  • Global glacier dynamics during 100 ka Pleistocene glacial cycles 

    Hughes, PD; Gibbard, PL (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2018)
    <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Ice volume during the last ten 100 ka glacial cycles was driven by solar radiation flux in the Northern Hemisphere. Early minima in solar radiation combined with critical levels of ...

  • Seismic evidence for complex sedimentary control of Greenland Ice Sheet flow 

    Kulessa, B; Hubbard, AL; Booth, AD; Bougamont, MH; Dow, C; Doyle, SH; Christoffersen, P et al. (AAAS, 2017-08-02)
    The land-terminating margin of the Greenland Ice Sheet has slowed down in recent decades, although the causes and implications for future ice flow are unclear. Explained originally by a self-regulating mechanism where basal ...

  • Ground-penetrating radar measurements of debris thickness on Lirung Glacier, Nepal 

    McCarthy, M; Pritchard, H; Willis, IC; King, E (Cambridge University Press, 2017-06-01)
    Supraglacial debris thickness is a key control on the surface energy balance of debriscovered glaciers, yet debris thickness measurements are sparse due to difficulties of data collection. Here we use ground-penetrating ...
