Subglacial lakes and their changing role in a warming climate
Subglacial lakes are repositories of ancient climate conditions, provide habitats for life and
modulate ice flow, basal hydrology, biogeochemical fluxes and geomorphic activity. In this …

Linking postglacial landscapes to glacier dynamics using swath radar at Thwaites Glacier, Antarctica
Ice sheets reshape Earth's surface. Maps of the landscape formed by past ice sheets are our
best tool for reconstructing historic ice sheet behavior. But models of glacier erosion and …

[HTML][HTML] Revealing the former bed of Thwaites Glacier using sea-floor bathymetry: implications for warm-water routing and bed controls on ice flow and buttressing
The geometry of the sea floor immediately beyond Antarctica's marine-terminating glaciers is
a fundamental control on warm-water routing, but it also describes former topographic …

Using surface velocities to calculate ice thickness and bed topography: a case study at Columbia Glacier, Alaska, USA
Information about glacier volume and ice thickness distribution is essential for many
glaciological applications, but direct measurements of ice thickness can be difficult and …

Ice flux divergence anomalies on 79north Glacier, Greenland
The ice flux divergence of a glacier is an important quantity to examine because it
determines the rate of temporal change of its thickness. Here, we combine high‐resolution …
