DOI: 10.1038/s41467-019-12039-2
Abstract: Atmospheric warming is increasing surface melting across the Antarctic Peninsula, with unknown impacts upon glacier dynamics at the ice-bed interface. Using high-resolution satellite-derived ice velocity data, optical satellite imagery and regional climate modelling, we show… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tgrs.2025.3542828
Abstract: Basal roughness is a crucial parameter for quantifying subglacial geomorphological landforms, which offers key insights into glacial geomorphic environments and ice sheet dynamics. Princess Elizabeth Land (PEL) in East Antarctica covers approximately 15% of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/bor.70002
Abstract: Basal conditions that facilitate fast ice flow are still poorly understood and their parameterization in ice‐flow models results in high uncertainties in ice‐flow and consequent sea‐level rise projections. Direct observations of basal conditions beneath modern… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/feart.2018.00161
Abstract: Flowlines on ice sheets and glaciers form complex patterns. To explore their role in ice routing and extend the language for studying such patterns, we develop a theory of flow convergence and curvature in plan… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/feart.2019.00010
Abstract: Coupling between runoff, hydrology, basal motion, and mass loss (“hydrology-dynamics”) is a critical component of the Greenland Ice Sheet system. Despite considerable research effort, the mechanisms by which runoff influences ice dynamics and the net… read more here.
