Abstract Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) deployed close to the seafloor can
acquire high-resolution geophysical data about the topography and shallow stratigraphy of …

Ice shelves control the dynamic mass loss of ice sheets through buttressing and their
integrity depends on the spatial variability of their basal mass balance (BMB), ie the …

Ice shelf thickness for the whole of Antarctica is derived from 4 years (2011–2014) of
CryoSat‐2 (CS2) radar altimetry measurements using the assumption that the shelves are in …

The Antarctic Peninsula has become an increasingly important component of the Antarctic
Ice Sheet mass budget over the last 2 decades, with mass losses generally increasing …

We present a reassessment of input‐output method ice mass budget estimates for the Abbot
and Getz regions of West Antarctica using CryoSat‐2‐derived ice thickness estimates. The …

Following the large-scale disintegration of the Larsen B Ice Shelf (LBIS) in 2002, ice flow
velocities for its remnants and tributary glaciers began to increase. In this study, we used …

Pockmarks are sea-floor depressions that form when gas or liquid escapes from underlying
sediments. Although they are a common feature of both glaciated and lower-latitude …

Firn density plays a crucial role in assessing the surface mass balance of the Antarctic ice
sheet. However, our understanding of the spatial and temporal variations in firn density is …
