The surface of ice exhibits the swath of phase-transition phenomena common to all
materials and as such it acts as an ideal test bed of both theory and experiment. It is readily …

Constraining how much and how fast the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) will change in the
coming decades has recently been identified as the highest priority in Antarctic research …

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 …

Ice flow models of the Antarctic ice sheet are commonly used to simulate its future evolution
in response to different climate scenarios and inform on the mass loss that would contribute …

Abstract Glaciers in High Mountain Asia have experienced heterogeneous rates of loss
since the 1970s. Yet, the associated changes in ice flow that lead to mass redistribution and …

The Greenland ice sheet is one of the largest contributors to global mean sea-level rise
today and is expected to continue to lose mass as the Arctic continues to warm. The two …

Increased ice velocities in Greenland are contributing significantly to eustatic sea level rise.
Faster ice flow has been associated with ice–ocean interactions in water-terminating outlet …

Over the past two decades, ice loss from the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) has increased
owing to enhanced surface melting and ice discharge to the ocean,,,–. Whether continuing …

Antarctica's ice shelves modulate the grounded ice flow, and weakening of ice shelves due
to climate forcing will decrease their 'buttressing'effect, causing a response in the grounded …

The choice of the best basal friction law to use in ice‐sheet models remains a source of
uncertainty in projections of sea level. The parameters in commonly used friction laws can …
