Submarine melting of glaciers in Greenland amplified by atmospheric warming
Rapid ice loss from the Greenland ice sheet since 1992 is due in equal parts to increased
surface melting and accelerated ice flow. The latter is conventionally attributed to ocean …

Geomorphology and 10Be chronology of the Last Glacial Maximum and deglaciation in northeastern Patagonia, 43 S-71 W
Abstract In southern South America, well-dated glacial geomorphological records constrain
the last glacial cycle across much of the former Patagonian Ice Sheet, but its northeastern …

Melting of glacier ice enhanced by bursting air bubbles
Feedbacks between ice melt, glacier flow and ocean circulation can rapidly accelerate ice
loss at tidewater glaciers and alter projections of sea-level rise. At the core of these …
