    The instability theory of drumlin formation and its explanation of their varied composition and internal structure by Stokes, C, Fowler, A, Clark, C, Hindmarsh, R, Spagnolo, M

    Published 2013
    “…Despite their importance in understanding glaciological processes and constraining large-scale flow patterns in palaeo-glaciology, there is little consensus as to how drumlins are formed. …”

    Parallel Local Approximation MCMC for Expensive Models by Conrad, Patrick Raymond, Davis, Andrew Donaldson, Marzouk, Youssef M, Pillai, Natesh S, Smith, Aaron Robin

    Published 2019
    “…We investigate the practical performance of our approach using two challenging inference problems, the first in subsurface hydrology and the second in glaciology. Using local approximations constructed via parallel chains, we successfully reduce the run time needed to characterize the posterior distributions in these problems from days to hours and from months to days, respectively, dramatically improving the tractability of Bayesian inference.…”

    A baseline-combination method for precise estimation of ice motion in antarctica by Zhou, Y, Zhou, C, Dongchen, E, Wang, Z

    Published 2013
    “… <p style="text-align:justify;"> Differential synthetic aperture radar interferometry (D-InSAR) is a powerful method for measuring surface deformation, such as in studies of the earthquake cycle, volcano deformation monitoring, land subsidence monitoring, and glaciological studies. However, its application to glaciological studies is limited by the lack of accurate digital elevation models (DEMs), particularly over the Antarctic ice sheet. …”

    Magnetic measurements of Greenland and Himalayan ice-core samples by Sahota, J, Mayewski, P, Oldfield, F, al., E

    Published 1996
    “…This paper summarizes Isothermal Remanence (IRM300mT) measurements from Holocene ice-core samples from two contrasting glaciological regimes: (i) the Greenland ice sheet and (ii) a Himalayan glacier. …”

    On the rheology of till by Fowler, A

    Published 2003
    “…In this paper I will examine some of the dynamic consequences of this latter assumption, and show how the dichotomy between viscous and plastic may be less clear-cut than previously thought. © International Glaciological Society.…”

    Insights from geodynamic models into ice flow, mantle magmatism, and their interactions by Clerc, Fiona

    Published 2023
    “…This thesis next explores glaciological factors controlling WAIS stability, associated with the fracturing of ice sheet margins supported by floating ice shelves. …”

    Array processing in cryoseismology: a comparison to network-based approaches at an Antarctic ice stream by Hudson, TS, Brisbourne, AM, Kufner, S-K, Kendall, J, Smith, A

    Published 2023
    “…Seismicity at glaciers, ice sheets, and ice shelves provides observational constraint on a number of glaciological processes. Detecting and locating this seismicity, specifically icequakes, is a necessary first step in studying processes such as basal slip, crevassing, imaging ice fabric, and iceberg calving, for example. …”

    Moisture generation and transport at ice stream margins by Gyorffy, A

    Published 2016
    “…However, current efforts to include meltwater in glaciological models do not fully couple the dynamic ows of ice and water necessary in describing the full physics in these temperate zones and hence the physics of ice stream margins.…”

    Subglacial water storage in an Alpine glacier by Rutter, N, Nick Rutter

    Published 2002
    “…As glaciers are capable of modifying peak flows and releasing floodwaters, understanding and developing models of subglacial water storage and release has significance to the safety of resident populations and land use decision-making.</p><p> Glaciological and hydrometeorological processes play a critical role in determining water storage within the subglacial drainage system of Alpine glaciers. …”
