The aims of this review are to:(a) describe and interpret structures in valley glaciers in
relation to strain history; and (b) to explore how these structures inform our understanding of …

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 …

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 …

Debris-covered glaciers in the Himalaya may have spatially-averaged rates of surface
height change that are similar to those observed on bare-ice glaciers, despite the insulating …

Ice sheet flow is strongly influenced by the nature and quantity of meltwater entering the
subglacial system. Accessing and monitoring contemporary drainage systems beneath ice …

We use interferometric synthetic aperture radar observations recorded in a land-terminating
sector of western Greenland to characterise the ice sheet surface hydrology and to quantify …

Surface melting on the Greenland Ice Sheet is common up to∼ 1400 m elevation and, in
extreme melt years, even higher. Water produced on the ice sheet surface collects in lakes …

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 …

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 …

The hydrological systems of heavily-downwasted debris-covered glaciers differ from those of
clean-ice glaciers due to the hummocky surface and debris mantle of such glaciers, leading …
