Subglacial basins: Their origin and importance in glacial systems and landscapes
Closed topographic basins are found beneath contemporary ice masses and within the
footprint of former ice masses in all glaciated regions. We present the first integrated review …

How accurate are estimates of glacier ice thickness? Results from ITMIX, the Ice Thickness Models Intercomparison eXperiment
Knowledge of the ice thickness distribution of glaciers and ice caps is an important
prerequisite for many glaciological and hydrological investigations. A wealth of approaches …

A general theory of glacier surges
We present the first general theory of glacier surging that includes both temperate and
polythermal glacier surges, based on coupled mass and enthalpy budgets. Enthalpy (in the …

Channelized, distributed, and disconnected: subglacial drainage under a valley glacier in the Yukon
The subglacial drainage system is one of the main controls on basal sliding, but remains
only partially understood. Here we use an 8-year dataset of borehole observations on a …

Early 21st century glacier thickness changes in the Central Tien Shan
Although studies based on satellite gravimetry (2003− 2010) and laser altimetry (2003–
2009) measurements have achieved region-wide glacier mass change for the Tien Shan …

Dilation of subglacial sediment governs incipient surge motion in glaciers with deformable beds
BM Minchew, CR Meyer - Proceedings of the Royal …, 2020 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Glacier surges are quasi-periodic episodes of rapid ice flow that arise from increases in slip
rate at the ice–bed interface. The mechanisms that trigger and sustain surges are not well …

Investigating changes in basal conditions of Variegated Glacier prior to and during its 1982–1983 surge
M Jay-Allemand, F Gillet-Chaulet, O Gagliardini… - The …, 2011 - tc.copernicus.org
Variegated Glacier (Alaska) is known to surge periodically after a sufficient amount of
cumulative mass balance is reached, but this observation is difficult to link with changes in …

Propagating speedups during quiescence escalate to the 2020–2021 surge of Sít'Kusá, southeast Alaska
We use satellite image processing techniques to measure surface elevation and velocity
changes on a temperate surging glacier, Sít'Kusá, throughout its entire 2013–2021 surge …

Topographic controls on the surging behaviour of Sabche Glacier, Nepal (1967 to 2017)
Using a combination of Landsat, Pléiades and CORONA satellite imagery from 1967 to
2017, we map changes in the terminus position, ice surface velocity and surface elevation of …
