Iceberg calving accounts for half of the mass discharge from the Greenland and Antarctic ice
sheets, which has increased dramatically over the last two decades. Through their …

Tropical hydroclimatic events, characterized by extreme regional rainfall anomalies, were a
recurrent feature of marine isotope stages 2–4 and involved some of the most abrupt and …

Founding populations of the first Americans likely occupied parts of Beringia during the Last
Glacial Maximum (LGM). The timing, pathways, and modes of their southward transit remain …

In December 2020, giant tabular iceberg A68a (surface area 3900 km2) broke up in open
ocean much deeper than its keel, indicating that the breakage was not immediately caused …

Expanding agriculture, rising global population, and shifts in climate are placing increasing
demands on existing water resources, especially in regions currently experiencing extreme …

Ice scours are formed when the keels of floating icebergs or sea ice hummocks penetrate
unlithified seabed sediments. Until now, ice scours have been divided into “relict” and …

During the last glacial period (120–12 ka), the Laurentide ice sheet discharged large
numbers of icebergs into the North Atlantic. These icebergs carried sediments that were …

Abstract In the North Atlantic, relatively coarse grained sediments can be found periodically
throughout sediment cores spanning the Last Glacial Period. These sediments were rafted …

Baffin Bay is the travel destination of most icebergs calving from west Greenland. They
commonly follow the bay's cyclonic circulation and might end up far south along the coast of …

The study of the history of ice sheet retreat provides important insights into the interaction
between ice sheets and oceans, especially under a sustained warming climate. The decay …
