recommendations! Published in 2017 at "Annals of Glaciology"

DOI: 10.1017/aog.2017.24

Abstract: ABSTRACT The surface of the Ross Ice Shelf (RIS) is textured by flow stripes, crevasses and other features related to ice flow and deformation. Here, moderate resolution optical satellite images are used to map and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/aog.2018.31

Abstract: ABSTRACT Ice shelves regulate the rate of ice-sheet discharge along much of the Antarctic coastline. Pinning points, sites of localised grounding within floating ice, can in turn, regulate the flow and thickness of an ice… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2020gl091207

Abstract: Mass loss from Antarctica’s three largest ice shelves is dominated by calving, primarily of large tabular icebergs every few decades. Smaller, more frequent calving events also occur, but it is more difficult to detect them… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.ado6429

Abstract: Solar-warmed surface waters subduct beneath Antarctica’s ice shelves as a result of wind forcing, but this process is poorly observed and its interannual variability is yet to be assessed. We observe a 50-meter-thick intrusion of… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/acp-18-9723-2018

Abstract: Abstract. We use the 2B-GEOPROF-LIDAR R04 (2BGL4) and R05 (2BGL5) products and the 2B-CLDCLASS-LIDAR R04 (2BCL4) product, all generated by combining CloudSat radar and CALIPSO lidar satellite measurements with auxiliary data, to examine the vertical… read more here.
