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 …

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 …

The stability of ice sheets and their contributions to sea level are modulated by high-
pressure water that lubricates the base of the ice, facilitating rapid flow into the ocean. In …

Ice shelf basal melting is the primary mechanism driving mass loss from the Antarctic Ice
Sheet, yet it is unknown how the localized melt enhancement from subglacial discharge will …

Petermann Glacier is a major outlet glacier of northern Greenland that drains a marine‐
based basin vulnerable to destabilization from enhanced oceanic and atmospheric forcings …

Subglacial hydrology plays a key role in many glaciological processes, including ice
dynamics via the modulation of basal sliding. Owing to the lack of an overarching theory …

Abstract Antarctica's Getz Ice Shelf has been rapidly thinning in recent years, producing
more meltwater than any other ice shelf in the world. The influx of fresh water is known to …

Major uncertainties in the response of ice sheets to environmental forcing are due to
subglacial processes. These processes pertain to the type of sliding or friction law as well as …

Surface melt forces summertime ice‐flow accelerations on glaciers and ice sheets. Here, we
show that large meltwater‐forced accelerations also occur during wintertime in Greenland …

Abstract Aurora Subglacial Basin (ASB), which feeds Totten Glacier, is a marine basin lying
below sea level and contains up to 3.5 m of global sea level equivalent. Rates of future sea …
