Ocean tide influences on the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets

L Padman, MR Siegfried, HA Fricker - Reviews of Geophysics, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Ocean tides are the main source of high‐frequency variability in the vertical and horizontal
motion of ice sheets near their marine margins. Floating ice shelves, which occupy about …

Shear dilation of subglacial till results in time-dependent sliding laws

KLP Warburton, DR Hewitt… - Proceedings of the …, 2023 - royalsocietypublishing.org
The dynamics of glacial sliding over water-saturated tills are poorly constrained and difficult
to capture realistically in large-scale models. Experiments characterize till as a plastic …

Data‐driven inference of the mechanics of slip along glacier beds using physics‐informed neural networks: Case study on rutford ice stream, Antarctica

B Riel, B Minchew, T Bischoff - Journal of Advances in …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Reliable projections of sea‐level rise depend on accurate representations of how fast‐
flowing glaciers slip along their beds. The mechanics of slip are often parameterized as a …

A unified model for transient subglacial water pressure and basal sliding

VC Tsai, LC Smith, AS Gardner, H Seroussi - Journal of Glaciology, 2022 - cambridge.org
Changes in water pressure at the beds of glaciers greatly modify their sliding rate, affecting
rates of ice mass loss and sea level change. However, there is still no agreement about the …

Tide-modulated ice motion and seismicity of a floating glacier tongue in East Antarctica

M Minowa, EA Podolskiy, S Sugiyama - Annals of Glaciology, 2019 - cambridge.org
We recorded the ice motion and icequakes on the floating part of Langhovde Glacier in East
Antarctica to better understand the dynamic behavior of ice shelves and floating tongues …

Observing tidal effects on the dynamics of the Ekström Ice Shelf with focus on quarterdiurnal and terdiurnal periods

T Fromm, V Schlindwein, V Helm, V Fofonova - Journal of Glaciology, 2023 - cambridge.org
Antarctica's ice shelves stabilize the ice sheet and, therefore, understanding processes
affecting the mass budgets of ice shelves is important for estimating grounded ice loss. To …
