Recent observations of dynamic water systems beneath the Greenland and Antarctic ice
sheets have sparked renewed interest in modelling subglacial drainage. The foundations of …

Understanding Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) hydrology is essential for evaluating response of
ice dynamics to a warming climate and future contributions to global sea level rise. Recently …

The manner by which meltwater drains through a glacier is critical to ice dynamics, runoff
characteristics, and water quality. However, much of the contemporary knowledge relating to …

The rapid drainage of supraglacial lakes around the ablation zone of the Greenland Ice
Sheet forms an important link between water at the surface and the ice sheet base, allowing …

Subsurface microbial oxidation of overridden soils and vegetation beneath glaciers and ice
sheets may affect global carbon budgets on glacial–interglacial timescales. The likelihood …

Supraglacial lakes (SGLs) form annually on the Greenland ice sheet, and, when they drain,
their discharge enhances ice-sheet flow by lubricating the base and potentially by warming …

Glaciological observations of under‐flooding suggest that fluid‐induced hydraulic fracture of
an ice sheet from its bed sometimes occurs quickly, possibly driven by turbulently flowing …

Abstract Purpose of the Review This review discusses the role that meltwater plays within
the Greenland ice sheet system. The ice sheet's hydrology is important because it affects …

Water-driven fracture propagation beneath supraglacial lakes rapidly transports large
volumes of surface meltwater to the base of the Greenland Ice Sheet. These drainage events …

Supraglacial lakes are an important component of the Greenland Ice Sheet's mass balance
and hydrology, with their drainage affecting ice dynamics. This study uses imagery from the …
