at the ice-bed interface. Using high-resolution …

Recent work has shown that surface-to-bed drainage systems re-form annually on parts of
the Greenland ice sheet and some High Arctic glaciers, leading to speed-up events soon …

Natural environmental isotopes of nitrate and ammonium are used in conjunction with major
ion chemistry and hydrological data to establish controls upon the biogeochemical cycling of …

Kronebreen and Kongsbreen are among the fastest-flowing glaciers on Svalbard and,
therefore, important contributors to the total dynamic mass loss from the archipelago. Here …

Glacier velocity is one of the important parameters to know about glacier dynamics, its mass
and health. Understanding glacier velocity also assists in the analysis of ice thickness, ice …

On uncrevassed regions of polythermal glaciers, englacial conduits can form by incision of
supraglacial stream channels followed by roof closure. The origin and evolution of examples …

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are being increasingly used in glaciology demonstrating
their potential for the generation of high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) that can …
