Microbial ecology of mountain glacier ecosystems: biodiversity, ecological connections and implications of a warming climate
Glacier ecosystems are teeming with life on, beneath, and to a lesser degree, within their icy
masses. This conclusion largely stems from polar research, with less attention paid to …

Where glaciers meet water: Subaqueous melt and its relevance to glaciers in various settings
Glacier change is ubiquitous, but the fastest and largest magnitude changes occur in
glaciers that terminate in water. This includes the most rapidly retreating glaciers, and also …

Glacier shrinkage driving global changes in downstream systems
Glaciers cover∼ 10% of the Earth's land surface, but they are shrinking rapidly across most
parts of the world, leading to cascading impacts on downstream systems. Glaciers impart …
