Dynamical changes in contemporary ice sheets account for significant proportions of their current rates of mass loss, but assessing whether or not these processes are a natural part …
Abstract The West Antarctic ice sheet (WAIS), with ice volume equivalent to∼ 5 m of sea level, has long been considered capable of past and future catastrophic collapse,,. Today …
Abstract The Amundsen Sea sector is experiencing the largest mass loss, glacier acceleration, and grounding line retreat in Antarctica. Enhanced intrusion of Circumpolar …
To understand how planet Earth works we study it increasingly as a system–a collection of interdependent parts or spheres–the lithosphere, the hydrosphere, the cryosphere, the …
Episodic iceberg-discharge events from the Hudson Strait Ice Stream (HSIS) of the Laurentide Ice Sheet, referred to as Heinrich events, are commonly attributed to internal ice …
Ocean melting has thinned Antarctica's ice shelves at an increasing rate over the past two decades, leading to loss of grounded ice. The Ross Ice Shelf is currently close to steady …
