While there are numerous hypotheses concerning glacial–interglacial environmental and
climatic regime shifts in the Arctic Ocean, a holistic view on the Northern Hemisphere's late …

Reconstructing the growth and decay of palaeo-ice sheets is critical to understanding
mechanisms of global climate change and associated sea-level fluctuations in the past …

Bathymetry (seafloor depth), is a critical parameter providing the geospatial context for a
multitude of marine scientific studies. Since 1997, the International Bathymetric Chart of the …

The hypothesis of a km-thick ice shelf covering the entire Arctic Ocean during peak glacial
conditions was proposed nearly half a century ago. Floating ice shelves preserve few direct …

Coinciding with global warming, Arctic sea ice has rapidly decreased during the last four
decades and climate scenarios suggest that sea ice may completely disappear during …

Abstract During the Pleistocene glaciations, Arctic ice sheets on western Eurasia, Greenland
and North America terminated at their continental margins,,,. In contrast, the exposed …

Studies of past glacial cycles yield critical information about climate and sea-level (ice-
volume) variability, including the sensitivity of climate to radiative change, and impacts of …

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 …

A comprehensive inventory of High Arctic cross-shelf troughs is compiled from International
Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean (IBCAO) bathymetric data (v. 3.0). The location of 75 …

Glacimarine processes affect about 20% of the global ocean today, and this area expanded
considerably under cyclical full-glacial conditions during the Quaternary (Fig. 1)(Dowdeswell …
