Surface mass balance (SMB) provides mass input to the surface of the Antarctic and
Greenland Ice Sheets and therefore comprises an important control on ice sheet mass …

The cycling of carbon on Earth exerts a fundamental influence upon the greenhouse gas
content of the atmosphere, and hence global climate over millennia. Until recently, ice …

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 …

Seasonal acceleration of the Greenland Ice Sheet is influenced by the dynamic response of
the subglacial hydrologic system to variability in meltwater delivery to the bed, via crevasses …

Abstract The Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets cover~\n10% of global land surface, but
are rarely considered as active components of the global iron cycle. The ocean waters …

Abstract The Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) is out of equilibrium with the current anthropogenic‐
enhanced climate forcing. Paleoenvironmental records and ice sheet models reveal that the …

Understanding Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) hydrology is essential for evaluating response of
ice dynamics to a warming climate and future contributions to global sea level rise. Recently …

The contribution of ice sheets to the global biogeochemical cycle of phosphorus is largely
unknown, due to the lack of field data. Here we present the first comprehensive study of …

Rapid changes in thickness and velocity have been observed at many marine-terminating
glaciers in Greenland, impacting the volume of ice they export, or discharge, from the ice …

Surface processes currently dominate Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) mass loss. We review
recent developments in the observation and modeling of GrIS surface mass balance (SMB) …
