Seasonal changes in ice sheet motion due to melt water lubrication

IJ Hewitt - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2013 - Elsevier
A numerical model is used to calculate how the motion of an idealized ice-sheet margin is
affected by the subglacial drainage of melt water from its surface. The model describes the …

Climatic control on seasonal variations in mountain glacier surface velocity

U Nanni, D Scherler, F Ayoub, R Millan… - The …, 2023 - tc.copernicus.org
Accurate measurements of ice flow are essential to predict future changes in glaciers and
ice caps. Glacier displacement can in principle be measured on the large scale by cross …

Channelized, distributed, and disconnected: subglacial drainage under a valley glacier in the Yukon

C Rada, C Schoof - The Cryosphere, 2018 - tc.copernicus.org
The subglacial drainage system is one of the main controls on basal sliding, but remains
only partially understood. Here we use an 8-year dataset of borehole observations on a …

Iceberg melting substantially modifies oceanic heat flux towards a major Greenlandic tidewater glacier

BJ Davison, TR Cowton, FR Cottier, AJ Sole - Nature communications, 2020 - nature.com
Fjord dynamics influence oceanic heat flux to the Greenland ice sheet. Submarine iceberg
melting releases large volumes of freshwater within Greenland's fjords, yet its impact on fjord …

Extensive winter subglacial water storage beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet

W Chu, DM Schroeder, H Seroussi… - Geophysical …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Surface meltwater that reaches the base of the Greenland Ice Sheet exerts a fundamental
impact on ice flow, but observations of catchment‐wide movement and distribution of …
