Coupling between runoff, hydrology, basal motion, and mass loss (“hydrology-dynamics”) is
a critical component of the Greenland Ice Sheet system. Despite considerable research …

Meltwater drainage through ice sheets has recently been a key focus of glaciological
research due to its influence on the dynamics of ice sheets in a warming climate. However …

Seasonal acceleration of the Greenland Ice Sheet is influenced by the dynamic response of
the subglacial hydrologic system to variability in meltwater delivery to the bed, via crevasses …

Since the first estimates of Svalbard-wide glacier mass balance were made in the early
2000s, there has been great progress in remote sensing and modeling of mass balance …

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 …

Penetration of surface meltwater to the bed of the Greenland Ice Sheet each summer causes
an initial increase in ice speed due to elevated basal water pressure, followed by slowdown …

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 …

We identify and map visible traces of subglacial meltwater drainage around the former
Keewatin Ice Divide, Canada, from high-resolution Arctic Digital Elevation Model …

On most glaciers and ice sheet outlets the majority of motion is due to basal slip, a
combination of basal sliding and bed deformation. The importance of basal water in …

In a warming climate, surface meltwater production on large ice sheets is expected to
increase. If this water is delivered to the ice sheet base it may have important consequences …
