Environmental change and impacts in the Kangerlussuaq area, west Greenland
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018) -
Fluid flow and pore pressure development throughout the evolution of a trough mouth fan, western Barents Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Using a combination of geophysical and geotechnical data from Storfjorden Trough Mouth Fan off southern Svalbard, we investigate the hydrogeology of the continental margin and how this is affected by Quaternary glacial ... -
Geochemical signatures of pingo ice and its origin in Grøndalen, West Spitsbergen
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Pingos are common features in permafrost regions that form by subsurface massive-ice aggradation and create hill-like landforms. Pingos on Spitsbergen have been previously studied to explore their structure, formation ... -
Geometry and ice dynamics of the Darwin–Hatherton glacial system, Transantarctic Mountains
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The Darwin–Hatherton Glacial system (DHGS) connects the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) with the Ross Ice Shelf and is a key area for understanding past variations in ice thickness of surrounding ice masses. Here we present ... -
Geomorphological investigation of multiphase glacitectonic composite ridge systems in Svalbard
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Some surge-type glaciers on the High-Arctic archipelago of Svalbard have large glacitectonic composite ridge systems at their terrestrial margins. These have formed by rapid glacier advance into proglacial sediments during ... -
Glacier naled evolution and relation to the subglacial drainage system based on water chemistry and GPR surveys (Werenskioldbreen, SW Svalbard)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Glacier naledi are extrusive ice masses that appear in front of glaciers as a consequence of refreezing of meltwater seepage during the accumulation season. These structures provide a unique opportunity to understand ... -
GrSMBMIP: intercomparison of the modelled 1980-2012 surface mass balance over the Greenland Ice Sheet
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Observations and models agree that the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) surface mass balance (SMB) has decreased since the end of the 1990s due to an increase in meltwater runoff and that this trend will accelerate in the future. ... -
High-resolution ice sheet surface mass-balance and spatiotemporal runoff simulations: Kangerlussaq, West Greenland
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The spatiotemporal distribution of freshwater runoff from the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) determines the hydrographic and circulation conditions in Greenlandic fjords. The distribution of GrIS first-order atmospheric forcings, ... -
Ice-dammed lake and ice margin evolution during the Holocene in the Kangerlussuaq area of west Greenland
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)There is a lack of detailed information on the Holocene evolution of the west Greenland ice margin, not least because it was farther inland than at present and thus at present is covered by ice. Suggestions have been put ... -
Observed sediment and solute transport from the Kangerlussuaq sector of the Greenland Ice Sheet (2006–2016)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)New measurements of Watson River sediment and solute concentrations and an extended river discharge record improved by acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) measurements are used to calculate the total sediment and ... -
Reconciling Svalbard Glacier Mass Balance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Since the first estimates of Svalbard-wide glacier mass balance were made in the early 2000s, there has been great progress in remote sensing and modeling of mass balance, existing field records have been extended, field ... -
Reconstructing Greenland Ice Sheet meltwater discharge through the Watson River (1949–2017)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018) -
Spatial and temporal dynamics of dissolved organic carbon, chlorophyll, nutrients, and trace metals in maritime Antarctic snow and snowmelt
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Despite scientific interest in the investigation of biogeochemical changes in meltwaters of the Antarctic Peninsula, we still lack an understanding of the seasonal dynamics and release of dissolved and particulate carbon, ... -
Surface Air Temperature Fluctuations and Lapse Rates on Olivares Gamma Glacier, Rio Olivares Basin, Central Chile, from a Novel Meteorological Sensor Network
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Empirically based studies of glacier meteorology, especially for the Southern Hemisphere, are relatively sparse in the literature. Here, we use an innovative network of highly portable, low-cost thermometers to report on ...
